The Conclusion-of-the-Age

DavidSon Warns People of Faith

Flower Mound, TX, Preachers in churches across America have used the term, “these are the last days” for years mentioning earth quakes, wars and rumors of wars and similar calamities.   

However, these warnings have validity like no other time in history according to Dr.Steven B. DavidSon who calls this period, the conclusion-of-the-age. 

“It has been two-thousand years since the Church’s early believers expected the imminent return of Jesus Christ.  However, we have the advantage of time and historic events now.  Obviously, in order for the things to occur that are revealed in end-time Scripture such as Revelation, Daniel and throughout the Bible, world-wide staging was required.  As an example, governments must have a united cause to work together. This has happened with the advent of nuclear weapons and particularly the terrorism threat.   Economies had to be interdependent, which is the case today.  Additionally, technology had to be in place to monitor and control people world-wide.”

DavidSon who completed his first scholarly study in the field of Eschatology or end-times in the 1970s at Simpson University a Christian college currently in Northern California has been watching these developments for more than three decades.  “There are persons who have been eyeing these conditions longer than I have.  However, we miss the point completely if we are obsessed with this topic, or ignore it altogether.”  

DavidSon a leading-edge Christian educator, and nation’s preeminent Christ-based Counselor highlights the most critical end-time themes and their sequence in his book, the Believer from Milk-to-Maturity.  He further supports his position by citing the brazen sexual immorality, collapse of family, rampant fear and hopelessness, and religious instability as documented by the recent Pew Religious Landscape Survey.      

When asked about what he views as the next events to observe, he reveals, “I’ve written in my book to look world-wide for the rise of a charismatic personality.  Eventually, this person will be the combination of a religious, military and political leader.  Also, expect an effort to reign-in and unify all religious groups into one belief or faith union.  Religion is the most feared threat to governments and their financiers today in my opinion.  Anyone who believes they will always have religious freedom is in denial.   I’m not saying this will happen, but imagine a cataclysmic event in the U.S. where the perpetrator is identified as people of faith.  Whether true or not, the general public will cry for control of religious groups if it will make them safer.  We have the post 9/11 experience as an example where the public willingly sacrificed personal rights in the name of security improvements. Historically, the precedent was set with Roman emperor Nero who blamed Christians for a major calamity, which led to mass persecutions.”

Finally, DavidSon revealed what this means to the typical person. “It probably means nothing to the typical person.  But to persons in Jesus Christ, it is important to forget petty issues, be watchful for deceptive Christian leaders, and focus on what is most important.”  He also warns persons who believe they’ll be caught-up or “raptured” before any type of global persecution.  DavidSon shares that he hopes for the same, but no one can be completely sure.  “The timing of a messianic rapture before any persecution could be one of the most misleading concepts shared among Christians.  Since Jesus taught His followers to be ready, believers were not wrong to expect His return at any time.  However, we have history to demonstrate that there’s no assurance that Christians will be delivered from the wrath of man.” DavidSon offers a video clip on this topic and more at M2maturity.org
