Complaints are replete on social media, and everywhere people gather to sip coffee and opine about the world's ills. Something is wrong with American society. A few years ago, people were saying, "I don't know how it can get worse." It is worse and going to get worse. The reality and angst of watching it disintegrate have pressed many people into apathy. They have latched onto the belief that God will not permit them to suffer the consequences of the world's wicked rebellion. Instead, Christ will snatch them off the earth and out of danger during a split-second secret coming.

There is an alternative to apathy and fantastical notions. It is the central focus of biblical eschatology, the superwhelming, glorioustounding, megamiraculous return of the King of kings.
