Friends of mine have expressed on Facebook a sense that the emergence of the Coronavirus may be the beginning of the days of Revelation.📷
We do not think so.

What do you think? Are we entering the end times?
We suggest that there is another story in the Bible, which may offer reflection on today. And how does the Black Lives Matter relate to the challenges of the virus?
July 1, 2020 ... Each day something new is happening as the Coronavirus surges to higher and higher infections... visit our webpage that discusses a solution and return to comment. May 22, 2020 ...

It is not the time of Revelation, but let's remember that, at the end of the time of Revelation, Jesus will come again and bring the world together as "one world" not as separate nationalistic states.
This virus spread, in part, because of…
