People have predicted the Return of Christ since 33 A.D. Even Martin Luther thought it would be in his lifetime. Each year someone seems to predict the return and sell plane tickets to Jerusalem.
What is unique about the 2022 predictions is they are by diverse groups such as rabbis, pastors, and even unbelievers like Muslims and secularists; remember the Magi were astrologers and they were lead by the Star of Bethlehem to Jesus’ birth. Usually predictions of Christ’s return are from one person, a minister or pastor, but there are actually a diversity of predictors from rabbis to russian bishop and beyond:
A Rabbi says Jesus will return in 2022:
Muslim Imam says Jesus will return 2022:
Russian Patriarchate (Top Bishop) says end of human history is soon:
Preacher says Jesus is coming soon:
Doomsday clock near Midnight:
Ronda Rousey, a MMA fighter asmitted to Cohen O’brien she is becoming a doomsday prepper:
While I was in Jerusalem years ago, a Christian woman from Switzerland got in prayer that Jesus would return in 2022.
Religious and secular people alike are getting the end is soon. When people say they are doomsday prepping, preparing for apocalypse, secular and worldy people don’t laugh but actually encourage getting ready.
Is Jesus coming again in 2022? Interestingly, Revelation 22 is the last chapter in the last book of the Bible. It features passages about Jesus coming soon:
“The Spirit and the Bride say, "Come." And let the one who hears say, "Come." And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who desires take the water of life without price.” (Revelation 22:17)
“He who testifies to these things says, "Surely I am coming soon." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!” (Revelation 22:20).
We see a world that is growing lawlessness (Matthew 24:13), and considering nothing sacred (2 Timothy 3:2).
Some believe the Sign if the Son of Man that precedes Christ, “Then will appear in heaven the sign of the Son of Man, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. - Matthew 24:30), has already been seen in Hubble Cross or Celestial Cross:
Could Christ be returning in 2022?
The rebuttal is, "But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father” (Matthew 24:36). Howvever in Greek, day means a day not day or year (2 Peter 3:7), so there is no mentioning you can’t know the year. Also since Christ lives in us (Colossians 1:27) and we live in God the Trinity (1 John 4:15) it stands to reason the Father could tell people the year, for Jesus said, “In that day you will no longer ask me anything. Very truly I tell you, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name” (John 16:23).
We will know for sure in 2022 is they are right or if Christ intends to delay His return (2 Peter 3:1-16). What is important is we keep our eyes fix on Jesus (Hebrews 12:2) and be ready at any second for His return. Amen.
