War and Bible Prophecy

 Bible prophecy indicates that war and violent conflict would be part of the sign of "the conclusion of things." (Matthew 24:3) Jesus Christ foretold:

."You are going to hear of wars and reports of wars. . . .For nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom." - MATTHEW 24:6, 7. 

."When hear of wars and disturbances, do not be terrified." - LUKE 21:9.

The original-language word translated "disturbances" can refer to disorders, uprisings, opposition to established authority, insurrections, political turmoil, and riots.
