The recent total solar eclipse, referred to as the Great American Eclipse, has led many to speculate on end times events. Now, as two major hurricanes followed closely on the heels of the eclipse, some believe these cosmic events have spiritual significance.
A total solar eclipse will take place in the U.S. on August 21, 2017. People around the country are planning eclipse-viewing parties and eagerly awaiting this event which last happened 38 years ago.
Even now, believers pour over scripture looking for clues to Christ’s reappearance. Jesus himself told the disciples he’d return soon, so where is he?
When Jesus left this earth, He promised that He would return one day and take us to live with Him in His heavenly Kingdom. We are living now in the Church Age, and regardless of what you believe about specific eschatology of the end times, all Christians can agree that Christ is coming back and we are called to be ready and walking the straight and narrow path so that He may tell us "well done, good and faithful, servant" on that glorious day when we meet Him face to face.
Here are eight things you can do as you seek to cultivate a life centered on Christ, eagerly awaiting His return.

A total solar eclipse will be visible in the U.S. on August 21, 2017. Some are speculating that this may be a sign of the end times and Christ’s return.
Anne Graham Lotz, the daughter of Billy Graham, has admonished Christians to be prepared for the rapture which could happen at any time.
A fundamentalist Christian website called Signs of the End Times claims that the world will end in 2017.
Certain signs in the heavens and current world events have caused some Christians to believe that the end times are near.
Some end times prophets are claiming that tonight’s “black moon” signals the end of the world.
Do these events herald the end of the world? Jesus told us that "the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light" before he returns.
