One of the signs that Christ is coming back so soon is that pestilence and diseases shall increase. If you notice in the last few decades, many fatal epidemic diseases have killed millions of people as viruses mutate into stronger varieties that are more resistant to treatment. And if you will recall, only late last year, we had an AH1N1 pandemic. AHIN1 is a variety of a simple flu, but stronger and very fatal. Many diseases were discovered only in the 20th century like AIDS, Hepatitis, Ebola, Mad’s Cow, and Cancer. Now, the varieties of cancer are also increasing. Some of the most common cancers I know include Cancer of the Bone or Leukemia, Breast Cancer, Brain Cancer and Lung Cancer. Lung cancer can be further classified based on its cause. One form of lung cancer is called Asbestos cancer which is caused by extreme exposure to asbestos for a long period of time*. Asbestos cancer is also called as Mesothelioma.
Well, why I’m telling you this? First, is to remind you that Jesus Christ is coming so soon. The question is, are you ready to face Him? Secondly, for you to be aware that the increase in diseases was prophesied in the Bible thousand and years ago. So we shouldn’t be surprised if tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, a new disease will be discovered. It was already written in the Word of God and it will surely happen. The key is preparation.

Amen Sis! I do agree with you. The day will come that all believers will have incorruptible bodies!!
Hi Coffee Bump,
Thank you for your comment. It is true that Jesus paid for our sins on the cross. He has also all the power to heal us. And we can always rely on Him for our complete healing because He is the great physician. But as Christians, we are not exempted to experience and suffer from these diseases while we are here on Earth because our body is still corruptible. But when Jesus returns and takes the believers to heaven, our corruptible body will be changed to incorruptible, that is the time that we will no longer feel pain and will no longer experience diseases. Because our body can no longer be destroyed.
I have to disagree with you somewhat because the Bible is crystal clear that believers will be healed. So although the Earth may be full of diseases, believers should be happy to know that they can be healed from them simply because Jesus paid for sickness and sin.
