Why am I so confident that Jesus is coming soon? To understand this more clearly, you have to understand God's prophetic timepiece: The nation of Israel. 

When a massive hurricane rolls across the ocean toward land, bands of the storm often go well ahead of the storm itself. When one of them hits land, surf and winds rise. Rain increases. But between the bands, skies can be clear. Meanwhile, further out, the heart of the storm keeps churning, growing, and moving ominously closer to land. That’s something like the way Jesus described events as the end of the age approaches. He said it would be like a woman in labor.
