“Signs of death is clear on planet earth with covid-19 and all the other diseases which Jesus Christ did mention it and is recorded in the bible as signs of His second coming.
“Also read in the Bible the book of Mathew 24 verse 8: All this are the beginning of sorrow. Which include contagious diseases as a sign of the return of the Christ.
“Thus, I ask you all to embrace the hope of life Easter points to us.
