How do we know Christ's return is imminent?

Throughout his teachings, the Apostle Paul warns that one of the primary signs indicating the nearness of Christ's return is the proliferation of false teachings and 'false Christianity.' This indicates that in the last days, many will turn away from sound doctrine, which has been evident since the early church and continues today. Believers are called to be discerning, recognizing that while trials and tribulations are part of the Christian life, they must also be prepared for the eventual return of Christ. We may not know the exact time of His coming, but we are to live in readiness, aware of the signs around us and faithful in our service to Him.
