Mark 13

In the last week of His life, the Savior taught His disciples -

"Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near:
29 So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, even at the doors." (New Testament | Mark 13:28 - 29)

Considering that parable, some of the signs that the branch is putting forth leaves is -

"...when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet.
8 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles..." (New Testament | Mark 13:7 - 8)

As of today, consider the wars or rumours of wars and protests in the middle east. Consider the recent earthquakes in Haiti, Chile, New Zealand, and now this past week in Japan. Even as prophesied in latter days -

"...the testimony of the voice of thunderings, and the voice of lightnings, and the voice of tempests, and the voice of the waves of the sea heaving themselves beyond their bounds." (Doctrine and Covenants | Section 88:90)

The Lord taught of the last days -

"...these are the beginnings of sorrows." (New Testament | Mark 13:8)

Therefore, we are warned -

"Take ye heed, watch and pray..." (New Testament | Mark 13:33)
