"For just as the lightning comes from the east and flashes even to the west, so will the coming of the Son of Man be. Matthew 24:27

One day the disciples came to Jesus and were given a private briefing regarding what signs to watch for before His promised return...

As He was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will these things happen, and what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?"

And Jesus answered them and said to them, "See to it that no one misleads you. "For many will come in my Name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and will mislead many. "You will be hearing of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not frightened, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end. "For nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and in various places there will be famines and earthquakes, "But all these things are merely the beginning of birth pangs. Matthew 24:3-8

And in the Gospel of Luke Jesus says, "There will be signs in the sun and moon and stars, and on the earth dismay among nations, in perplexity at the roaring of the sea and the waves, men fainting from fear and the expectation of the things which are coming upon the world; for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Luke 21:25-26

Then Jesus told them a parable: "Behold the fig tree and all the trees; as soon as they put forth leaves, you see it and know for yourselves that summer is now near. "So you also, when you see these things happening, recognize that the kingdom of God is near. "Truly I say to you, that this generation will not pass away until all these things take place.
