He didn't suggest that it was going to happen next week, next month, or even the next decade. But yes, this world is going to end.
I find people get scared hearing the world will end because they think that to mean our home Earth will end.
God gifted Earth to us humans according to Psalm 115:16, and God is No 'Indian Giver ', so to speak.
Many people are Not aware that Ecclesiastes 1:4 B says the Earth abides forever.
So, what will be gone are the wicked on Earth - Proverbs 2:21-22; Psalm 92:7; Isaiah 11:3-4; Rev. 19:14-16
Jesus, as Prince of Peace, will then usher in the good conditions on Earth as described at the 35th chapter of Isaiah.
That is why we are all now invited to pray the invitation of Revelation 22:20 for Jesus to come !
Do you live in the U.S.? August 21, 2017 - total solar eclipse. A few days later, Houston TX is decimated by hurricane Harvey. A week later hurricane Irma hammers many islands and Florida. Many states in the US are being set ablaze with wildlifes as we speak. Last week, an 8.1 earthquake rocks Mexico. This list doesn't even address the multitude of other calamities that have already come and gone recently.
You can be a doubter all you want, but it's all right there to see.
Yah. Was the eclipse total? I thought it was only total in a narrow strip @ the heart of the eclipse’s path on the Earth, about 71 miles wide in the US. Houston wasn’t decimated – that used to mean 10% of the population would have died. As far as I know, there was lots of property damage (possibly $180 billion, says the Texas governor), but relatively few lives lost – 63 in southeast Texas. & as far as that goes, Houston, Galveston, Corpus Christi, lots of the Gulf coast cities suffer hurricanes & flooding on a regular basis. Texas could take steps to avoid or minimize all the damage, but it’s Texas – they don’t seem to think that government has any role to play in the face of natural disasters.
Never mind that you could practically set your watch by this particular mess – even San Antonio floods regularly – it has to do with the inadequate drainage & the flat terrain, plus a lot of overbuilding in flood plains. But there’s money to be made, & federal flood insurance makes people whole – if they signed up for it. (Apparently, many in Texas didn’t. There’ll probably be some pressure on Congress to make everybody whole in any event – that’s what’s convenient about blaming Acts of God.)
The wildfires in the US aren’t in many states. Many states in the far west, perhaps, California, Arizona. & the wildfires are mostly in the national park system, with some persistent, regular exceptions (not entire states, as the quote above implies - states in the US west are big. There is a crisis in the national parks in the US west – the trees & bushes & groundcover are suffering the lack of rain & snowpack, the higher temperatures & trending higher each passing year, the infestations of insects & blights that take advantage of the warmer weather & plant distress to attack the flora. All of this makes for more deadfalls & combustible debris in the forests, which make them more vulnerable to fires, whether human or natural set. The trend for wildfires in the US west is up – but that’s due to climate trends, as far as I can tell – gradually rising temperatures & less rain/snowpack over time.
"Hurricane Irma evacuees are returning to scenes of devastation in the Florida Keys with reports of a quarter of homes destroyed on the low-lying islands."
" For certain we’re being taught a lesson in humility…and that is Biblical, whether you take it as purely happenstance or not. Consider the Flood. See parts of Texas, Louisiana, Florida, the Caribbean to get a dove’s eye view of what it must have been like during Noah’s day. Our most prized structures turned to wilderness.
The most powerful nation on earth, and we tremble at the word…the word LANDFALL. God is coming."

Pharaoh had to learn the hard way like so many today, but they stand no chance against the God of the Bible.
" A plague of locusts attacked South Eastern Trinidad last week. “People are scared and are panicking because of the amount of locusts. I won’t say this is the first time we have seen locusts, but it is the first time seeing it in such a magnitude,” Chairman of the Mayaro/Rio Claro Regional Corporation Glenn Ram was quoted in the Trinidad Express as saying."
HURRICANE Harvey is a sign of the end of the world, according to a Christian author and preacher who says that there will be a ”birth of the new world”.

Yah. The parts of Texas, Louisiana, Florida that flooded are low-lying & nearly flat. That describes the coastal plain of Texas; New Orleans in Louisiana is actually below sea level; Florida, except the panhandle, is barely above sea level. All three – certainly the parts @ or below sea level – flood all the time, especially in hurricane season – which we’re in.
Our most prized structures – meaning all those condos & hi-rise hotels on the hurricane coast that look like they’re sculpted to catch the wind & blow out their windows & then collapse? Those are not prized structures – they’re cash cows, perhaps, meant to drain the pocketbooks of anyone without an appreciation for high winds & objects propelled to killing speeds by the wind, & carried to the heights of the buildings – but no, these are not cultural icons to my mind.
I don’t know the Caribbean islands that well – Puerto Rico tends to build in concrete, to avoid the problems that Haiti has when high winds & torrential rainfalls wash away every shack & poorly constructed building of whatever material.
Now, putting oil pipelines & refineries & drilling platforms out in the open (like Houston, New Orleans, platforms out in the Gulf) – that seems to be inviting disaster, when so much of the US petro industry refining capacity is concentrated there or nearby. & lots of oil pipelines & shipping & refining in so little physical space, congested shipping lanes, & lots of the oil & related chemicals are flammable &/or explosive – is a recipe for disaster. Fires, explosions, toxic fumes, environmental degradation & long-term persistent toxins released into the Gulf – the source of shrimp, fish, clams – it’s a disaster all around.
As for most powerful nation - well, we are, militarily. We still lead in education, design, pharmaceuticals, medicine, segments of high tech. But that won't stop hurricanes, or @ least, not yet. We may never find a way to stop hurricanes - but we can @ least study their formation, & perhaps perfect long-term forecasting, to avoid the worst outcomes. Time will tell.
11 And I will establish my covenant with you, neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.
