Then you aren't paying attention to anything but the shouting. Did you listen to a whole sermon to see the evidence? It's your decision, naturally, but your description isn't accurate, just opinion.

Edited to add: In regards to hellfire and brimstone preaching, not that it applies to these sermons, but the world could do with some hellfire and brimstone preaching these days. Most sermons dished out are so watered down and inconsequential that people have become complacent and lazy.

We need more Edward's, Finney's and Ravenhill's in this generation to scare the 'hell' out of people.. True revival will come only when we as individuals seek God's face and turn from our wickedness.

Simple.. i don't have time to listen to all the sermons. Sorry.. I just don't. Trust me when I say this.. From the time I could comprehend "end times".. until now.. I've heard this over and over and over and over again. Its always the end times. Always. Why? Because people want to believe it and people make money off it.

Then you're keeping yourself cynical and your head buried in the sand. Until you can make the time to watch even one of the videos to see how incredibly close we are to Christ's return, you're comments are based off of the same old, stale arguments people have used for decades to keep themselves comfortable.

People always find the time to do what they want to do. Always. If it's important to them, they'll make the time. If the Jesus, our faith, and Bible are important to us, we'll make the time to spend in those things. Everything else will get scheduled around it instead of the other way around. If you can make the time to listen to one, try the one world government, or the one world economy. Why not see that every preparation for the Jews to rebuild the temple is complete - all the vestments, all the ornaments, everything. Heard of the Amero? It's the North American currency already printed for when the borders between the US, Canada and Mexico dissolve and we become the North American Union. Ever hear that in Revelation the world is divided up into ten kingdoms? Did you know that it already is and all of these "unions" are forming now?

I understand that you're busy. Who isn't? But, are you allowing the busy-ness to distract you from what's truly important? Check out the YouTube video called Satan's Meeting for a better understanding of how the word "busy" can be an acronym for "Being Under Satan's Yoke."

These are wake up calls.... don't sleep through them.

That's a shame that people feel that way. But I think those types of attitudes are exactly why it's going to be so easy for all of these terrible things to happen. "I don't have time, this doesn't impact me."

I'd recommend you (and other busy people) watch the one world government segments. The ending would be hilarious if I didn't understand how true it was.

Have a blessed day.

My comments are based off of the same old, stale prophecies of people used for decades to scare the crap out of people..

Right.. and whats important to me is to not watch some preacher yell at me about things he isn't 100% sure about. In the end.. its his opinion..

Are you implying I don't spend time on those things? Or are you implying I don't spend time on the things you think are important?

I'd like to see your source on that. I simply don't believe that to be true. Its a conspiracy theory.. plain and simple.

Lets go one by one.. Lets figure out the "Amero" argument first and see if that is true.. then we'll move on.

Is it.. Is it a shame? FYI.. its not a shame. A shame is a child going hungry. Me not watching a video on youtube.. its far from a shame.

"I don't have time, this doesn't interest me because its some preacher who yells really loud and tries to scare the crap out of folks and then he gets his video on youtube (something a 5 year old can do) and supposedly this preacher has it all figured out. He is the special one. "

That better for ya?

I'm guessing your idea of hilarious and my idea of hilarious are slightly different.

Sorry bigthirsty, while I do find message boards to be insightful in the most ironic ways; I don't visit them to argue- hence the screen name.

Be blessed.

I am THRILLED to share the source with you, brother. I try to only share information with sources. Big Thirsty, just so you understand, I'm NOT trying to get down on you. Not at all. If I didn't care, I would have posted the videos and left everyone to their own devices and opinions. I'm discussing this with you because I really do care. I don't want anyone caught unaware or by surprise. Nobody, regardless of their beliefs.

Do you realize that the words you used are actually one of the signs of the times?

2 Peter 3:3-4 "knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.”

This is what I'm trying to warn people of.

Here is your proof of the Amero: It's a news clip from CNBC and the guy whose talking about it even uses the phrase that people who don't know about it are "keeping their heads in the sand."

The Amero - North American Currency (2 min 15 sec)

Here is where you can see the coins:

The Amero is here (11 seconds)

You'll find TONS of information about it if you Google it or search YouTube for "Amero."
