The doomsayers are at it again!!! This time around, self proclaimed mystic and Bible Scholar David Meade is predicting “Beyond any shadow of a doubt” that the rapture, followed by nuclear war will occur Early April of this year!! When will these knuckleheads realize that it is highly improbable that any person will ever accurately predict the end of days?!?!?
Please feel free to rant and vent any frustrations that you may have about this issue
Well, not only does it discredit Christianity because they are invariably wrong, but it is also highly egocentric. Not only do they ignore passages such as that in Thessalonians that state flatly that no one will know before it happens, but it also betrays a common trait among those who embrace eschatology: Namely that these times are unique, therefore THEY are unique.
I've heard that all my life. If only I had a dollar for every time I've heard that!
So, you don't believe Jesus?
Matthew 24
[33] So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
[34] Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
[35] Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
Jesus' second coming is at the door. All the end-time signs that Jesus spoke of are now converging. No other generation can make that claim.
In addition, there were many prophesies that could not be seen
until after they came to pass. Kinda like a billboard that you see
in your rear view mirror.
Matthew 24
[33] So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
[34] Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
[35] Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
Not the end of the world, but the end of this age as we know it. Jesus' second coming will be the removing of the Saints from earth (the Rapture), and that will leave the earth void of any righteousness. God will then unleash His full fury upon sinful mankind by means of horrifying judgements; so much so that Jesus said that people will be having heart attacks in fear. At the end of this terrifying tribulation period, a vengeful Jesus (His Lion personality) along with the armies of Heaven will appear in the sky for all to see; He's coming for war against the ungodly. Once He has devoured His enemies, He will usher in the Kingdom of God on earth.
Revelation 1
[7] Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
[8] I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
No, I don't believe in man's predictions. If you follow man, you'll get off-course and go astray nearly every time.
Check yourself, and see where your faith lies and who you're truly following.
