End Time Prophecies
Wanda:
In addition to the verse Dennis posted, these apply to all.
Romans 1
21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened.
24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
As difficult as it is to accept these crimes against children, God has given us an understanding as to the why of it.

The Vatican also created Islam. Do a search for it on any search engine. Evil organization.

I have just now realized that I’ve actually strayed away from what I originally intended to write. The premise of this is a number of questions. When did the end times begin? It seems that we have been in them since the first day of Pentecost. Every generation has thought itself to be the last. And the reasons have been understandable from the perspective of the people of those times. Wars, disease, persecutions, and even serious climate changes of the past have occurred again and again. I’m not going to list anything because I believe we are all aware of at least the worst of these events. So, here we are… closer than ever to the culmination. But just how close are we? What is our perspective compared to tomorrow’s? Who knows just how much is yet to occur before the true culmination of events?

Mat 24:42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

Indeed. But the mindset Mike is talking about in that post makes people really want that verse to say: Watch, therefor, so ye may know what hour your Lord doth come.

Hi Dave,
Good reminder.
Also noted that Watch doesn't mean Worry about it too much.
Just be aware of the need to be thankful for the gift of understanding and appreciative and then relax ... but keep your eyes open... :D No sleeping on the job.

One thing I'm sure of is, we are closer Today then we were yesterday. I don't think anyone knows how much longer the world will continue on as is. Looking at the state of the physical world is futile as "there is nothing new under the sun".
However, I do think it's important to be ready by "watching" and praying, so when Christ appears, we won't be surprised and locked out.
