Whee!!! I bet that subject line roused some of you... check this out... fun with Sir Isaac Newton: http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/news/article-23401099-details/The+world+will+end+in+2060%2C+according+to+Newton/article.do
Is it going to end, or be changed like we are.Now man knows when the world will end.

Now we know? So you believe Newton's theory is correct?
So, noooo…, I’m not encouraged by Newton’s 2060, he wasn’t seeing 20/20. Anyway I think that it’ll be much, much sooner than that… and not how Newton wrote his version. I suppose the world will remember Newton’s words after millions of Trinitarians vanish off the face of the earth in the twinkling of an eye(i.e. pre-trib rapture), then they’ll say “hey, the false church Newton wrote about was removed by God for their punishment, time to party!”.At this point, Newton believed, Christ “shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever & of his kingdom there shall be no end”. Thus for Newton the 1260 years represent the time in which the true, uncorrupt church would be oppressed by the false, corrupt Trinitarian church of the Great harlot. This is the period of deepest apostasy, a time when only a tiny remnant upheld pre-Trinitarian theology. Newton believed he was part of this remnant.
Sssh, don't say that to loudly round here ,you will be put into the same group as newton.I hope not. I caught this a few days before it got out on major media sources. From what I have read of it, Newtons prophecy is for the destruction of the false Church, the Trinitarians (those that believe in a Triune God), and that the TRUE church will prevail (those that deny the Godhood of Jesus and the Holy Ghost)
False teachers coming out of the woodwork, even after being dead for 100s of years. Yup, the time MUST be short, now.

End? Or beginning? I personally believe that Christ's Sacrifice is the ultimate act of love through which every atom of the cosmos - all creation is transformed and reNEWED.Is it going to end, or be changed like we are.
A new me, a new Heaven, a new earth.

I answered this post because our thoughts are similar, such as 2018 as a possible window for when this present age ends. The "day or hour" is from Mt. 24:36 and refers to the Second Coming at the end of the Tribulation, would this also apply to the Rapture?brimac
I know that no man know the day or the hour but we can know the era! And, it is obvious by all of the current world events that the time is near. I'm actually gonna have to disagree with Isaac Newton. I think that it's gonna be a whole lot sooner. I'm actually part of the school of thought which believes that prophecy points to a date no later than 2018!
What is the meaning of "all the trees" Luke 21:29, if the fig tree is symbolic of Israel, would the other trees have to be nations?If you look at Matthew 24:34, Jesus is talking about the fig tree (Israel) and how when "the branches come out and the leaves become tender, you know that summer is near----------Generally, eschatologists have looked at May 14, 1948 as the event spoken of in Matthew 24:34.
Got any scripture for this, I believe it will happen when Christ returns.The fig tree always represents Israel in scripture and prophecy stated that Israel would become a nation in one day. That prophecy was fullfilled on May 14, 1948. If this is correct,
Never heard of this, a Greek generation? Is there a Hebrew generation?a greek generation is made up of 70 years, placing the end before 2018,
Where do you get this seven year tribulation, I see no scriptural evidence for it?of course with a seven year tribulation taking place, the beginning of the tribulation would be before 2011!
Variation on the date-setter's standby. "We can't know the day or the hour, but we can know the minute/month/week/year/nanosecond/whatev." Unfortunately, date-setting is still bogus. Pretty much every date-setter picks a date within his or her own presumptive lifetime, and then generally lives to see it fail.I know that no man know the day or the hour but we can know the era!
Yeah, just imagine an epidemic wiping out half or Europe! Nothing that horrific has ever... opps, that was centuries ago, and the Lord didn't come back then. Hmmmm... maybe newspaper eschatology isn't all it's cracked up to be.And, it is obvious by all of the current world events that the time is near.
OK, I'll put that on the list. There's room, since 1988, '89, 2000, '02, and '04 have been scratched off.I'm actually part of the school of thought which believes that prophecy points to a date no later than 2018!
Of course not! That would have meant that dispensationalism was sunk without a trace!Was he telling the apostles that their generation would not pass away before all thoses things occured? No, he couldnt have been saying that!
Lindseyite "eschatologists", anyway.Generally, eschatologists have looked at May 14, 1948 as the event spoken of in Matthew 24:34.
Greek? What did the Greeks have to do with anything our Lord would have foretold? There weren't any Greeks on the premises when He said that.a greek generation is made up of 70 years
The Scripture which stated that Israel would become a nation in one day is Isaiah 66:7-8. A Hebrew generation is 40 years. And the 7 year tribulation comes from Daniel 9, where Daniel finishes of the passage about the 70 weeks with an allusion to the prince to come who would set up a treaty with the many for 7 years but would only honor it for 3 1/2 years. The book of Revelation also speaks of two 1260 day periods of time, the two halfs of the seven years spoken of in Daniel 9.I answered this post because our thoughts are similar, such as 2018 as a possible window for when this present age ends.

Where do you get this seven year tribulation, I see no scriptural evidence for it?
You know, you can still be watchful and informed without being a date-setter, and notice that I did not say that "the end WILL come before 2018", I just said that it makes sense to me, therefore on Jan 1, 2019, my world will not fall apart if I wake up to the samo samo. Secondly, there is more to end times prophecy thanm just catastophies, just because a plague kills thousands of people does not mean that Jesus will return tomorrow.Variation on the date-setter's standby.

I would say that is a bit on the conservative side.I think we've got under 5 billion years left on this planet.
One man's guess is just as good as another.Now man knows when the world will end.
