God does not give us a month or year. I know and other believers know just by reading the Bible and knowing what the signs are. We may not know the year month or day or our but we will know the season.
Let me put it this way. The anti christ is going to mark every person on earth and forbid anyone that doesn't take this mark from working buying or selling.
Doesn't this sound a lot like the barcode, veri chip etc.[
Would that not be an easy sell in this day and age?
Not really, no. It might work for a country or two, but the ENTIRE population? Even places that are effectively sealed off from the world, like North Korea? No.
No money to steal, all your data right in your hand or forehead. How could you deal drugs, steal or rob anyone, extortion would be gone, crime could be controled as you could track people....
If you wanted to commit crime, what would stop you from just taking the stupid thing our to rewiring it?
Another thing is the frequency of tornadoes, earthquakes, hurricanes, flooding droughts and other natural disasters.
There's really no data that these thing occur more than they used to. What's changed is our ability to track them and record them. Two hundred years ago, if an earthquake happened in China, nobody in the US would hear about it. These days, it's impossible NOT to hear about such things.
The talk of the Illuminati,
Nothing new.
one world government merging of religions,
Very unlikely.
the selfishness of mankind,
Nothing new.
strange appearances in the sky,
Nothing new.
more interest in the paranormal and witchcraft, vampires and other spiritualism,
Not even sure if that's true, but if so, so what?
Yes, we learn more as time goes on. So what?
violence and sexual immorality, wars and increased search for peace, Christians turning away from the truth, Christians being openly killed, famine,
None of this is new.
I know this has always been however it is epidemic now.
Not really. Things aren't great now, but they've been substantially worse before.
No time in history has all this came together with the technological ability to do the things that are predicted.
People have been saying the same thing for millenia. I don't see anymore reason to take you more seriously than any of them.
