Someone mentioned that they were scared of the "mark of the beast" and I posted this --
good point. Rev 13 presents this as very very scary.
It says the whole world is deceived by it
Matthew 24 says it is soooo powerful even the very elect are at risk - "if possible to deceive the very elect".
2 Thess 2 says that it comes with all the power and signs and wonders of satan himself.
The warnings in the Bible about end times events - are off the charts.
Christ said that the real END-Times scenario is EXACTLY like the days of Noah and not knowing enough to "get in the boat" -- where most people do not take that action Noah's message pointed to... they just keep doing things as they used to do them.
Today's scenarios argue that they are NOTHING like the one give to Noah - because not doing anything different will serve you "just fine" as long as you are the person in the OP scenario who accepts Christ. (Whether or not you guessed the right ending sequence)
By contrast in the Bible we have this --
2 Peter 3
3 Know this first of all, that in the last days
mockers will come with their mocking, following after their own lusts, 4 and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For
ever since the fathers fell asleep, all continues just as it was from the beginning of creation.” 5 For when they maintain this, it escapes their notice that by the word of God
the heavens existed long ago and
the earth was formed out of water and by water, 6 through which the world at that time was destroyed, being flooded with water. 7 But by His word the present heavens and earth are being reserved for fire, kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.
1 Thess 5
Now as to the times and the epochs, brethren, you have no need of anything to be written to you. 2 For you yourselves know full well that the day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night. 3
While they are saying, “Peace and safety!” then destruction will come upon them suddenly like labor pains upon a woman with child, and they will not escape. 4
But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day would overtake you like a thief;
Matt 24
22 Unless those days had been cut short, no life would have been saved;
but for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.
..
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
..
37 For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah. 38 For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39
and they did not understand until the flood came and took them all away; so will the coming of the Son of Man be
2 Thess 2
; 9
that is, the one whose coming is in accord with the activity of Satan, with all power and signs and false wonders, 10 and with all the deception of wickedness for those who perish, because they d
id not receive the love of the truth so as to be saved. 11 For this reason God will send upon them a deluding influence so that they will believe what is false, 12 in order that they all may be judged who
did not believe the truth
