I can't live in fear of the Endtimes. I'm not going to worry about tomorrow. I can only do the best I can today, for God may take me tomorrow with or without the Endtimes. I almost think these ideas are geared to make people fanatical.
I wanted to say, as well, that from all my reading this theory about the Endtimes seems to make sense:
The world will be hit by economic collapse, natural disasters (such as England being buried under water) to the extent that approx 1/3 of the population will be destroyed.
Cries will be heard from everywhere once these things start to recede, and rebuilding will begin. People loved Hitler in the beginning because he did so many good things for their country in the same way the AntiChrist will be loved. Over time, out of the poor desperation of the people, an organized system of religion and economics will be developed. People will accept it because it appears to make sense.
Then the Anti-Christ will be known for who he really is but by then he will have too much power and his army will remain on his side. Perhaps he would be killing Christians in secret the same way the Jew were killed. Then, Armageddon, the AntiChrist is destroyed. Life resumes normalcy, people buy and sell.
And then, when nobody's looking, Christ comes again and all prophecies will be fufilled.
The End
Of course, it's open to debate, but it makes sense to me. Can you believe that I lived in so much fear of the End earlier in my life that I didn't want to have children? I'm glad God gave them to me anyways.
Luv,
Theresa
