How many years til the end?

[imafungi1]

I think the reason that we can find similarities between the prophecies of old and the activities of today is b/c I think that Satan is preparing for the Armageddon, Final War, Big Battle (whatever you want to call it) b/c he doesn't know when it's going to happen, so he prepares accordingly. When Jesus doesn't come down with a shout, Satan throws a fit, curses, calms down, waits a couple of years, and starts making wars and crap like that to prepare for when it does happen. That's just my $.02.

Isn't this borderline date setting?

The Bride doesn't spend all her waiting time, wondering by what method the Groom will come to her. She thinks about Him, Whom she loves, anticipating with excitement the Day of His arrival, not because there's a war in the Middle East that "surely" indicates His coming is near, but because HE will be arriving.

I cant vote on this one cos it really would be a wild one. No-one knows and we cant really work it out. If we could it wouldn't reall be like a thief in the night , would it?

The great falling away has already occurred!


"I don't think I can really say how many years with any degree of certainty until two things occur: the falling away and the Abomination of Desolation. Then we can say with much certainty, and even count the days. "


"Let no one deceive or beguile you in any way, for that day will not come except the apostasy comes first [unless the predicted great falling away of those who have professed to be Christians has come], and the man of lawlessness (sin) is revealed, who is the son of doom (of perdition)."
II Thess. 2:3

So, we are waiting for the antichrist to be revealed. Now according to some that visited Israel in 1992 a rabbi told them that the messiah had already returned and they just weren't ready to reveal him.

Since then, they have started building harps, raiment for service in the temple, etc. It is verryyy close.

Well, I haven't seen the moon turn blood red but I know that they are signs of the times. However, I am not afaird of the second coming of chrsit.

I read somewhere that the moon had already turned blood red once, in one of these many forums I visit. Doesn't matter.

The day the Lord arrives is unknown to any but the Father, so it would be heretical to try to guess. That's the stumbling block of many of today's cults. Thinking they can guess despite the bible.
