Let me ask you, what do you think about Briton leaving the EU ? what may be next ?Now I will be the first to tell you I know nothing really about politics but I figure this Brexit is going to cause a domino effect.

Okay, let me ask in turn what do you think about Sweden-Norway personal union breakup in 1905? I think about the same of Britain leaving EU as I think about it. Unions, kingdoms and alliances have been formed and abandoned throughout the history. Nothing new under the sun.

oh my goodness, what I think obviously doesnt matter now does it. I am not here to argue as people seem to thrive on in these forums. As I also said if you want to opt to think the end is not coming in your life time well thats fine, what you do is your business as for me, I chose to never take prophecy lightly. Now if the end does not come in my lifetime well then I will not have to watch the prophecies unfold on earth any more will I.
1Th 5:16 Rejoice evermore.
1Th 5:17 Pray without ceasing.
1Th 5:18 In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
1Th 5:19 Do not quench the Spirit.
1Th 5:20 Do not despise prophesying.
1Th 5:21 Prove all things, hold fast to the good.
1Th 5:22 Abstain from every appearance of evil.
1Th 5:23 And may the God of peace Himself sanctify you, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blamelessly at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ

The thing is prophecy is being fulfilled before our eyes so swiftly now...

Every generation of Christian Eschatologists have said that going on 2,000 years now.

I was raised in a premillennial dispensationalism world view/belief system. It was awful. I consider it to have been a form of spiritual abuse. It was all fear and anxiety and doom and gloom interspersed with Evangelical apocalyptic persecution literature (and even movies). In order to move forward in my life I had to leave it behind (pun very much intended).

My faith is one of hope and personal growth in Christ. It isn't about fear.

You all keep asking for a deadline. I believe Obama is the beast of revelation. I would have to guess it will happen in his term of office. See why I believe this, by looking at all the videos I have been collecting at http://www.everybodymattersministry.com/end.php

As well as Sarkozy, Putin, and every pope ever? Dollars to doughnuts you've been on that bandwagon with the aforementioned in the past.

Never ... I have never though (in the past) that it was true. Only now do I believe it is true. I always thought we were not in the end times, and felt such prechers were nuts.

You may not believe in prophecy but God spoke through me twice recently that he is coming back, and we as people need to be ready. Years ago he sent me dreams of his return, now those dreams are lining up with that of others. Many of them.

I believe that you believe this, however, I don't believe that your dreams are prophetic in any way.

207 days from now when the President steps down and become a private citizen again will you come back here and admit you were wrong?

I used to focus on that stuff all the time. One thing I found out is that prophecy is only truly understood AFTER it happens and normally looks completely different than what they thought.
Prophecy is not meant to tell us what is going to happen per se but to prove after the fact that He actually spoke it first.

Good, now I can disregard you once Obama has left office!

I do so love it when I see a deadline.

EDIT: I will mention I have made one prophecy back when I was Christian. The Church I attended was infected by false prophets. They spoke much but never gave a time frame. Then one finally did. He said something would come to pass before the end of the year. I prophesied that I would be calling people on it on the next New Years day.

Final result is that many left that Church because the leadership refused to face the failure of the prophets they had embraced.

if you dont believe thats ok, but why not just go on to another thread that is interesting to you and participate in something interesting to you ??
Perhaps you're saying this because he's an atheist. However, I, as a Christian, don't believe in what this thread is promoting either. Anyone that posts on a message board is opening himself/herself up to disagreement- and everyone that has posted in this thread so far has the right to post here. The poster you quoted wasn't engaging in insults nor was he insulting Christianity.

Why on earth would I say that to him because he is atheist ? And did I say anything about I thought he was insulting Christianity. Why do people always jump to the negative and stick their claws out ready to pounce on anything they THINK someone else is implying This forum isnt for Christians only. I was simply asking a legit question. Geez chill out.

Well, I find it very interesting in not so much what people believe or don't believe, but how they go about justifying their beliefs.

So, posts like the OP, are interesting to me.
