[MOVED] End of the world predictions are a dime a dozen and always wrong. :)

End of the world predictions are a dime a dozen and always wrong.

" I predict pain!" -- Clubber Lang

 

[Douggg]

It isn't like we weren't warned.

Matthew 24:36

The end of this present earth is in the bible. It is after the millennial reign of Jesus. Revelation 20:11.

Peter also referenced that this world and everything in it will be destroyed by fire, a fervent heat.

 

[JonFromMinnesota]

The OP is a lie because since 1992 all of my annual predictions have come true

Did you predict exact dates and times of these events?

For example, I predicted that 2015 would be a very hot year, and so far it is the hottest year on record by far.

I predict that it will start getting cold in my state around October and November and last till around April. So what? Natural shifts in weather patterns have been happening for a millennia. Why would man's influence on climate change bring on the end of the world? There are measures we can take to prevent this.

I also predicted 9/11, the start of the Battle of Ar Mageddon

Did you predict the exact time and date of this event? Or did you make a vague prophecy like "I predict America will be attacked at some point that will be the sign of end times" And then use your confirmation bias when it happened? Every major conflict the world has ever seen could be said to be "end times" and you just pick the ones that happen in your life time. It's nonsense.

In other words, we are now experiencing the 7 last plagues, which are said to be poured out after the Great Tribulation of WW II. (Global warming is plague # 4, and the Battle of Ar Mageddon is plague # 7).

Who called World War 2 the "Great tribulation"? What was World War 1, The War of 1812, The Revolutionary War, etc? Is your "end of the world" view only exclusive with wars that America is involved in? What is plague 1,2,3,5 and 6 since you're so "accurate" at making vague predictions?

Let me make one more prediction. The latest face of the 7th head of Satan will, in the near future, be so soundly defeated by US-led forces that Satan wont be heard from again for a thousand years. (The US, founded by George Washington who rode a pale horse, is the 4th horseman to rule the earth for Jesus and kill His enemies).

Such a vague prediction. If you are some expert psychic on the future of the world, please include what the exact event will be. Also include the exact date and time of this event. There are other founding fathers besides George Washington. Describing a type of horse he owned and associate it with "4 horseman" is complete nonsense. There are plenty of people with white horses. Should we be terrified of them!? It's amazing to see the mental gymnastics people will do to confirm their bias.

 

[ron4shua]

We , homo sapiens are basically all egotistical beasts under the skin , the part created in the likeness of our creator . Genesis 1:26 " ... make man in Our image, according to Our likeness " ; Psalm 82:6I — I have said, ‘Gods ye [are], And sons of the Most High — all of you,
7But as man ye die, and as one of the heads ye fall, ( YLT )

There is no end to the traits of an egotistical beast , the Elohim-want-to-be , is a drug .

24‘Seventy weeks are determined for thy people, and for thy holy city, to shut up the transgression, and to seal up sins, and to cover iniquity, and to bring in righteousness age-during, and to seal up vision and prophet, and to anoint the holy of holies.

Scripture proclaims , our Master came to his own and the " egotistical beast " reads it as private personal correspondence .

The exact year.

I predict that it will start getting cold in my state around October and November and last till around April. So what? Natural shifts in weather patterns have been happening for a millennia. Why would man's influence on climate change bring on the end of the world? There are measures we can take to prevent this.

You must have me mixed up with a futurist. As John said, the Revelation began "with speed" and the history books confirm that it has been unfolding for 17 centuries. The fulfillment of its prophesies proves that there is a God and He knows the future.

Did you predict the exact time and date of this event? Or did you make a vague prophecy like "I predict America will be attacked at some point that will be the sign of end times" And then use your confirmation bias when it happened?

The Battle of Ar Mageddon had to begin in 2001, the first year of the thousand-year "Day of the Lord" and the first year of the "Battle of That Great Day of God Almighty" as it is also known. It also has to start when the Euphrates is dry, and the E. was dry in Iraq in 2001, dried up by Saddam Hussein to prepare the way for the kings of the east as prophesied.

I don't just pick current events. The first seal, for example, was opened by Jesus in 312 AD when the sign of the Son of Man appeared in the clouds and Jesus came into power through St. Constantine who rode a white horse and conquered with a bow.

Who called World War 2 the "Great tribulation"? What was World War 1, The War of 1812, The Revolutionary War, etc? Is your "end of the world" view only exclusive with wars that America is involved in? What is plague 1,2,3,5 and 6 since you're so "accurate" at making vague predictions?

All of the prophesies concerning the Great Tribulation were fulfilled in WW II. For example, close to 200 million horses (under the hood) were unleashed on D-Day against Hitler the antichrist and the third of the earth aligned with him.

Skin cancer was the first plague to be poured out after WW II and it plagued a lot of NAZIs as prophesied. It continues to plague Aryans, the image worshiped by Hitler and his followers.

Red tides and fish kills is the 2nd plague. Scientists say that at the
rate fish are dying, there will be no fish in the sea by 2048.

Toxic fresh water, laced with brain-eating amoebas and other things, is plague # 3.

Plague # 5 is an increase in atheism and new diseases (such as AIDS, MRSA, etc.).

Plague # 6 is the drying up of the Euphrates by Saddam Hussein. He did it with a couple dams and a diversion canal that he named "The Mother of All Battles River."

Such a vague prediction. If you are some expert psychic on the future of the world, please include what the exact event will be. Also include the exact date and time of this event. There are other founding fathers besides George Washington. Describing a type of horse he owned and associate it with "4 horseman" is complete nonsense. There are plenty of people with white horses. Should we be terrified of them!? It's amazing to see the mental gymnastics people will do to confirm their bias.

There has only been one conqueror who rode a pale horse like Washington's "Blueskin." Presently we are dropping 100-pound "hailstones" on the latest face of the 7th head of Satan.[/quote]

The exact year.

Can you verify this? Surely you wrote it down. Or you're just making it up. There is no way to verify this. So I dismiss your claim.

You must have me mixed up with a futurist. As John said, the Revelation began "with speed" and the history books confirm that it has been unfolding for 17 centuries. The fulfillment of its prophesies proves that there is a God and He knows the future.

We're in the 21st century though. Not sure what you're talking about here. Does he provide exact dates, times, names? If not, it's a vague prophecy that is easily fulfilled and you can use your confirmation bias to confirm what you believe to be true.

The Battle of Ar Mageddon had to begin in 2001, the first year of the thousand-year "Day of the Lord" and the first year of the "Battle of That Great Day of God Almighty" as it is also known.

If 2001 is the year, then why is it not stated in your bible? It's a vague prophecy. Do you really think in this day and age that a river is really an obstacle for those who want to wage war? Lets consider this. Do you really think that Saddam Hussein was thinking "Hmmm...this river is really gonna be an issue for those who want to invade, we better get rid of it" Or is it someone trying to self fulfill a prophecy?

Lots of things appear in the clouds:

 

[Dave Watchman]

Lots of things appear in the clouds:

Man, that is beautiful. That is my cat Daisey. What is she doing in the sky?

I was reading in a Bible Prophecy study guide that the 6th bowl is symbolic language for destruction coming from the north.

"The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, to prepare the way for the kings from the east".​

The Euphrates river was a natural barrier to the north of Israel. It prevented invaders coming down from the north. So when it is dried up , the way is clear for divine destruction to arrive from the north. Nebuchadnezzar came from the north.

The Kings from the East are God and His Son Jesus, on their way to fight the bad guys at Armageddon . The good guys always come from the East:

"For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be".

"Then I saw another angel coming up from the east, having the seal of the living God".

"But reports will trouble him from the east and north, and he will set out in a tremendous rage to destroy and wipe out many"​

(him = Bad Guy)

(“Behold, I am coming like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake, keeping his garments on, that he may not go about naked and be seen exposed!”)

The thief comes only that he might steal and might kill and might destroy.

 

[Another Lazarus]

It seems like every other month another end of the world "prediction" comes along, just as a previous one bites the dust like all the rest. It's like a revolving door of never ending "end of the world" fixations.

People in Noah's time also felt the same about the coming destruction by flood in 120 years

Jesus bless u all HalleluYAH

 

[Strong in Him]

People in Noah's time also felt the same about the coming destruction by flood in 120 years

Not exactly.
Noah said that God would send a flood to destroy the earth; the people didn't believe him. No one set dates.

We believe that Jesus is coming again. We have been told that no one knows the day or hour. Some people seem to be saying "ah well that's ok then because he didn't say that no one can know the month or year", and are indeed setting dates. If I ignore all the dates that people set, that doesn't mean I am doubting the Lord's return, only a notion that we can know something which Jesus said that no one knows.

Jesus' return date has been set from the foundation of the world.

 

[ron4shua]

Hallelu-YAH .

 

[civilwarbuff]

Hallelu-YAH .

...and this has to do what with the OP? End of the world predictions are a dime a dozen and always wrong....in case you had not noticed.

 

[interpreter]

Can you verify this? Surely you wrote it down. Or you're just making it up. There is no way to verify this. So I dismiss your claim.

Yes of course I wrote it down. Since 1992 I have been publishing my annual predictions. For 15 years now I have placed my annual predictions on the internet. "2001 in Bible Prophecy" is on beliefnet. I am also in their book on 9/11. But I quit using b'net when they deleted one of my predictions because it offended atheists. For several years now I've posted my annual predictions on christianforums. But I'll have to quit using cf because they did not just delete one prediction, they deleted them all. So I am awful sorry but "2015 in Bible Prophecy" is no longer on the net.

We're in the 21st century though. Not sure what you're talking about here. Does he provide exact dates, times, names? If not, it's a vague prophecy that is easily fulfilled and you can use your confirmation bias to confirm what you believe to be true.

The Revelation began unfolding in 312, so it has been unfolding for a little over 17 centuries now. And Jesus gave us a foolproof "starguide" (in ch. 1) whose vectors point the reader to the exact spot where each of the good things foretold takes place. And in ch. 16 the Jerusalem-Euphrates vector passes through the capitals of the demon-possessed kings of the east. That is, a line drawn from Jerusalem to the epicenter of the dried-up Euphrates, and then extended to the east, passes through Baghdad, Kabul and Tehran like 3 ducks in a row. Two of the kings have already been disposed, Tehran is next in line.

If 2001 is the year, then why is it not stated in your bible?

It is, at least according to the dispensationalists, beginning with Genesis 1. The Wise Men were dispensationalists like many in Israel who believed the Messiah would be born at the beginning of the 5th 1000-year Day of God's plan for man, or exactly 4000 years after the appearance of Adam in the Garden of Eden (now Iraq) in 4000 BC. BTW, that happens to be exactly when and where the first civilization appeared (and the first writing, first farming, etc. -- in short, the first civilized man). And Jesus was born right on time. So for many centuries, even millennia, dispensationalists have said that the Day of the Lord, also called the Great Day of God Almighty, is the seventh 1000-year Day of Genesis -- which began in 2001 and is the last 1000-years of the existence of civilized man on earth.

It's a vague prophecy. Do you really think in this day and age that a river is really an obstacle for those who want to wage war? Lets consider this. Do you really think that Saddam Hussein was thinking "Hmmm...this river is really gonna be an issue for those who want to invade, we better get rid of it" Or is it someone trying to self fulfill a prophecy?

All of the fulfilled prophesies in the Revelation have been fulfilled by humans. So yes, Hussein dried up the Euphrates (and provoked the US) to bring about the prophesied Battle of Ar Mageddon. (Except the Muslims call it the Mother of All Battles and think they will win it).

How convenient. Surely you could have started your own website with these "predictions" if they were so accurate and important. But you didn't. Do you understand why myself and anyone else has absolutely no reason to believe any of this? You're making extraordinary claims and back peddling into "Oh but they got deleted, so you can't see them". I'll just go with you're being incredibly dishonest. Not everyone is as gullible as you wish they were bud.

 

[joshua 1 9]

The Bible tells us that nobody can actually predict the time or date in the first place,

Jesus was talking about two events at the same time, He was answering two questions. When the temple would be tore down and when the end of the age will be. We know the temple was tore down in around 70 AD and that is now a past event. I believe the church age begin at the first Pentecost. Best I can figure the 2000 year anniversary of the church will be in 2029. I am sure there will be lots of books written and lots of people wanting to cash in as we get closer to that year. The real place to look is at the Bride. If she is radiant without spot, blemish or wrinkle then you can know that Jesus is going to come for her soon. Perhaps this Jubilee is the time when Jesus will begin to do a work to prepare His Bride for when He is going to return for her. For those who are going to go up in the rapture the resurrection power of God should be at work in them to cause them to be Holy, Sanctified and Blameless before God.

 

[parousia70]

I think people just like to feel special.

They want to believe that they're in an important time, that they're at the pinnacle of society, and that, when they die, the world won't just keep on chugging along with them. I think on some level they realize the reality of it, but it doesn't matter - they WANT it to be the end.

BINGO!

 

[parousia70]

Not exactly.
Noah said that God would send a flood to destroy the earth; the people didn't believe him. No one set dates.

Really?

Genesis 7:4
For after seven more days I will cause it to rain on the earth forty days and forty nights, and I will destroy from the face of the earth all living things that I have made.”

Looks like God did indeed set and reveal the EXACT date of the flood.

Jesus' return date has been set from the foundation of the world.

Indeed it was. It is not a moving target.

 

[joshua 1 9]

"The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, to prepare the way for the kings from the east".​

The Euphrates river was a natural barrier to the north of Israel. It prevented invaders coming down from the north. So when it is dried up , the way is clear for divine destruction to arrive from the north. Nebuchadnezzar came from the north.

Isis now controls the dams on the Euphrates river. They can dry up the river anytime they want. Actually no one tried to stop them, there was no fight, they just went in and took control.

 

[parousia70]

Jesus was talking about two events at the same time, He was answering two questions. When the temple would be tore down and when the end of the age will be.

Hmmmm......What part of the discourse do you believe He answered question #1?

Also, what age do you believe the disciples were asking about the end of?

 

[parousia70]

Absolutely agree. We've been living in end times ever since the Lord Jesus ascended into heaven.

Interesting ... why do you pick the ascension as the event that marks the beginning of the last days? Why not the Birth of Christ? or even the conception? or perhaps the Baptism of Jesus?
