Greetings! I would like to recall that the scripture says: that no one knows the day or the hour when the Son of Man comes. And, as lightning can be seen from the east to the west; so the sign of the coming of the son of man in His Glory. Also, there are certain signs which must take place before the events unfold as written in Scripture in Revelation and Daniel and Others. However, The Apostle writes: this is the last hour. For today is the day of Salvation and The Lord comes in the twinkling of an eye. His Name is God with Us: Immanuel. For He has said: surely I will be with you even to the very end of the age. When The Lord Jesus comes to Reign at Jerusalem as the Rightful Heir and High Priest of God, it is written that it will take 7 years, in Isaiah, to clean up the idolatry and wickedness to purify and sanctify and cleanse the land of the former ages where God has called the city to figuratively represent sodom and gomorrah as written in revelation. For instance, the 'chaballah' and other unwise writings. In the mean time, if we confess our sins He is faithful and Just (merciful) to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Amen. quote:

Israel reborn in 1948 and the 3-4 miraculous wars God has defended them from. The great falling away from God known as moral relativeism, the new age, post modern morals etc. The search for a fleshy "messiah" man to give people all of their hearts desires and solve worldwide problems. Liberalism oh I could go on.

I have been watching 2 things closely. 1. The return of the Jews to their homeland. Which was over 5 million last year. 2. The 3rd Temple is currently on the construction clock. Otherwise the weather, and war and this Meeting Russia is have with all their neighbors has me interested.

I deffantly think that Jesus will return VERY soon. For one, I know that we are in what they call a recetion, about to go into another Depression. And this one is going to be BAD. Really bad. I have the feeling. Everyone laughs at me when I say this, but I look at not only the big things going ion, I look at the tinest things too. You know those little packs of gum, like Big Red, and Juicy Fruit. Well, they use to be 25 cents, now they are 35 cents. I know its a little thing, and you will probably laugh a little not meaning too. But, if those little packs of gum, are going to go up, what do you think is next? I believe that the Anti-Christ has to come when there is something real big happening. Because he has to look like the good guy, come in and save everybody from the world disasters. I believe thst this Depression is going to be huge, and really really bad. Alot worse than the last one. For one, to many people now take too much for granted. We have our cars. But, whats going to happen if they can't afford to pay for gas? They are going to lose there job, because they can't get there. They are going to lose there home because they can't pay there rent, bills, or taxes is owning a home. So, when they lose there home, they either have to sleep in the car, (if they can afford to even sleep there,) sleep on the sidewalk, or a family members home. But, what if there family member lost there home too. So, they are on the street. There is going to be riots. You think that this world is dangeress? Just wait till we go into a Depression. Also, there are alot of country's that want to distroy this country, or own it. Well, being in a depression is going to make us very very weak. So, thats going to give them a way to get to us. To come into our country. I know God is with us, and can save us from all this. But, if its ment to happen, and if its part of the End, than he isn't going to stop it. He might make it a little better for us Christians, and bless us with things everyday to guide us through this. But, if this is going to bring the Anti-Christ in, then God has to let this happen. Because if the Anti-Christ don't come, than Jesus ain't going to come back. I've always belived that I will still be on this earth when the end comes. Maybe not through the whole thing, but the start of it at least. Right now people belive we are in what they call, Birth Pains. I belive that too. Things are being set up, for the anti-Christ to come. Oh also, I don't believe this guy is the Anti-Christ but it did scare me a little. I do believe there is something to this guy though. I don't know what, but its something. Just look in his eyes. http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t164/krazed_nickie/Labour_manifesto_97.jpg This is the picture that scared me. http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t164/krazed_nickie/TonyBlairArmagh1998.jpg If you don't know what I'm talking about in this picture, look again.

The one that they are suppose to build for the Anti-Christ? If, so I want to know where I can read about about it. And you are right, alot of Jews have been going back home. They've been going home since the Holocaust. So, you know its close. Very close.

Whether or not Jesus returns any time soon, He could call you or me to come face to face with Him before the sun goes down today. Only a fool boasts of tomorrow, so we should live - and work for the Kingdom - as if today is our last one on earth because it just may be.

Also, the jews did'nt belive that Jesus was there Messiah because 1, they belive that he is suppose to be the blood son of Joseph, or David. I don't really rember. So, that would have to mean that the Anti-Christ has to be a decindent, of one of those 2. Sorry, I've been have problems lately and I need to get back on track with God. Which I'm planning on doing, and doing right now. They didn't believe that Jesus was the Messiah, because he wasn't blood, in there eyes. Sorry, I just posted a huge reply, I could go on and on. If anyone has any information, or have been reading something, please let me, know. I like to keep track everything.

As I see it a couple of end time prophesies have been already fulfilled. So I'm watching to see if others occur. But I'm thinking the 2 minute warning event is in Luke 21. When Gentiles no longer walk the streets of Jerusalem. And when they start building the 3rd temple. The problem with the building of the 3rd temple that I see is that the Jews are waiting for a chosen one to appear. They really want a prophet or Messiah to appear to tell them it's time. And it seems they were expecting the possibility of three chosen ones. Maybe the 3rd chosen one will show up? Or a reasonable facsimile thereof to get things rolling.

I thought Jesus' return was eminent over 45 years ago. How much closer are we now? However, I think we should be more concerned about our relationship with Jesus and being ready to celebrate in eternity with Him than concerning ourselves with end times issues. The end time that I have to worry about most is mine, not the worlds. God bless you as you prepare for that beautiful day when this life is over and we are in the eternal presence of Jesus.

You're a little premature the work isn't done yet. (The work of witnessing) Do you mean to say that we should all go to Church and enter some ecstatic state of "worship" My brother would always go inside the house when the tomato plants were not all planted. He never got any praise at the end of the day.

Well, technically this is a forum, not a blog, but no worries. : ) I'm guessing you were referring to "OP". That generally means "Original Post," or "Original Poster." What I was trying to say was this: You said that you "could go on," and I was encouraging you to do so, since the sort of information you were providing is what the OP (first post in this thread) was asking for. I hope I was not taken as rude, because it certainly was not my intention!

I think at this point & time we are steam rolling to the return of Christ. Watch I ran and Russia over the next week like a hawk. Russia tells the media that I ran is bad then they turn around and sell them missle's and a lot of 'em. We all know what Iran will do. But, watch Russia who are indeed in a confrance with their neighbors. Something's big is about to happen.

Nope, they just moved on to their next wild prediction and pretended they haven't made a string of false prophesies since the presumed to know the mind of God on His plans.

Biblefreak, Jimbo is going off a very consistent pattern for those who make claims similar to the ones you made. If you want to prove him wrong, come back in a week and comment on what you have said today!

Incredible things have happened in every generation. Some thought the destruction of the temple in 70 AD was a sign of the end. Some thought the muslim takeover of Jerusalem. Some thought the four crusades might be the signs. Now some think it's all these things. Think what you will, but it really doesn't change how we as Christians ought to live our lives. We shouldn't be so stuck on this thought about the end that we neglect the rest of God's work and God's word.

We have just recently entered into a media age where world-wide events are made available for common knowledge. Before, it would take days, if not weeks, for events to get reported from across the sea. But now, it takes hours, maybe minutes, and sometimes seconds! So, I would say that events have always been happening across the globe, but until now our eyes were too small to see them.
