"It couldn't happen in our time - right? I mean, come on. Don't be ridiculous."
Now let's be honest, at some point have you ever let the thought that just maybe the end of the world is upon us cross your mind. Listen, you don't have to raise your hand and be identified publicly as some sort of kook. It is just between us here. I just wonder, "have you ever wondered?"
Honestly, it has crossed my mind. And, I have clients that swear that 2012 will end everything. Personally, I subscribe to the Bible which states that no man knows the date. But the idea, well, when coupled with everything going on in this day and age, well - it is a little too spooky to be all together kooky.
I know what you mean there. Ditto to that one.
2012 wouln’t end anything except an era. It would have to last until 2019?
“As long as Im around to see it.”
At that time I’d pay just about anything to see the look on the faces of Michael Neudow, Bill Maher and Kathy Griffin.
Some say after two years of unchecked oil leakage from the gulf, life as we know it will end, due to destruction of the oceans.
In the 1960s and 1970s, the Jehovah's Witnesses liked to predict the end of the earth. It may have been in 1972 that my younger sister's friend (a JW) told her the world was ending soon. My sister disrupted dinner with her worries a few days in a row. Finally my mom told her, "Since the world is coming to an end, your friend will not need her toys. Ask her if you can have them. If she gives you her toys, than she truly believes the world is ending."
The next day my sister came home with a big smile on her face and said, "KC would not give me her toys." Mealtime back to normal, at least temporarily....
Exactly what does “alive” mean, I was born in 44 so I was alive in 48 but so were my parents who are both dead now.
Yeah, we can’t know the date. But the Lord did say something along the lines of “You FOOLS. You can see the signs of the skies and know what the weather is going to be. Why can you not see the signs of the times?”
What difference does that make, really? A lot better men than you have passed since Our Lord made that promise, without seeing it. Blessed are those who believe because they saw signs but even more blessed are they who saw no signs and believed.
Right. If WWII wasn’t the end of days, if the holocaust wasn’t the end of days, who knows how bad things are going to get?
What I believe now, though, is that WWII was a pushing back of a tide of evil, of a new barbarianism, that we aren’t able to hold back now. The devil is loosed upon the world, cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war. And all that jazz.
Because I want to SEE it.
Should be a helluva time.
We both got left. :-(
I believe he is the former though.
I want to believe he is simply a piker but I've been wrong before.
It's not hard to imagine at all.
An end to the idiots reign. I can't stand that 0-hole.
We’ve been in the last days for just under two millennia now; so I guess I’ll have to agree with you.
Taking steps toward it, but no man can know the hour He returns.
Watch and pray, live you life for Him.
2012 scam is pure hocus pokus bogus to any one who has even an elementary understanding of history..... The hype is totally out of the “New Age” groupies and other groupies who have wrapped themselves in it......... The internet is a cheap way to spread this quackery and plenty people out there who fill the voids in their life by believing it. Few if any are interested in the facts, rather they go link to link of those promoting it and call it research. It’s all Hogwash!.......There is big money to be made by those pushing this crap....seminars, books, speaking engagements and they are laughing all the way to the bank.
