[SubMareener]

And because there is hard evidence under the seas and in the mountains that the end-of-time, at least as how the contemporary folks knew it, has come before. And it has come much more quickly than most are willing to accept.

It’s because people don’t know there Bible. They Just listen to the sound bites.

There is No End Of The World coming up. If we follow down the wrong path (which it seem like) There will be some very bad hard times coming up but no end times. As in the

Read carefully the kingdom on earth will go on forever & ever.
