And we are coming apart at the seams, and on a global scale to boot.
That of all things, is what convinces me that we're in the end times. There are no new continents where anyone can go and start over.
Right now, bad as things are in this country, we're still the best this world has to offer. We're the last bastion of any real kind of freedom.
When we're done, the world is. And I fear it won't be long.
Exactly. The collapse is global and the soon-to-appear Antichrist's solutions to all the problems will be what a desperate world will do anything for.
You've named my fear metmom.
Let me be a bit of a contrarian for a moment. We are seeing the collapse of western civilization, but other civilizations are emerging. In the southern hemisphere Brazil is growing and Evangelicals are becoming a real force there. In Asia, China is emerging and the last estimate I saw claimed there are 200 million Evangelical Christians there. In the middle east, India is growing and Evangelicals are making in roads there as well.
None of these emerging powerhouses is a friend to Israel, but if Evangelical Christians keep growing in power in these nations that will change. My point being we may be a long way from the Rapture and then the Tribulation.
