Mine doesn’t neglect it. It was mentioned last Sunday in fact. I think there were some three hundred regarding Jesus .

There are many reasons. I’m sure I won’t be listing all of them. The western church has been at ease in Zion. It has some doctrines that have helped develop that ‘comfort’ that (I believe) are not biblical. I’m not going to get into a scripture throwing contest. I will just say this… not many are willing to live the crucified life that Jesus calls us to. We have wanted Jesus and the world too - but mostly settled for the world. The last real move of God in the U.S. was back in the late 60’s early 70’s. The book, The Late Great Planet Earth was terrible from a sound biblical perspective but it got people talking. I believe many came to Christ through the end time warnings it raised. Unfortunately, it became like the story of the Boy Who Cried Wolf. Jesus was going to be coming back almost every weekend. Every news item was used to warn of Jesus eminent return. Call it rambunctious but eventually, it turned people off. The heretic, Rick Warren, calls eschatology a diversion. The Bible warns that at the end, men will be lovers of themselves. We could talk hours just on that! It also says evil men will get worse and worse. Have you checked out our government lately? Jesus warned about deception more than anything else when his disciples asked about his return and the signs leading up to it. I attend a wonderful church. The pastor is solid and preaches the Word well. We have a great choir - wonderful music and pretty good worship (not like the Assembly of God church I once attended, but pretty good). In all my 13 yrs there, there has never been a message on eschatology. I think it’s because it’s a complicated subject and getting people saved is seen as primary (as if the two were unrelated). I think another reason is that most pastors know there’s a ton of stuff on Youtube and if people are interested, well, they can go there. It’s frustrating when you see many signs of Christ’s return all over the world. I feel the four horsemen are saddled up and the white could ride very soon.

Why Study Prophecy?

>>>

David was also promised that one of his descendants would sit on his throne, though David remains dead and buried while Jesus lives again.

That is why David also foresaw His exalted Son ascending into heaven, and he foreheard, “The LORD said to my Lord, sit at My right hand, until I make Your enemies a footstool for your feet…”

Fools who shout “SHEPHERD!” too many times in vain make common cause with wolves who harm the sheep.

Others are openly hostile toward Bible prophecy. Rick Warren, a prominent pastor who leads a huge church and is a best-selling author, characterizes prophecy as a “distraction” and says that anyone who lets himself get involved in distractions like studying prophecy “is not fit for the kingdom of God.” Another well-known advocate of re-envisioned Christianity, Tony Campolo, said, “Rigid Christians who believe in the possibility of Jesus’ soon return are a real problem for the entire world.” Clearly, these men express a hostility toward Bible prophecy that is disturbing.

They probably would have reacted to the prophecy of His first coming the same way.

That thought doesn't seem to occur to people, that those who scoff about the prophecy over HIs second coming would likely for HIs first as well.

They sound like they'd have joined right in with the Pharisees.

Since Jesus came according to SCRIPTURE and not according to how they were expecting Him, they rejected HIM.

People need to be careful when deciding to accept or reject teaching whether they are accepting or rejecting it based on their expectations of how it's being fulfilled.

It all boils down to satan wanting to put the church to sleep, to infiltrating it with wolves, to making it ineffective in today's world. Laodecia lives in America, and honestly, around most of the world as well.

But for those of us who are trying to stir up a sleeping church, to trying to encourage the masses to stay alert, we see it for what it is and if nothing else, it prods us on.

[Salvavida]

Because the cowardly, arrogant, prideful, addicted church won’t even resolve fundamental differences among them, in order to have ONE consistent voice.

It doesn’t disciple and it doesn’t administer church discipline. So it has lost its voice.

Excellent post and thread. Thank you.

Christianity (every “denomination”) is a paulinist construct perpetuated by earthly men. No christian denomination has a real prophet because Christianity doesn’t adhere to Jesus’ words/teachings. Christians follow Paul. Christian “prophecy” is eisegesis (reading what you want into scripture). All of this numerology and bible code nonsense (the “bible is a creation of paulinist men 1,000+ years ago so why would heaven pay any attention to 2,000 years of false nonsense). Jesus himself said not to divinate the “end times”: "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. If people actually followed Jesus’ teachings and not the paulinist nonsense then people wouldn’t have time nor a need to falsely prophesize and spread their idiocy around.

Romans 5:1-2 says, "Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God."

Note the end of the sentence. How many sermons have you heard about rejoicing in hope of the glory of God? Rejoicing in hope requires understanding prophecy of our resurrection and the glory God will share with us.

Red letter Bibles?
Don’t misunderstand the thinking behind the red-letter editions. The reason is blood. The words spoken by Jesus during His earthly ministry are colored red to remind us of the shedding of His blood.

It is no different than using a highlighter, in yellow, or underlining. I have known a few Christians through the years who would underline everything. That does you absolutely no good. I have known a few believers through the years that opposed marking their Bible in any way whatsoever. I consider this to be superstitious.

I have a 1972 edition of the Thomas Nelson KJV. It has Jesus’ words in Revelation and Acts also in red, and even in Corinthians, “This is my body,” is in a beautiful red. Very nice. I prefer the Cambridge Bible however, which has red letters only in the gospels and on the first page of Acts. My Cambridge Cameo edition has a bright red cover, a bright red ribbon and bright red letters. It is also from the 1970’s.

The letters are NOT red anymore! They are now kind of pinkish gray, not red at all. Rather ugly, and hard to read, you should not bother with them. Red ink is very expensive, and the publishers started diluting the red ink with black in the eighties.
