That was written 2,000 years.
I think it foolish for people to read end times predicting into every natural disaster that happens.
I find it foolish, and faulty theology. It erodes the credibility of the Christian message.
Paul wrote and admonished those early Christians who were doing the same thing. They were sitting around and not working as they assumed the end was imminent.

The entire Scripture was written a couple of thousand years ago. So what?

Do you dismiss all of it? Or do you pick and choose what you like and dislike in God's Word and go from there in deciding what is factual and true and what should be ignored by fallen man?

And I haven't seen anyone "reading end times" into every natural disaster that happens. People who bring up the fact that we are living in the last hours before Christ's return take seriously all of the signs that He gave us to look for before His return which are happening in conjunction with one another like He said they would.

The foolish ones are those who are told about these things, and, in their flawed, sinful human "logic" and "reason" decide that it's all fairy tales and can be ignored and discarded.

That is what is really foolish- to laugh at and dismiss the warnings Jesus so graciously gave us for our own eternal survival. And you know what the cold part is? You can never say you weren't told.
