Are you gnostic, prophetic or foolish... I can come up with dozens of senarios that predict dates. Probably should stay away from fixing dates since "no man knows the hour...".

Apparently, you didn't write this missy.

It has no merit. Do not be deceived by it.

People have been predicting the end of the world for thousands of years. I think it's a sign of vanity that they always think it will happen in their lifetime.

Jesus would be very dissappointed. But he forgives.

some of these interpretations of the text are fairly loose

That would be an understatement.

"..and the moon shall not give her light, And the stars of heaven shall fall..."

moonlight dimmed from cloud of comet dust? comet dust falling to earth making falling stars?

Didn't Jesus say something about the Final Days coming like a theif in the night, that attempting to predict its onset would be frivolous?

OTOH, the MSM loves to wave articles like this as "proof" that RedStaters are all a bunch of crazy fundies waiting for the Mothership to arrive. Why give them the ammunition?

NO ONE knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but ONLY the Father. Matt 24:36

When will it happen? This is a quote from Mark 13:14-28:

I believe verse 30: "Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place."

In other words, it happened in the first century.

1. A generation in the Bible (post-flood) was upwards of 100 years. Now it is around 70.

2. Israel was again formed in 1947 or so. 70 years later, it is 2017. 12 years.

No no no. The book "The Bible Code" suggests 2006. You're a year off... :)

Missyme, from our correspondence on FR, I actually respect you as a free thinker in the best sense of the word. But you are swimming in some pretty strong currents without a tether. Knowing you, I trust you are simply passing this on for discussion, maybe a little devil's advocacy, and not really trying to assert the truth of this. But you are starting to worry me.

Speculation is a healthy exercise for a free mind, but find some core beliefs to prevent yourself from being swept away in the current: This work is plainly the product of a crackpot.

I think that prophesy is very fascinating, but at the same time I would much rather not know the day nor the hour. Some people may live in fear of that date. Just be ready, that is all wwe have to do.

I missed the part where the number "19" enters the picture.

Can you give us an explanation?

That'd be nice, but it's most probably not gonna happen.

Ah, God doesn't go by our time table.

Matt. 24:36&44

[36] But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

[44] Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

Maybe it's from 1948 or was it 46' when Israel became a state? I hear a generation could be 70 years. The point is this, no one knows and you won't be guessing it. It will be when you least expect it.

Only God knows the time.

But what if 2007 comes and there is no rapture? Good question, no?
