As a Christian I always wondered how the END TIMES

It's interesting to see, for sure.

There's a reason they don't attack Hinduism, Islam, Buddhism, Judaism, etc.

They attack Christianity because Christ is the TRUTH.

It's ok though, because we all know how it ends.

Social media has ruined this country and the world

.this is the beginning of the end...

Yep...the "end" of one seriously corrupt Paradigm...and the beginning of another. The new one with Jesus Christ as it's "chief cornerstone".

They say that those who set lofty goals, never see the obstacles between them and their goals, because they a keenly focused on the goal. We should zoom in, focus on Love, and not the limitation of our flawed intellect and willpower...but on the Mercy of our Lord. Don't matter that they close down our 'churches', because Love dwells in our heart, not at a group meeting.

This anti-God Movement - cloaked as being altruistic - will likely assume great power, because for the sake of 'security'...most all people will lend that power. And that power ("the beast") will turn on us, at some point. But it won't last long (3 1/2 years per prophecy). 2/3 of our Kind may lose this life, with the Good Lord stepping in "for the sake of the Elect"...but if we live forever (per Religion/Truth)...then a single and formative life is but a drop in an ocean of time.

Thank you Jesus. The 'Lie' is fast approaching it's end.

I'm always amazed at how much Christians are obsessed with the end times

What’s good will he called bad and what’s bad will he called good. Just like what we are seeing today.

That’s one reason I converted to Catholicism from an evangelical denomination many years ago. That shite is just not important to my daily life. If it’s the end of the world, I’ll be ready.

There are plenty of Protestant eschatological views that don't involve dispensational pre trib rapture 19th century quackery.


That's a poor reason to become Catholic. Just because most Protestants like to read themselves into texts that were written to first century Jewish Christians as the immediate audience doesn't mean they are correct.


When you tell them most of revelation was fulfilled in the first century and was about Rome, they say "I take my Bible literally"

When at the same saying the Mark of the beast is a symbol of a chip and other things are symbols for tanks and helicopters.


666 is Nero Caesar. Hand and Head is a reference to the jewish custom of the Shema and Deuteronomy 11:13-21. It's about not bowing to Caesar as God under persecution to Rome.The Olivet discourse in Matthew 24 is about Jesus coming in judgement against Jerusalem and the end of the Jewish Age. In AD 70 this judgement came through Rome destroying the temple. 40 years later which is a generation. Which is what Jesus meant by “This generation will not pass away until these happen. Not his second physical return. If you make Matthew 24 about end times you make Jesus a false prophet. Amillenials,or post millennials with a partial preterist view has the strongest exegetical evidence.

Pre trib dispensationalist are just people reading themselves into the Bible.

Jesus is coming physically again. To physically resurrect us. Nobody knows when. Stop buying the end times crap that every generation does. Just because the church is about to be persecuted and forced underground doesn’t mean your interpretation of revelation is true.

I’ve always wondered why the U.S. doesn’t show up as an ally to Israel or anything in Revelation. I think it’s because we won’t exist or will be too weak to have any real roll in the end times. With how things are right now, I could see us getting to the point where our country collapses or is just very weak by the time the end times come.

See my post above. Question your traditions with the actual Word of God.

This is typically the case.

Honestly, I don’t know atheists who claim to hold science in high regard aren’t racists.

Are their not genetic differences that lead to higher incidents of disease and cancer between races? Do the olympics not prove there are differences in ability based on genetics? Ethiopians seem to dominate distance running (not just Ethiopians, but a specific tribe from Ethiopia). West Africans dominate the sprints (Jamaicans and other Caribbean blacks are West Africans brought over to pick sugar cane). So if there are differences in every other faucet of the human body, how did evolution magically spare the brain?

Are not there differences in aggression, intelligence, and behavior between breeds of dogs? Are there not also in breeds of cows? Is a docile milk cow not less aggressive than what they use for max yields in meat or use in bull fighting? So why does evolution magically work differently in homo-sapiens than it does in every other animal?
