If you're a tad interested/curious, stay on, because I want to inform you.
Every Saturday, as long as I am free, my aunt/cousin/uncle will come to my house & do bible study with me (since young).
The past 2 Sat, we've been talking about when the world is going to end. Some predicted it to be 21 Dec 2012 (and others here - no idea about their credibility, don't seem realistic though)
The Bible, however, do not state exactly when the world will come to an end. But it speaks of what will happen when the world is coming to an end.
This, is what I am going to blog about.
My bible: New World Bible Translation
While he was sitting upon the Mount of Olives, the disciples approached him privately, saying "Tell us, when will be the sign of your presence & of the conclusion of the system of things?" And in answer, Jesus said to them "Look out that nobody misleads you; for many will come on the basis of my name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and will mislead many. You are going to hear of wars & reports of wars; see that you are not terrified. For these things must take place, but the end is not yet.
For nations will rise against nation & kingdom against kingdom, and there will be food shortages & earthquakes in one place after another. All these things are the beginning of distress.
- Matthew 24:3-8
and there will be great earthquakes, and in one place after another pestilences and food shortages; & there will be fearful sights & from heaven great signs.
-Luke 21:11 (read Luke 21:7-19 for more)
Isn't all these true.? Matthew/Luke was written more than 2000 years ago (roughly). And those that I bold, are starting to be more frequent than the past.
As a human, you can hardly predicted things that happen the next day/week/month/year - so for such prediction that is occurring as predicting, must be accurate.
Don't you agree?
Look at how true that "earthquakes in one place after another".
The Straits Times, 26 March 2011
But he that has endured to the end is the one that will be saved.
And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.
- Matthew 24:13-14
Suppose many of you feel that it is GOD(Jehovah) that caused the earthquakes/natural disasters, because of the Noah's Ark & past incidence(s) but let me quote from the bible, and show you that its not HIS doing.
And war broke out in heaven: Michael (Jesus) and his angels battled with the dragon (Satan)...So down the great dragon was hurled, the original serpent, the one called Devil and Satan, who is misleading the entire inhabited earth, and his angels were hurled down with him.
- Revelation 12:7-9
By this we shall know that we originate with God, but the whole world is lying in the [power of the] wicked one.
- 1 John 5:19
Yes, for a fact, GOD himself does not act wickedly.
- Job 34:12
So, the scriptures above support that Satan is 'controlling' the Earth, and it is his doing to all that it happening today.
Some churches may say that Jesus = God.
To prove them wrong, here's a scripture to differ their claim.
Jesus said to him: "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
- John 14:6
In the last days, we also see people of all kind. Read more at 2 Timothy 3:1-5!
- Lovers of themselves/money
- Disobedient to parents
- Disloyal
- Having no natural affection
- Without self-control
- Fierce
- Lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God
- Having a form of godly devotion but proving false to its power
According to the bible, the system of things will come to an end. Paradise (the new Earth) will come, read about paradise at Isaiah 65:20-25, Psalm 37:10-11, Psalm 67:6, Isaiah 11:6-9..
Has been lengthy, but true.
Placed down the bible scriptures so y'all can read more! (:
I may not be in the position/professional enough, but see it to believe it.
God Bless You!
