Are These The End Times? by huxley(m): 11:17pm On Dec 22, 2008
Are these the end times? What makes this period in history particularly propitious for the Jesus 2nd coming? Are there any things or projects you would not undertake for fear that you would not be able to complete before Jesus comes?

Would you avoid getting married, avoid having children, avoid getting educated or trained in a career, avoid seeking employment for fear that these endeavours would not be complete before Jesus returns?

Jesus answered that question if you only bothered to open the bible:

Luke 19:13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.

Huxley hun,

You should be thankful that I am obsessed with religion. Because if was not for me, many of you would not know what is in your bible.  Further, you would have the wool drawn over you face by some ignorant and false theologians here on NL.  As for me, I give it exactly as it is in the bible.

Now, is that really cool?

So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.

I've always like this prophecy. So precise and clear, and a giant FAIL.

Why spend so much time trying to twist misty prophecies onto historical facts but sweep by an obviously clear, failed one.

This is actually a pretty clear case of a prophecy fail. Did not Jesus say something about not all present there would see death before his return? (Sorry can't find the passage quickly). if nothing else, these and other passages point to a belief that the early Christians expected Jesus to return quite soon. Now, we all know that this did not happen.

Are these the end times?

What stage of life is it worse to die in?

At the peak of the mischief-making and sinful years. Some people die in childbirth, some in adolescence, some by suicide. Yet, this is the period of time in your life between the ages of 10 and 40. To die at this time is to die in danger, yet suicide is the worse.

If, however, you knew that you have fulfilled all the qualifications and commandments (mandatory laws) sent down by the Eloheem, then death wouldn’t frighten you at all. In fact, your chances of being amongst the 144,000 chosen, and gaining what you call paradise are more assured. On the other hand, if you are young and involved in acts of wrong-doings (prostitution, fornication, intoxicationism, deception, thievery, etc.), then you should try to grant an extended chance to amend your ways and to atone for your evil actions and pray for old-age as a chance to ‘cool off’ and start all over again. To be reborn not of the body, but of the etheric being, in order to transform when the time comes.

Matthew 24:4-14
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.

10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

14[b] And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.[/b]

144,000 out of more than 6 billion people? Hell, I'll take my chances with the 5.8 billion people remaining and we'll overrun your paradise.
