I heard from someone at a religious retreat, when I was a young adult, that there was a woman hearing divine messages. The world was going to end in a year with two blue moons

Oh geeze. It disturbed me

I learned never to trust when people say they hear from God without, in my case, a Catholic- without Vatican intense research and approval

I never pay attention to these. I’ve been hearing end of works predictions before and after They are stupid. They mean nothing even if they happen to be true.

In the Gospel it is said no one knows. I’ve heard and refuted every argument against it. I adhere to the principle of it. Don’t dwell on the end. Just always be ready. That’s all

People love to tell me they know when it will end

You’re right. Now and again someone will confidently predict the end. Are they all charlatans? Or are they just misinformed?

Anyway, the Bible is quite clear on this.

No one knows when that day or time will be. The Son and the angels in heaven don’t know when it will be. Only the Father knows.
- Matthew 24:36

Well said.

Only God knows the time of existential events.
