I believe we are living in the last days. Although, I don’t believe 2012 will be the year.

[John O]

We can’t know the date, but we can know the season.

I think we are getting pretty close (although I’ve not looked into it in depth yet. I figure when Jesus calls us up, then we’ll know)

[Genoa]

No one knows the day or hour. But we have been told to look for an intensification of evil in the last days. Do we notice that today? I won't be surprised if the Lord Jesus returns before I'm done keying this.

[SJSAMPLE]

As long as I’m around to see it.

My parents were not very religious (actually, my Mother was very anti-). Back in the 70's, my father knew a fellow at work who was sure the world was ending: Jesus was coming! So the guy took out loans and mortgages he couldn't pay back -- because he wouldn't have to -- Jesus was coming!

My parents laughed about that a lot. I don't know what happened to the guy. I think that maybe he hadn't really nailed down the whole Christian lifestyle thing.

Personally, I'm not taking out any loans, and I'm trying to be as personally responsible as ever. But I think I understand how that guy felt -- I'm pretty sure that the day is coming soon. I hope so. I'm ready.

I have been wondering too. Many strange dreams. Dreamed last night that my wife and I were stuck in some strange building, a plane was about to leave, and some gate keeper wrangled us some tickets to get on the last plane out. I did start reading Revelation again last night, and have been reading Billy Graham's “Storm Warning”. Probably just dinner.

“2012” is a bunch of superstitious hokum.

It is possible we are nearing the end. It is also possible we won’t near the end for another millenium. Live like He’s coming tomorrow ... plan like He’s not coming in your lifetime.

I’ll believe that Christ has returned when I cease to be greeted by the Holy Spirit when I wake up in the morning.

Are they interested in selling hard assets for ten cents on the dollar?

Some say after two years of unchecked oil leakage from the gulf, life as we know it will end, due to destruction of the oceans.

The generation that is alive when the fig tree blossoms will not die before seeing the coming of the Lord. The fig tree is Israel. It bloomed in 1948. I was that generation. I'm ever hopeful, continually praying for His return. Obama is not the Antichrist, he's part of the advance team.

[mlocher]

Mankind has been predicting Jesus second coming since his death. We are in the end times, but the end times could culminate a long time from now.

In the 1960s and 1970s, the Jehovah's Witnesses liked to predict the end of the earth. It may have been in 1972 that my younger sister's friend (a JW) told her the world was ending soon. My sister disrupted dinner with her worries a few days in a row. Finally my mom told her, "Since the world is coming to an end, your friend will not need her toys. Ask her if you can have them. If she gives you her toys, than she truly believes the world is ending."

The next day my sister came home with a big smile on her face and said, "KC would not give me her toys." Mealtime back to normal, at least temporarily....

Jesus said he was finishing his Father's work, in context of the Kingdom of Heaven. When that work is done, I expect this world to conclude. That could be very soon, but I also expect 2013 to follow 2012. If this is the very end, things will start getting very bad. If that time had not been cut short, no man would survive. That makes me think things are going to get pretty rough.

[ichabod1]

Yeah, we can’t know the date. But the Lord did say something along the lines of “You FOOLS. You can see the signs of the skies and know what the weather is going to be. Why can you not see the signs of the times?”

[Shadowstrike]

Taking steps toward it, but no man can know the hour He returns.

Watch and pray, live you life for Him.
