Yep, I can say with confidence I have no idea when Jesus will return or what will happen upon his return; but I do know we will all finally pay our dues, like it or not.

I also believe that we are close to the end times. The turnaround from what was taboo when I was growing up to the "anything goes" mentality that has been sweeping our country is disturbing. A culture of morals and values do still exist but it doesn't appear to be as dominant among most people as when I was growing up. Respect for "anything or anybody" has taken a backseat to immorality. I do see hope in some of the younger generation of today that are taking abstinence seriously, planning for their future, and enlisting to serve their country during times of crisis. To these young Americans, I say thank you, my faith is restoring.

"but I do know we will all finally pay our dues, like it or not."

Dear Brian, You express youself in an interesting way. Perhaps I'm reading too much into such a short reply, but the central point in Jesus' life and death was that none of us could pay our dues. Jesus not only paid our dues, but our entire membership for eternity. That's the very heart of the Gospel.

The biggest problem that I have with Farah and others similar to him is not the fanciful and contorted use of Scriptures that they employ to prove some wacky idea, but the way in which they turn grace into law. I see Satan using Farah and his ilk to deceive so many. The very people that see the demonic in the world can't discern the real Satan in their midst.
