The Bible is more than clear in its theological claim that Jesus Christ will return to Earth at an undisclosed, future time. In fact, that belief is a central hallmark of the Christian faith.
And the latter point about the timing is essential to highlight, as scripture makes it clear that no one knows exactly when the so-called second coming will unfold. Yet, once again, here we are with some Christians setting a specific date September 23, 2017 for the purported fulfillment of certain prophetic signs or events.
It seems bizarre, considering that the Bible repeatedly and clearly speaks to our inability to know exactly when end-times events and particularly Jesus return will unfold. Matthew 24:36-37 tells us, But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man and Mark 13:32 says the same.
But as I noted in my book The Armageddon Code: One Journalist's Quest for End-Times Answers, time and again throughout history people have sought to ignore these verses and predict exactly when they believe the rapture the belief that Christians will be taken up before cataclysmic, end-times events kick into high gear or the end itself will unfold.

You obviously have no comprehension of either statement.
No large iron thing is going to crash on anything.
The entire creation is going to be dis-created instantaneously because there will no longer be a purpose for it.. No collisions.

Yeah, right?
