we will never know that stuff is happening, there will be no warning and the anti-Christ won’t hang a sign around his/her neck
The vast majority of Christians are going to follow the anti-Christ
If you think you can point to signs that the ‘seals’ have been opened, then you are wrong. IMO
Why wouldn’t we believe it? The Bible is God’s infallible word.
I’ve read apparently firsthand accounts of a very large asteroid described as “horrible in it’s blackness” making what sounds like a glancing blow throught the upper atmosphere, in an Old English an account from the early middle ages. The sound was the most terrifying thing, according to this. No, I can’t provide a source or a link. I encountered it in the process of researching mass behavior during plague outbreaks, it was peripheral. I remember it because it was so unusual.
We’ve lived in a period of relative inactivity, speaking both geologically and astronomically. Many accounts coming down from ancient history that have been written off as somehow fantastical have factual origins in these, as do many elements of prophecy, imho.
I don’t see such prophecies as having been fulfilled, though.
Okay...

The Silk Road had been open for 3500 years in whole or part, and that was just eliminated from 535 to the late 1300s.
That was Biblical level destruction!
You can easily see the Beast coming out of the pit ~ the darkness directly overhead that's not on the plane of the Ecliptic ~
The problem isn’t God’s word, it is the Dispensational Premillenialist interpretation of it that doesn’t make sense. They claim to have a literal interpretation of scripture, but continually interpret it allegorically (e.g. locusts from the bottomless pit become attack helicopters, stars falling from the sky are nuclear missles, and the mark of the beast becomes an embedded computer chip), Most premillennialists do not know that the dominant view among protestants from the Reformation through most of the 19th century was postmillennialism. Dispenstional Premillennialism only became the prevalent teaching after the Scofield Reference Bible was published in 1909. Premillennialists are often unaware of the many serious theological and exegetical problems that accompany their interpretation. Add that to the inherrent arrogance of the modern “evangelical movement”, and you don’t have towonder why many folks are skeptical of these interpretaions

This teaching is right on target.
Oh it will be, it will be, serving as breaking news.
Can you explain why no such warnings please. Thank-you.
Oh there will be rumblings and wars and rumors of wars but the book of Revelations is all the warning we need.
But nobody knows the time or date it will happen, it will be like a thief in the night.
and most professed Christians will likely follow the anti-Christ until it is too late
For such a time as this . . . http://patburt.com/
Wow! Seek help...
Well, we’ll find out eventually. And what exactly is the evangelical movement? I thought Jesus told us to evangelize. When did it become a “movement”?
The MSM will televise much - if you have to see it on TV, it isn't the real deal...
No. Jesus told us to make disciples. It is not he same thing.
Mark 16:15
And he said unto them, Go you into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
There are many premillinialists who don’t buy into any of the dispensational end times scenario.
