End Times? One thing is for sure, it is closer than it has ever been ping!!!
SOME REASONS IN AND FOR THE END!
1960s
The 1960s brought change. The changes affected education, values, lifestyles, laws, and entertainment. Many of the revolutionary ideas which began in the sixties and are continuing to evolve today. Also many of those running our country today are counted from the Swinging Sixties
More and more women in the 1960s were being educated at
universities and more were beginning careers. Womans protest movements began in the 1960s asking for equal rights for women.
And those equal rights have had abortion as part of those woman’s rights.
Those rights added up from 292 abortions in the United States in 1960 to 1,212,350 in 2008 from stats by Wm. Robert Johnston.1
Ask the aborted if they had equal rights?
As St Paul states: If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 1 Corinthians 13:1-13. Love is the answer. Todays families lack love and many of those families are clanging cymbals.
We in Pennsylvania and Mifflin-Juniata Counties are numbered
among the lowest in divorce and abortion. Our families tend to stay together and these families believe Sirac 2-1-16,
How blessed is the husband of a really good wife; the number of his days will be doubled and 16 Like the sun rising over the mountains of the Lord, such is the beauty of a good wife in a well-run house
Men and women not men with men!
They also believe:
Genesis - Chapter 1-27-28
1 -26 God said, ‘Let us make man in our own image, in the likeness of ourselves, and let them be masters of the fish of the sea, the birds of heaven, the cattle, all the wild animals and all the creatures that creep along the ground.’
1-27 God created man in the image of himself, in the image of God he created him, male and female he created them.
1-28 God blessed them, saying to them, ‘Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth and subdue it. Be masters of the fish of the sea, the birds of heaven and all the living creatures that move on earth.’
In the beginning God created heaven and earth. Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her Children can’t when aborted!!
If the current politicos are upset then what must the Black Community be? According to the Guttmacher Institute 69% among blacks abort their babies. The Presidents supported
Planned Parenthoods history has Margaret Sanger saying about her speech to the Klu Klutz Klan: “I accepted an invitation to talk to the women’s branch of the Ku Klux Klan...I saw through the door dim figures parading with banners and illuminated crosses...I was escorted to the platform, was introduced, and began to speak...In the end, through simple illustrations I believed I had accomplished my purpose. A dozen invitations to speak to similar groups were proffered.”
(Margaret Sanger: An Autobiography, P.366)
1) Her other statements include We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The
most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We dont want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population. and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.
2) Eugenic sterilization is an urgent need
We must prevent multiplication of this bad stock.
3) Our failure to segregate morons who are increasing and multiplying
demonstrates our foolhardy and extravagant sentimentalism
[Philanthropists] encourage the healthier and more normal sections of the world to shoulder the
burden of unthinking and indiscriminate fecundity of others; which brings with it, as I think the reader must agree, a dead weight of human waste. Instead of decreasing
and aiming to eliminate the stocks that are most detrimental to the future of the race and the world, it tends to render them to a menacing degree dominant
We are paying for, and even submitting to, the dictates of an ever-increasing, unceasingly spawning class of human beings who never should have been born at all.
1. Negroes and Southern Europeans are mentally inferior to native born
Americans
2. 3. More children from the fit, less from the unfit.
3. 4.
apply a stern and rigid policy of sterilization and segregation to that grade of population whose progeny is already tainted, or whose inheritance is such that objectionable traits may be transmitted tooffspring.
Year 2013 media headlines told the plight of American society today:
In 2012, Los Angeles reported 298 homicides. There are an alarming number of deaths in US jails. Gun rampage in southern Louisiana leaves four dead including shooter.
Newtown shooting report to be released by Connecticut state police. LAX shooting suspect pleads not guilty on 11 counts Colorado student injured in school shooting dies.
Violent crime rises for second consecutive year. Found that 26 of every 1,000 people
I just wrote the following on another thread about Muslims, the Middle East and Israel, and about is living “at the end” of the “last days” ... at which time Jesus, the Messiah of Israel, returns and goes to WAR. with all who oppose him on earth, and sets up his earthly Kingdom, ruling over all the nations of the world, from Jerusalem. The person I was responding to didn’t seem to think we could possibly know whether we were actually in that time period at which time Jesus returns.

The bias here is not accepting what God does say about the situation. We are told that Israel will be regathered this one more time, in the land. Israel is in the process right now of regathering in the land, while the Muslims are intent on pushing them out of the land. They see their presence there as a slap in the face to their false god, Allah. It puts the lie to their false religion to have Israel in the land. Of course, thats one purpose of God regathering them back to the land - to put the lie to their false religion.
With Muslims numbers and power in that region and their extreme animosity to Israels existence in this area of overwhelming Muslim population and domination - Israel cannot survive in normal human terms - in the long-range, more than a few decades, if even that long.
The USA has been a protector and backer of Israel being in the land for quite a while now and that balances the power there, against the Muslims. Its clear now that the support for Israel is waning in the USA, overall and politically. You can even see that here on this forum. Those types who want the USA to back out of having Israels back and just let Israel take care of itself, on its own.
It will come to the point where the USA no longer has Israels back, and Israel will not be able to hold off the hoards of Muslims, who are right there in their own lands, surrounding Israel. Israel would be defeated and run off the land, in normal human terms.
HOWEVER, God makes it clear that He will intervene on Israels behalf and that Israel will not be run off another time and regathered back the fifth time around, back to the land or the sixth time around, or some infinite time around. God regathers them back into the land this time and He protects them supernaturally, in a way that no one else or any nation or even themselves can do ... so that the whole world recognizes that it is God and God alone who fights on Israels behalf (and we havent seen that yet).
This intent of the Muslims to rid the land of Israel wont go on for another fifty years or 100 years, thus putting off the hand of God in protecting Israel. Its this very thing of the impending demise of Israel which will drive the people to call out to the Messiah of Israel to save them - and save them He does, just like God says He will.
You are NOW in the time of the end (i.e., that particular time period of the Messiahs second coming) and so ... you should recognize the soon coming of the Messiah of Israel, just like He said the people of his time before, were supposed to have recognized his coming them (almost two thousand years ago). He said they should have recognized the time. You should recognize the time now.
The vast majority of people who are on this earth will be the ones living through this time of His return - whether you or I individually are still here or not (as any individual one of us can die tonight in his or her sleep, or whatever else may happen).
We are told to recognize that time of his coming just like you would read the weather and recognize that a storm is coming (you know that storm isnt a thousand years away, but is right around the corner).
If you live long enough, and you dont get killed in the process of the things to come you will be seeing the return of the Messiah of Israel to this earth!
Maranatha!

Live the most fulfilled and fulling life you can, and it doesn’t matter. No man can know when it will arrive.
We are now standing in the face of the greatest historical confrontation humanity has gone through. I do not think that wide circles of American society or wide circles of the Christian community realize this fully. We are now facing the final confrontation between the Church and the anti-Church, of the Gospel versus the anti-Gospel.
This is from same man who kissed the Koran and asked St John the Baptist to protect the diabolical sect Islam.
He's right though: We are facing the final confrontation between the Church and the anti-Church except the anti-Church is currently within the walls of the post Vatican II Church.
I think there is an end time and the signs tell us we are getting into it but no one except God knows when it will be or how long it will last.
There are any number of evils throughout history, slavery for one, where the victims could have asked the same thing. I don't think blacks who were being lynched for the crime (gasp!) fighting against being shoveled to the back of the bus in the 40s and 50s thought the times they lived in were so righteous, either.
These are not necessarily signs of the "End Times", but it could mean the end of Western civilization if we choose to embrace it. Evil is not just something that started a generation or two ago, but is a perpetual sign of our fallen nature. OTOH, the Church is growing in Russia and China even under oppressive circumstances. If our Western civilization chooses homosexuality, porn, and abortion over living in God's Kingdom, there will be others to take our place.
