Disagree with half of the criticism of the article. I read Lindsey's book in the 70s and thought it was an interesting take on trying to pull Biblical references together and try to show they are being played out in the modern world. Did I think Lindsey's predictions would come to pass in his time frame, no. But I don't think he made a mockery of Christianity either. He came across as a zealous guy trying to fit Biblical prophecy into his modern time. He's human he will make mistakes.

By the way if you don't think the European Union is the possible reconstitution of the Roman Empire then you aren't thinking hard enough. If you can't see how the forces of evil could take it over and use it for end time purposes then you just don't want to look at how modern circumstances may fit.

Do I think we are in the end times? 1% chance yes, 99% chance another millennium will pass before things start lining up.

Unless Iran goes nuclear then all bets are off.

The major attack on Lindsey is the timing.

The reason for the events is probably the most important and the proper response to the events is important but I don’t remember much of the book spent on that, but it may have.

Eyes tend to go to the wrong part of prophecy..............

I had this very discussion with a good friend not long ago who I think is far more learned than I am in the Bible. I said I think we're living in the end times. His reponse was that yes, we were living in the end times however it would get a whole lot worse than the time we live in, before the Rature happens.

Thinking back on the conversation he and I had, I think he's right. That frankly, scares the h*ll out of me.
