Biden and Trump setting the stage; in biblical ignorance for the Day of the Lord, pro and con;
A great interview!

What is it with Protestants and this obsession with the end of the world.
He told us not to try and predict the end. That’s his responsibility. We just won’t know and for good reasons.
Build the kingdom of God. Do his will. Believe and trust.
Don’t waste your time with this drivel.
“What is it with Protestants and this obsession with the end of the world.”
I think that the people who came up with climate change borrowed that whole thing by noticing how end timers cling, over the generations, to a delusion.
Now, I believe the Bible, but I see your point of view. The end time has become a longer period of time than the age it was supposed to be the mere end of.
God bless you brother

Not quite correct. Jesus told us what to watch for and to be ready. Grifters tried to predict the actual date for monetary gain. True Christians see which way the world is going and prepare for that day.
I think the final religion is an amalgam of Islam and Catholicism, with the emphasis on Islam.
We’re told to pay attention.
Maranatha!

You epitomize the โstrong delusionโ that will overtake the world and lead to the rapture!
More self-flagellating tripe from the fisherman.
To be fair, this tendency goes way back even before the protestants. Aztecs believed the end of the world would happen if they didn’t have sacrifices, the ancient Maya calendar went out awhile back. ect.
There are plenty of Christians throughout the millennia that formed doomsday predictions. But not just Christians show this tendency.
.

I think it helps to get your mind out of mans time and try to understand God's time.
"But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day." - 2 Peter 3
What Bible are you reading? That is not what he said.
I never realized there were so many atheists in free republic. It is either that or they are biblically illiterate.
Lol....
Religions aren’t Gods way..love is...
Islam is fake, death cult, Christianity tries to act like the arbiter between you and God..
Hats left is us individually..
Wrote a hard rocking song about realizing no one here knows agod at all..

Simple grift.
I’m sure in the back office they refer to it as “getting the message out,” and it is just a coincidence they track the same metrics as all the other influence peddlers. The most important of which will be tying sales to campaigns. Nothing converts dollars (and votes) quite like fear (and being superior to others).
Thanks for posting. The hour is getting late. Jesus commanded us to keep watch and to pray always.
“Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.” - Luke 21:36
“Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.” - Matthew 24:42-44
“Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is. It is like a man going to a far country, who left his house and gave authority to his servants, and to each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch. Watch therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is comingโin the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the morningโ lest, coming suddenly, he find you sleeping. And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!โ - Mark 13:33-37
“Because you have kept My command to persevere, I will also keep you from the hour of testing that is about to come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.” - Revelation 3:10
Around here, now even the sock puppets have sock puppets,
Ignore the trolls, they’re neither illiterate nor atheists,
Read carefully, these are believers doing the mocking:
“that ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken beforehand by the holy prophets and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior, knowing this first: that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts and saying, โWhere is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.โ - 2 Peter 3:2-4
The Church of Laodicea is arriving on schedule for the last days as prophesied:
“Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.” - Revelation 3:17-18
I'll tell you why. They're tired. Tired of the pain of living in a fallen world with all its dangers, troubles, and sicknesses, tired of burying all their loved ones. They believe J*sus will be a literal messianic king, not a "spiritual" or "social" one. They look forward to him ruling the world (literally) from (literal) Jerusalem in a fully restored world with no more pain, death, sickness, or sorrow.
You on the other hand claim the messianic advent was 2000 years ago. You claim the world has already been redeemed and the kingdom is right now. Yet nothing has changed. Evil still exists. False religions still exist. Death still exists. If this is your "kingdom of G-d" it is a great disappointment.
What is the "second coming" to you? Doomsday. The "final judgment." The destruction of the material world by fire. The "dies iraea(sp?)." No wonder you prefer to postpone the "second coming" for trillions of years. Better to continue living in this life, walking a tightrope over the yawning maw of hell, than see the horrible "second coming."
That is, of course, unless you believe in your own "millennium" under the Great Catholic Monarch, the Emperor of the Last Days, the Restored House of Bourbon, the kingdom of Mary, or what not.
To prefer that this fallen and painful state of the world continue indefinitely rather than face the "return" of your "messiah" says a lot about you.
