LOL. Yeah, that’s the first time that has been predicted to happen “soon”

[ejonesie22]

WE’RE DOOMED!!!!!

or not...

[Russ]

You can LOL all you want but He’s coming and it will be sooner than later.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

The increasing frequency of these events is a clear sign that His return is very very near! Praise His Holy Name forever!

Have you called upon Jesus? He is reaching to the entire world - not just in these “disasters” but in the amazing clouds and other sights in the heavens - that have been and are being reported all over the world!

I have a presentation about that but not sure how to get it “out” to the maximum number of people who need to see that. But God is doing just fine speaking to the world through the disasters and the near disasters of today...

[T Minus Four]

Yeah, that’s the first time that has been predicted to happen “soon”

You are so right. On the other hand, sooner or later, somebody's going to be right :-)

[righttackle44]

Well, pissant, you got us. Now I don't happen to completely agree on the date of the Rapture--I don't believe that the passage he cites refers to events that affect the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ. But I do believe that the Rapture will happen. It could happen soon. The matter is really this: if this brother should be correct and the Rapture does happen soon, are you prepared for the return of the Lord? So, pissant, you got us. The Rapture may not happen soon--as far as Scripture is concerned, it could happen thousands of years in the future. It could happen very soon. But if it does happen soon, are you spiritually prepared and qualified to participate in it? Spiritually qualified means that you have confessed that Jesus Christ is Lord with your mouth and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead. If we're wrong, then you have nothing to be concerned about. But if we're right, then what?

At the least, its sooner than the last time you heard it.

These are just the beginning of things to come, Jesus told us to not let our hearts be troubles, because when we see these things, the end is not yet.
It's just the beginning of sorrows to come.
All these things must come place, they will even persecute us, and put of to death because all the nations will hate the Christians and Jews.
All these things will happen, but, the Gospel Of Jesus Christ MUST be preached to ALL nations, and when the Gospel of Jesus Christ is preached to all the nations, all the peoples, then, the end will come.
Jesus said that he will come as a robber in the night, when people are un aware of it, not paying attention, so those who are watching, KEEP WATCH !
Jesus warned us of false prophets and those who will say " Jesus Christ is in the field, or in the desert " do not believe them, for Jesus Christ will come as the lighting will flash across the sky from the east to the west.

Read Matthew 24. There will be earthquakes.....etc.

When we see these events occurring in increasing frequency it is because these are the "birth pangs" that we have been told by Jesus Christ Himself - would happen closer together in time as do the birth pangs of a woman in labor. The closer she gets to giving birth, the worse the birth pangs become and the closer together they come.

I guess you didn't read Matthew 24 or you'd know that the description of wars, earthquakes, etc., etc. are describing the everyday condition of the world. Jesus went on to say that as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be for the return of the Son of Man. He then specifically said that it will be like it was in those days, people going about their daily lives, getting married, etc., with no clue at all about what was going to happen until it crashed down upon them. He then went on to describe the signs of his immediate return: a tribulation unprecedented in human or world history, the sun and the moon growing dark, the stars falling from the sky, and the sign of his appearance in the heavens witnessed by every person living on earth. But the wars, rumors of wars, famine, earthquakes, pestilence are all just part of the usual nature of things.

Friend, with all due respect.......and sincere concern for your eternal soul; I implore you to read the following:

2Pe 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
2Pe 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
2Pe 3:11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
2Pe 3:12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
2Pe 3:13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
2Pe 3:14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
2Pe 3:15 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;
2Pe 3:16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.
2Pe 3:17 Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness.
2Pe 3:18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.

[AppyPappy]

Same as it was in 1810 and 1910

[glorgau]

Yep, the rapture has been coming later this year for the past 500 years.

[RJS1950]

It’s amazing how many times this has played out over the centuries. The Millerites went up to the mounain the mountain several times without seeing this fulfilled.

[Larry Lucido]

Well, like, a thousand years is one day, so rapture should be any “day” now. :-)
