Your entire theology rests on Apocalypse.

Mine rests in Christ every moment. I don’t fear the end. I’ve been close to my own death. Catholics know of the four last things, Death, Judgment, Heaven, and Hell.

I know of no Catholic who dwells on the end times. Living every day in Christ is enough for me. He will come.

Our liturgy states: Christ has died. Christ is risen. Christ will come again.

I know Scripture and I know the Apocalypse.

Knowing means keeping it in mind, but living in Christ means the justice of the day.

What will happen to you, Quix, when the Apocalypse does not happen this year, next in two or twenty decades?

Do you as I do look to Christ coming but live for His Reign by doing what I must to live Christ? Will you Doubt? Set the date another year or ten or twenty?

He told us to watch but not to dwell. You have created an entire theology based on dwelling.

I trust in Jesus. My Jesus I trust in You. ~ St. Faustina.

What happens will happen in Christ.

Your assumptions about me, as usual,

are more than a little flawed, if not off the wall.

Yeah, Biblical prophecy and thereby the end times has been a hobby fascination since Jr High.

Not a bad choice . . . given the era we live in post Israel becoming a Nation again in a day as Biblically predicted.
