Yes...That is what I mean..:)
Gosh, I would think that something of that significance would need to be a public event. But maybe a secret agreement would be possible, or maybe something that is reported but not recognized for what it is. Good question.
When I was a young Christian in the 1970’s I got caught up in all of those end-time books lining the bibles book stores shelves. The most notable was Hal Lindseys, The Late Great Planet Earth.
Although they were fascinating reading for a young Christian, so much of it seemed too far fetched to believe that it could happen in my life time. 150, 200 years out maybe, but not in my life time.
Boy has times changed, and my feelings about when these events could happen.
CASHLESS SOCIETY?
In the 1970’s the thought of using a debit card almost anyplace, including vending machines and parking lots seems just too far out. Yea, someday way off into the future. Well today I go weeks without paper money or coin. I can probably can go without it all together, if it wasn’t for the coffee kitty at work.
ONE WORLD LEADER?
This was always a great mystery. How could one man become so popular so fast as to set him self up as God in a short 3 ½ years. Mystery no more. I am not saying Obama is the Antichrist, but his coming from nowhere in such a short time to become a Godhead among his Koolaid drinking followers that spread beyond our borders, is just too strange. It shows you how fast the real Antichrist can enter the World Stage.
WORLD GOVERNMENT?
Hard to fathom in the 1970’s. Now, its something even the main stream media is picking up on. And the World Wide Web, not something Hal Lindsey even dreamed of, now makes a World Government an easier thing to accomplish.
THE ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION?
The Temple would have to be rebuilt, right? Well there is serious talk of it now. News story from 5/26/09 Raad Salah: Netanyahu will Try to Rebuild the Jewish Temple http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/131578
