Meh. People have been setting dates and saying Christ is coming for centuries. I have no doubt He’ll be returning soon, but He also said that the only sign of His return we would have is the same sign given to Noah.

36 “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. 37 But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

Matthew 24:36-39 (NKJV)

I seriously doubt Christ would telegraph His return with something like the death of Ariel Sharon. That seems a bit “out there” to me.

And none of it meant anything before Israel became a nation.

Well, not exactly.

On the other hand, there are those who believe that Jesus will go to almost any length to bring people to Him for salvation before it's too late.

Do you sense that something is “off” about that video from ppsimmons? I do. See my earlier post, let me know what you think.

“after Sharon’s death” could mean 100 years after. We still don’t know the day or the hour.
