Billy Graham was asked how long it would be before the Second Coming. He said, “Not as long as it used to be.”

And that is all anyone knows.

[Elsie]

That was the key...People mock the idea of the 2nd Coming in our lifetime making statements like, 'people have been predicting this event for 2000 years'...

Matthew 24:39
...and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.

[Elsie]

And what an astonisdhing time to be alive!

How astonishing!

To be alive!!!

Ain't Evolution WONDERFUL!!?

[Elsie]

The full ramifications of this are not yet known, but as we process this news in the coming days, I believe we need to keep our focus in the right place.

Only to the abysmally ignorant!

Genesis 18:17
Then the Lord said, “Shall I hide from Abraham what I am about to do?

[Elsie]

yes, that seems to be a major theme, with even the Vatican making arrangements for some sort of 'alien' arrival.

Basher!

HATER!!!

Oh!

Wait!!!

Never mind....

Thanks for posting this video. I am familiar with Dr. Ed Hindson and have heard him interviewed on Jan Markell's "Understanding the Times" radio program.

I will watch the entire video today (I listened to the first 10 minutes).

I also feel we are accelerating towards the storm, and almost every day I can feel the speed increasing.

There are so many final signs, but some that I cannot ignore are these:

1. A great Falling Away of believers, combined with increased evil and immorality in the world

2. A societal and global hatred for Jews and Christians with growing persecution

3. The impending economic and financial collapse (including the signs in Greece, China, and the US)

4. The bizarre behavior, statements, and heresy of Pope Francis, and his call for New World Order

5. The impending threat of nuclear war, now that Iran has been empowered by the Obama/Kerry traitors

6. The betrayal of Israel, and the threats against her that bring us closer to the Psalm 83 and/or Gog-Magog wars of Ezekiel 38 and 39

7. The signs on earth (increased earthquakes, droughts, super storms, unexplained mass animal deaths), and in the heavens (blood moons on Jewish Feast days)

8. The strange statements from the scientists (at CERN and other research facilities), who constantly speak of "opening doors", "becoming gods", and "new dimensions."

9. The seemingly unstoppable nature of Obama's evil schemes, which leads me to conclude he is possessed by a demon or Satan himself, and the evidence that he has paved the way for the Antichrist

10. The fulfillment of 2 Timothy 3:1-5 throughout our nation and the entire world, with terrifying speed

[Elsie]

Sounds about right!

Didn't you people learn ANYTHING

from the smoke of SODOM?

Physicist Richard Seed: We Will Become Gods

the birth pangs become closer and closer together...

1 Thessalonians 5:2-4

2 For you yourselves know full well that the day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night. 3 While they are saying, "Peace and safety!" then destruction will come upon them suddenly like labor pains upon a woman with child, and they will not escape. 4 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day would overtake you like a thief;

[Elsie]

Still going before Congress with his ideas...

[Arthur McGowan]

Thank you.

I don’t want to sound arrogant but this is nonsense.
Rome destroyed Jerusalem in 72 AD
The Black Death in 1346-1353 and Jews were blamed for it.
Holocaust in Poland during WW2

All these historical events directly effected Israel and the Jewish People and NONE of them triggered the “Rapture” or “The Second Coming”

All these historical events directly effected Israel and the Jewish People and NONE of them triggered the “Rapture” or “The Second Coming”

I am scratching my head in an attempt to discover your rationale or reasoning for such a statement.

Are you saying that because certain past historical events did not immediately lead to the implementation of God's final plan of justice and salvation, then therefore God is not sovereign to implement his plan now?

If so (and that is what I read from you), then that sounds a lot like what Peter warned against:

They will say, "Where is this 'coming' he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation. 2 Peter 3:4

Or are you implying that Christ did not implore us to watch, listen, and to recognize the signs of the times?

And in the morning, ‘It will be stormy today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.

Matthew 16:3

In Matthew, Christ said (3 times) that His return would be when the majority of His followers (and also unbelievers) would not watching for His return.

“Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come” (Matt. 24:42).

“Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh” (Matt. 24:44).

“Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh” (Matt. 25:13).

Even among most self-professing Christians today, I see a weariness and a disbelief that Christ is actually going to do what He said He would do.

Moreover, the signs of today are manifest that He is coming soon: lawlessness, immorality on a vast scale, hatred of the Jews, threats against Israel, rumblings of world war, signs of economic collapse, calls for a global government, demands for a global currency, movement towards a cashless society, persecution and martyrdom of Christians, Israel back in her land after 2,000 years of exile, Christ's warning of a generation and the fig tree, the fulfillment of Daniel's prediction of knowledge explosion and mass transportation in during the last days, and on and on...

I see many heads in the sand folks. Some just are not ready for Christ's return, so they push the thought out of their minds. Some want to continue to experience whatever good life they believe they have here on earth in a vain hope that the Lord tarries His plan, and some are more caught up in worldly affairs (their money, their homes, their vacations, etc) than in God's affairs.

One of the things Jesus specified to the four attending the Olivet Discourse was that there would be a Temple, a Jewish Temple into which the lawless one would go and proclaim himself to be god in an abomination that makes desolate. Since 70 AD there has not been a Temple on Temple Mount and Israel was not yet back in the Land. So regardless of the other complaints, the single most telling sign of the end times was the re-establishment of Israel as a nation in the land.

If you're interested in sorting out the meanings of the Discourses Jesus gave on End Times, compare and contrast the Luke 21 teaching in the Temple, with the Olivet Discourse given that same evening.

The Rapture is a Church event. it ends the Church Age wherein there is no distinction between Jew and Gentile in the salvation and indwelling Holy Spirit. During the Tribulation, after the Church is taken out of the way, there is a definite message of evangelization being done by Jews, specifically, as 144,000 Jewish evangelists are sealed for the job.

The time of the Tribulation, divided into two parts of 3 1/2 years each, we see the seventieth week of Daniel's prophecy for Israel being fulfilled. There is no mention of 'the Church' in that regard, only what Daniel was told by the Angel as the finally dealing with sin regarding Israel. For the precise prophecy, see chapter 9 of Daniel, OT.

The Church Age has been a pause between the 69th week and the seventieth week of Daniel's prophecy. The pause began when Messiah was cut off in crucifixtion. The stark nature of the events caused Jewish scholars to contemplate there were two Messiah's prophesied, one from the line of Joseph and one fromt he line of David. They did not see that Messiah is fulfilling two roles, both the lamb of God and the Lion of the Tribe of Judah. He came and was curt off in 33 AD. He will come again at the end of the Tribulation as the Conquering King.

Jesus taught the Disciples in the Upper Room Discourse portion found in John 14 that He was going away to prepare a place for them and that He would come to take them THERE to be with Him. He will come in the Air and take His own to that place 'THERE' in the Father's House. But He will come back tot eh planet surface after the Great Tribulation period, and the Revelation indicates He will bring The Bride and wedding guests with Him as an great army from Heaven.

"35 for it will come upon all those who dwell on the face of all the earth. 36 "But keep on the alert at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are about to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man." [Jesus speaking in the Temple Discourse, hinting at the Rapture escape and the Bema Seat in Heaven. Luke 21:35&36]
