    Biblical end times.......it has all been prophesied

  • 1 decade ago

    A very good question, and yet one that you may not want to know the answer to. It is in the Scriptures that these things are foretold. In one account the disciples ask Jesus how they will know the time of the end. Jesus tells them that they will look to the sky and see dark clouds and know that a storm is coming, so it is with the end of time. The rise in catastrophic occurrences and awakening of the understanding of man kind is no accident. Matthew 24 is a good reference: Verse3 -signs of the end, verse 6 wars and rumors of wars, verse 7 famine, pestilences (diseases) and earth quakes in unusual and many places. verse 8 beginning of sorrows, verse 11 rise of false prophets, verse 15 rise of the anti Christ, verse 24 false Christs. There are accounts of this conversation in the other gospel accounts as well as references in many other books of the bible. a good reference if you do not own a bible are the on-line bible sites. I use crosswalk.com. It gives you the option to choose the version of the bible you understand best, probably the Good news or New American Standard will help. There is a purpose in this question, Seek and you will find. No man will be able to turn back the events that are already in motion. The only hope is in securing a place for your self in heaven. Read the book of Romans or the gospel of John and ask the questions they will raise for you.

    i agree that global warming is a problem, but keep in mind that we've only really been recording things like weather patterns, volcanic eruptions, etc...for a hundred years for so. i think it's unreasonable to assume that these things have never happened before. what about vesuvius? krakatoa? there is archaeoligical evidence of tsunamis occuring every few thousand years in the united states. all we can do is make sure we take care of the world by polluting it as little as possible, and let the world do what it's been doing for millions of years.

    It is the end times. Places that have never had earthquakes will experience them. Anything can happen at any time, prepared or not. I do believe we will be seeing Christ's return to this earth, hopefully very soon. If things get worse, we really will be in a lot of trouble.
