World coming to an end in 2012? ?

The year 2012 is rumored to be the end of the world. But do not worry. Do not be scared. It’s a false rumor. It’s a hoax. I assure you that the world will not end on 2012 December 21 but it will end one day. Remember that if there is a beginning, there is an end.

I would like to share with you briefly about the Mayan calendar and Nostradamus’ prediction of the end of the world. I also would like to share with you what certainly will happen very soon as told to us by the Holy Spirit. After this certain event happened, there will be a spiritual awakening of people and earth’s inhabitants will experience peace for a long time.

Nostradamus and the book of Revelation

Nostradamus’ prophecy of when the world will end is far into the future, past about AD 3700. This is in agreement with what I heard and learned from the Holy Spirit—that there will only be about 144,000 around AD 2200, peace reigns for a thousand years while the Devil, or Satan, is chained up and locked up in the abyss till around AD 3200 (Revelation 20:1-7), and then Satan will be let loose from his prison to deceive the descendants of the elect for about 500 years (Revelation 20:7-10). After that, the end will come (Revelation 21:1).

Mayan calendar

The Mayan’s Mesoamerican Long Count calendar forms the basis for a New Age belief, first forecast by Jose Arguelles, that a cataclysm will take place on or about 2012 December 21 (Wikipedia). Mainstream Mayan scholars consider “cataclysm” or “apocalypse” as a misinterpretation for to the Mayan scribes, it literally means uncovering or revealing.

The Long Count has 360 days in a year called “Tun”. A “Tun” has 18 months or “unials” and each “unial” has 20 days. Twenty (20) Tuns is a Katun and 20 Katuns is a Baktun (144,000 days or about 400 solar years). Thirteen (13) Baktuns is a “Great Cycle” of 1,872,000 days (5,200 Tuns or about 5,125 solar years). The Great Cycle in the proleptic Gregorian calendar started on 3114 BC August 11 (day 0.0.0.0.0) and ends on 2012 December 21 (day 13.0.0.0.0) – winter solstice in the Northern Hemisphere. The Great Cycle restarts the next day (day 0.0.0.0.0). The representation of the Great Cycle of the Mayan Long Count calendar is as follows: (13 Baktuns.20 Katuns.20 Tuns.18 Uinals.20 days).

A thousand years of peace

In Revelation 20:2-7 of the Holy Bible, it tells us about a period of a thousand years of peace. Has this occurred already since the time of Jesus? Not yet. That will still come. Those that give predictions of the world’s end, such as 2012 and numerous times during the past, are pseudo-preachers. Have they talked to God directly? If so, give proofs.

Inevitable physical death

But there is something that will certainly happen—and that is our physical death. This is what we should prepare for. It may come when least expected. We do not know the day and the hour. It will come like a thief in the night. So we just have to be prepared all the time. Search for the true God and when we find Him, follow His commandments and remain in Him until our last dying breath.

Survival kit – faith in the true God

This is all that we have to do. It is faith in the true God that we can take with us when we depart from this world. If we denied Him, He will deny us also before the Father in Heaven and send us to Hell. This is very scary – to live in Hell forever. If we knew Him and loved Him and followed His commandments, then He may reward us to live with Him eternally in His kingdom in Heaven. This is the survival kit that we should have.

2012 is 20 + 12 = 32, age of Jesus when crucified

Did you know that in his/her boredom, “Thanks for reading this” theorized in Yahoo Answers, Religion & Spirituality section, that 2012 could be 20 + 12 = 32, the approximate age of Jesus when He was crucified and died? I answered that he/she is correct in his/her theory. When Jesus died, He was actually 32 solar years old, equivalent to 33 lunar years. This is found in the results of a study that I did to check if what the Holy Spirit said regarding the crucifixion of Jesus on August 17 is correct or not. Details are in http://www.geocities.com/peacecrusader888/crucifyi... Is this a sign that God is warning us of the impending calamity around 2012, like the end of the Mayan’s calendar cycle? But I repeat, 2012 is not the end of the world yet.

The 144,000 marked good people

The Holy Spirit also told us that beings from another planet will take only the marked good people out of this world. I asked Him if it’s a million. He said much less than that. Then I asked if the number is the one mentioned in Revelation and He affirmed it. A few weeks ago this year, 2008, as I was reading Revelation, I came across Revelation 14:3 to wit (King James Version): “And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.” “Redeemed from the earth” means saved from the earth. And there were 144,000 of them. This must be what the Holy Spirit was referring to several years ago.

Advice of the Holy Spirit

His advice to all: leave their wicked way of life and change their way of thinking. We should come back to the true God before it’s too late. (I read in Isaiah 55:7 this message, to wit (KJV): “Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.”) Be good then so that we may be considered to be among the 144,000 who will be saved, and later will restart and repopulate this world. The Holy Spirit told us to tell people about this prophecy even though they accuse us as being out of our minds, crazy or lunatics. He assured us that this will happen, similar to Noah’s prophecy of the Great Flood which took a hundred years before it was fulfilled. The ark was the vessel used to save Noah and his family and the animals. This time, another kind of vessel will be used to save the elect.

World War III to start at Spratly Islands

What is also certain to happen very soon (in about 2012 or earlier) is World War III and this is a nuclear war. This “calamitous war” (as Nostradamus called it) will start from the Philippines, at Spratly Islands in particular. The Spratly Islands lie on the southeast part of the South China Sea mostly near the coast of the Philippines. The Holy Spirit told us that the Philippines is the wick of a gas lamp. Once the wick is lit, it will be on and aglow. He told us about this prophecy about two decades ago. He said that the troubles in the Philippines will spread to the whole world until mankind is almost annihilated and a few will remain. Spratly Islands are being claimed wholly by China, Taiwan and Vietnam; and partly by Malaysia, Brunei and the Philippines. The area is considered a tinderbox, a flash point. It is very rich in oil and gas resources, estimated to be more than the reserve of Kuwait. The high price of oil may trigger the grabbing of these islands and start the war.

Certainty of WW III

Four independent prophecies point to the certainty that this will happen. These are Nostradamus’ prophecies to happen around this time (quatrains 6:24 and 2:62) , the 56th Chinese prophecy of Tui Bei Tu (the past 55 prophecies have already been fulfilled) found at http://www.alexchiu.com/philosophy/superichingtuay... and Wikipedia, Revelation 9:18 of the Holy Bible, and those that the Holy Spirit revealed to us. If you are interested in the details about these prophecies, please send me your request via email.

Spiritual awakening after the war

After the calamitous war, we will have a new age, a spiritual awakening or enlightenment, and peace will reign for a long time in this world. The population would have been reduced by a third and there will be much arable land that will be available. People will be living in planned cities and communities. Would you like to live in a city where the land is free and you are guaranteed possession of the land for 50 years, renewable, and which you can bequeath to an heir?

Come back to the true God now

The Holy Spirit has given His prophecies and these are what will happen. Be rest assured then that the world will not end yet. But please, heed what He advises us to do—to change our wicked way of life and change our wrong beliefs. Come back to the true God now before it’s too late. There a lot of lessons to study.

The decision to believe rests upon you

I am just sharing with you what I heard and learned from the Holy Spirit. The decision to believe Him or not depends upon yourself. I am not forcing anyone to believe in what I share. It is not my responsibility to save you or anyone, but the person’s. He is the engineer of the house that he is building.

Reassurance of the true God that He will save us

Isaiah 35:4 (KJV) states: “Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompense; he will come and save you.”

The Mayan calendar had loads of concepts for sets or cycles of years, that fitted into even bigger sets, that fitted into bigger sets. It's like we have decades, years, centuries and millenia and so forth. The also had units that did not fit completely into others, such as we have weeks and months. Where these units met (by their smallest common multiples), it defined a new type of cycle. It's like we have a seven year cycle, which determines when a year will start on a Monday.

The biggest set or cycle will come to an end in December 2012. If the Maya civilisation still existed, it simply means they would have had to invent a new name for the bigger cycle into which everything fitted. That is "the deal" with 2012. There is no evidence that even the Mayas attached any other signifficance to this date.

If you subscribe to the belief that the world is going to end at that date, you'll also have to believe that the world actually started in 11 August 3114 BC, the absolute starting date of their calendar. The Mayans were an advanced people, but human nevertheless. The were advanced in science, not mysticism or fortunte telling (though they probably tried their hand in it). Their knowledge allowed them to predict eclipses, solstices, and the cycles of the planets. But for instance, they could not foretell and fend off the Spanish invasion, nor even earlier invasions from other Meso-American civilisations at the time.

Okay, here is a real answer from a professional astronomer. No, the world is NOT going to end in 2012, or at any time over the next several billion years. Some people are saying it because they have accepted the lies and fabrications of other people who do know better, but are busy selling garbage books and TV shows.

The world shifts and twists and changes, each earthquake and volcano adds and detracts from its mass and balance. I think that it is changing, for better or worse, who is to say? Maybe bad for humans, fish, mammals? It was certainly bad when the dinosaurs were eradicated from existence when the asteroid hit some 65 million years ago. But that opened the door for mammals. The end of the line for man? Possible. Anything is possible I suppose. But we are being kind of big headed to think we can destroy a planet. The earth will be here long after man has destroyed himself. As George Carlin once said, the earth will shake us off like a bad case of the fleas. Just my opinion.

OMG! that bull pucky, It;s the end of the Mayan callender. Think of it this way....your being attacked you know your village is being burning and your people are dieing and your the one making the callender, Do you have time to stand around to finish it NO, lol If I knew that the end of my race was coming to an end I wouldn't wait around like a bumb *** just to finnish my duty and die, I;d run...so all that you heard about the end of the world is bull pucky, If it were true then why work, why go to school, why do anything, leave enjoy what you've made. before the end. I would. see the world before it ends, If that were true then everybody wouldn't be working they'd be haven fun till the end...don't let it bother you.

There's always going to be a cult group who believes the world is coming to an end with an arbitrary date. No one can foresee the future. Rather than focusing on what they say, live life every day the best you can. Life for us is already short and there's no point worrying about what speculators who are at best cookie people who wants to terrorize others into believing what they "think" they know.

someone said you cant tell the future in a earlier answer...this is false, and it has been proven that the future can be told..indian astrology, palmistry, numerology...perhaps sketchy to some, but more than a coincidental amount of information comes true...i believe that the world "ending" in 2012 is a prediction based on these kinds of astrological, or numerical calculations and could very well be true...although, this could be more of a word for words if u know what i mean...perhaps in 2012 world war 3 will officially start and will start the slow declination of the population "ending" the world in anarchy...or maybe the world "ending" is paraphrasing the end of the worlds freedom...for example, its a common conspiracy theory that all of europe will unite under one name and one currency, and that american, canada, and mexico are also planning the same thing...then eventually europe and north american will merge...and in this way they can more easily control their population taking away our freedoms and turning us into "slaves" of sorts....perhaps 2012 is the mark of the beginning of this day....just to let everyone know im not a conspiracy theorist, but i do believe in predictions, these are just theories to what could happen on this day...on a side note i dont believe the world could ever come to an end, as in the planet exploding or anything ridiculous like that...but i do believe its possible and actually probable that one day life on earth will cease to exist, though im doubting that this drastic of an outcome will happen anytime soon

By early in July 2008 questions about 2012 had been asked more than 10,000 times. I have given a version of this answer more than 140 times. See also -

This stuff is all lies and fraud to get people buying faked up books, videos, watching nonsense shows on TV and directing traffic to fraudulent websites.

Pole shifts - no, not a chance. The Earth’s axis of rotation is stabilised by the Moon’s gravity.

Magnetic poles flip - no, they will just keep moving as usual. They are likely to change ends at some time in the geologically near future but it will take hundreds to thousands of years to happen. Meanwhile, the magnetic field will not disappear, but it will probably get more complex.

Mayan calendar - Their "long count" calendars ends in 2012. It is just a count of days from their legendary past and comes to an end because they had difficulty expressing large numbers. There is no prediction attached to this and even if there was, it would be astrology and that has been disproved so many times that it's not worth any more words.

Solar maximum - expected in late 2011, not 2012 and it happens every 11 or so years anyway.

Predicted planetary “alignments” are completely false. The positions of the planets will be about as far from an "alignment" as you can imagine. The next "alignment" of the major planets is expected sometime after the Sun burns out. Even if it did happen the question would arise "So what?" Where is the physical connection between Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn etc?

Gravity? Like to calculate how strong the gravitational effects of Mars, Jupiter and Saturn is on Earth? Multiply the masses of the planets together, divide by the square of the distance between them and then multiply by the gravitational constant, which is a rather small number. Now add them all together and you still don't have a hill of beans.

Newton knew how to do this 300 years ago, but our planetary alignment freaks never care to do the calculation because the result would make them look as silly as they are.

Venus will transit the Sun in June 2012, just as it did in 2004 and on a regular cycle before that. No noticeable effect then except on astronomers, some of whom will take measurements, no expected effect this next time.

Planet X / black hole / brown dwarf / wandering planet - No. It was predicted for 2003 by a woman who claimed telepathic contact with aliens. No sign of it then and still no sign of it. If this big nasty exists it must be quite close by now and visible with a fairly ordinary astronomical telescope. Where is it? The assumption that it can only be seen from the southern hemisphere and therefore astronomers don’t see it is nonsense, there are many large optical and some radio astronomical telescopes in Chile and Australia.

Nibiru was originally a separate scare and depends on some faked-up scholarship by a fraud called Z. Sitchin. He claimed to be able to read cuneiform, a script used by old Mesopotamians like Babylonians among others. He could not but others can. He claimed that some old texts talked of a planet with a 3600 year orbit that passed close to Earth. This planet was inhabited by aliens who landed on Earth to enslave people into producing gold for them.

In fact Nibiru is an old Mesopotamian name for the planet Jupiter, which will be staying right in its accustomed orbit, thank you very much. Sitchin disagreed with the "Planet X" woman.

25,800 year cycles. This is called "precession of the equinoxes" and was discovered a bit more than 2100 years ago. It has been happening since the Earth formed billions of years ago and will not stop, start or change direction in 2012. There is no particular significance in the direction the poles of rotation happen to be pointing at present or in 2012.

The Bible codes were disproved within months of the first book coming out, similar coded messages can be found in any random book or even newspapers using the same "anything goes" methods faked up by the author, Michael Drosnin. He used the codes to predict a nuclear war starting in 1997. Oops.

Revelation - nobody ever made sense of those febrile maunderings, the evidence for that is that there are so many different interpretations. It has been used to predict the end on dozens of dates from the year 500AD right up to April 2008.

Nostradamus never predicted anything accurately and he may not have intended to. Many editions of his quatrains contain faked verses inserted long after he died.

Galactic central plane - we are near it, so astronomers say, but we have always been near it, though nobody actually knows exactly where it is. No exact "alignment" is possible because of the angle of the ecliptic to that of the galactic central plane. A rough “alignment” of Sun, Earth and the galactic centre happens twice every year and nothing happens. Even if there was an exact “alignment”, the question would be "So what?"

Photon belt - this one is almost the silliest of the lot. The Earth was expected to enter this region in 1997 with remarkable effects. Oops. The “photon belt” is also said to be around the "7 Sisters". Our solar system is heading away from them, not towards them. It does not exist anyway.

This is all fake scholarship, pseudo-science, lies, superstition and abject delusion.
