Is is really The End?

[Christ_empowered]

I'm a recent convert to Christianity. I was raised a liberal Presbyterian. The whole "last days" thing wasn't a big part of my upbringing.

Now, that's all changing. The more I read the Bible and talk with other believers, the more I get the sense that something is happening. Technology is growing by leaps and bounds, economies are collapsing, morals are falling apart; it all seems to indicate that The End is nigh.

But then I think...haven't people always been immoral and self-obsessed? Haven't we always had godless people running governments and economies? Am I *really* seeing things clearly when I think "this is The End," or is it some sort of psychological reaction, like a wish for things to be ended before they get even worse?

Yes we have always had evil. But now with our current technology we have the ability to cause greater strife and destruction with our evil. As the saying goes with an increace of knowledge comes and increace in sorrows.

Ecclesiasties 1
18 For in much wisdom is much grief, And he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.

And I believe things are going to get much much worse.

As I've said before....the telling sign of the end will be when the world government is completely overt. i.e. when all the nations of the Earth have willingly given up their Sovereignty to the U.N.......it will be officially announced.

The endtimes will begin "1 hour" after this. Thats my opinion.

When the world finally realises they are caught in a global tyranny....the AC will present himself as the answer.

OK: Give us some more of your opinion if you will? The UN is a court system that will try in their world court Real Christians who will not put them (UN) before God. Is that the way that you see it?? If that is so, how long would it take for Matt. 24:14 to finish the Lords work by satalite in a world court? And do you think that folks would find that of interest? Acts 3:19 seems also to promise a repeat of Joel 2 + Acts 2:17. What'cha think?

What do I think? I think that yet again, as I've seen so many other people communicate to you.....your post makes little sense and I dont understand what point you are trying to make or how the scripture you reference is relevant.
