IS THE END OF THE WORLD NEAR

if what you say is of a truth than Jesus would not have told us what to watch for as signs for the end of times....

Watching for the signs is fine. But making a multi-million dollar industry out of bogus theology is just scare mongering. (Remember Y2K ?) Jesus ALSO said that no one knows the day or the hour, and His two greatest commandments are to love God and neighbor.

All I am saying is, we should be Christlike and help our fellow man, and let the end come when it comes. Better to volunteer for two hours in a soup kitchen helping the needy than to waste two hours watching "Left Behind" nonsense.

Spot on CC that left behind series is as you say "a money maker" it has nothing to do with his second coming. A very clever doctrine I'll admit, but it does something to Christians "It Divides" them, who do you suppose would be behind that, I'll take a stab at it "Satan" :smt045

my kingdom does not rest on this earth. My kingdom is not of man. My peace rest with our Lord. I am a child of God's and I am ready to go home.

Jeshurun

You obviously didn't read my post correctly. I am talking about the Kingdom of God. Which is going to come to earth. If you are a believer in Christ you are already a part of the Kingdom. We are to strive to bring his Kingdom on this earth, by what we say and do. We are not to sit and wait for it, we are to be actively pursuing it. The Holy Spirit in us equips us to do the will of our Father.

Unfortunately it is not ending soon enough for my taste.

Hi Ken,

What you are proposing sounds a lot like dominion, kingdom now or latter day rain theology. Honestly, I'm very leery about this movement. It has many of the markings of establishing a manmade, one world religion; the ultimate goal of the Adversary.

The Bible speaks of some of the things you suggest, but it also speaks of Jesus Himself ushering in an Earthly Kingdom. Jesus seems to expect little faith on Earth when He returns:

Luke 18:7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?
Luke 18:8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

Paul confirms this as he explains to us there will be a great apostasy before the return of Jesus.

I'm not saying you are of this movement, Ken, just pointing out some similarities. Our role is to aid those who are suffering and to try and makes it less sufferable. Our prime objective though, is to spread the Gospel to aid in bringing souls to the Lord, despite the suffering in this world. Salvations is a once and for all escape from this earthly madness.

Exactly. What I am saying is that we are a part of the Kingdom of heaven when we accept the salvation offered to us by Christ. We have a duty to bring others into the kingdom. I was just saying that if we sit around waiting for Heaven we are not doing our part. Our part is to go forth and share the Good News of God.

 

[Jeshurun]

I am going to address some of you out there. First off this. I have confessed myself of being God's end of days prophet. Being a prophet, I am not addressing the non-believing, but rather the believing. The believing are having a hard enough time believing. I do have to ask myself why you as believers are having a hard time hearing God's words.

turnorburn, which child of God's, you have asked me, I am?

Revelation 21:6-7
And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
To you I may be coming up empty with nothing to add to this post, but God willing I may touch but one individual and they may see the truth in what I say. That is enough.

Is the world going to be left with Jesus ruling. Let's look at the scriptures.
Revelation 20:4-6
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

These verses sound like the earth may still be here, but is there living breathing people. "But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished." I say no.

The earth is here until.
Revelation 20:11
And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.

Earth see you later. The kingdom is here!!!

Vic, right have you said about "faith" the scriptures do not lie. When Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior returns shall he find faith on the earth. This folks is what I have been trying to explain all along. Jesus Christ is searching your hearts. Jesus Christ is searching your reins. If it feels right, it is right. If it feels wrong, it is wrong.

Many of you have said to me that you are concerned about my mental health. I am going to tell you what God told me to tell my mother. "Don't worry, he is in God's hands now."

I am God's chosen servant. Folk's, I didn't say I think I am God's chosen servant. Those words I am telling you. Could you imagine how much trouble I would be in if God hadn't told me to tell you that. I am telling you this with out one bit of fear. The only thing I fear is in the end will Jesus Christ find me worthy. I can say this for a fact. I fear no man, why should I. If it isn't God's will what can man do? Man can do no more than what God allows him to do.

On that note, I am going to call it a night. Good night to all. May Jesus Christ watch over every one of us.

That makes me have no belief in you. How could you know that you are God's chosen servent, but yet you don't know if you are worthy enough for the chosen time??

 

[Vic C.]

I believe you are sincere... I also know that several times you clearly violated and contradicted scripture and these things a prophet of God cannot do.

 

[Vic C.]

^ Tom just added another thing to the list of contradictions. :-? ^

 

[Jeshurun]

Tomalomi
The reason I have said, "I hope the Lord finds me worthy," is really between God and me. The Lord has given me more then anyone, but his previous servants, could know.
I have been told a few times now that I am going against scripture. I have told you what God has told me.
The story I have given to you is true and faithful. God has given me something in my life that is priceless. I shared it with you and you in turn have shared your thoughts with me. I am sorry that you can not see the Godliness in it. I am sorry for not being able to get the Lords point across. I am sorry I couldn't have put a little hope with your faith. But me being sorry does not change the fact, what is done is done.

I have had, I believe one out there "Ken". You said what had the walk to do with the end of times and that one could say, "you were dazed and confused."

I do not mean to leave you like that.

Luke 19:39-40
And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him. Master, rebuke thy disciples.
And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

Those stones that Jesus spoke of were the very stones that have now cried out. The stones were to announce his return and the end of mankind. The reason he told the Pharisees the stones would immediately cry out was because had the multitude not been stirred up then faith would not have existed there would be no reason for God to allow life to exist. Search your hearts, you will see it sounds right.

Mark 13:14
But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judea flee to the mountains:

"let him that readeth understand." I understand because I am he. Why would I lie to you? What would this profit me? If anything this may just guarantee me a spot where I really don't want to be.

Isaiah 43:2
When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.

This is also the walk. Remember in my story I told you the Holy Spirit was with me consulting me.

You can choose to believe it or not, but I have been called by God to announce the return of his son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

I wanted to touch on my contradictions spoken of by individuals out there. If you could please quote the scriptures and where in the scriptures it is being contradicted.

Folks read my story again, if need be. The story is true and faithful. Open your hearts and seek the truth. Does it sound right or does it sound wrong. Go by your heart, your heart will not lead you wrong. Do not go by your mind. It can lead you astray.

1 Corinthians 14:21-22
In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord.
Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe.

I never said your story was false. However, I do believe you may be misinterpreting the signs you have been given,

I've been reading my bible for quite a while now and "I don't understand where he's going with this" so don't be bashful stand your ground, the Lord is your Shepherd :smt045

[Jeshurun]

Tomalomi,
It seems to me you may have followed your heart. My story is true and faithful. The meaning behind it, that I have given to all, is also true and faithful. The Holy Spirit has spoken to me and given me the meaning behind it. I would not lead you astray from God's way. I have written this story, not because I would have had to, but because I wanted to share it with others and give you out there a wry of hope, maybe it is you don't need it. That is OK. It is as I have said in the past my words may not touch all, maybe you don't need that wry of hope, maybe you already have it, but my heart rejoices so much to know that Jesus Christ is now in me more than just faith. Jesus Christ lives. The bible is no longer just a book, the bible is every single word truth. i wanted to share that with you. I didn't know it would be so hard to believe me, but once again I say it is understandable.

turnorburn
It is not about being bashful and standing for this or standing for that. We are all that believe, "Jesus Christ lived. Jesus Christ died. Jesus Christ rose the third day." of one family. We are all no matter what we think or what we believe a child of God's.
God is the creator of all things. If you choose not to believe what I, say so be it, but whether you choose to believe me or not you now are one step ahead of some for we now know that the man that was spoken of in Daniel 12 has now been fulfilled. How you choose to use this new found knowledge is up to you. You can sit there and let your head fill up with, anger, jealousy, rage, hate, sympothy, sorrow and many other such tools of the devil, or you can open the book of Daniel and Isaiah and look at it in a whole new light.
We are all of us blessed, don't be so hardened that you can't see it. Look up and praise God and ask him for a better understanding, and after you have done or not done this see where you fit here.

Luke 6:20-28
And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.
Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.
Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.
Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets.
But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation.
Woe unto you that are full! for ye shall hunger. Woe unto you that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.
Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets.
But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,
Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.

I am not going to write anymore on this thread, but I am going to go back now to my own thread. If anyone wants to study the scriptures with me we can and will do it.

Watch and Pray always

Hello Jeshurun,
The strangeness of the "doctrine" is because the Greek word parousia is not in many church-going individuals vocabulary, due to it's being rendered as "coming" frequently in many Bibles instead of the proper rendering of "presence". This has been the basis for the expression “second coming†or “second advent†(adventus [“advent†or “comingâ€Â] being the Latin Vulgate translation of pa·rou·si´a at Matthew 24:3) with regard to Christ Jesus. While Jesus’ presence of necessity implies his arrival at the place where he is present, the translation of pa·rou·si´a by “coming†places all the emphasis on the arrival and obscures the subsequent presence that follows the arrival.

For example, at 1 Corinthians 15:23, concerning "those who belong to the Christ", chosen as "kings and priests" to rule with Christ in heaven, it says that these would be resurrected "during his (Jesus) presence", (parousia) which is formed from pa·ra´ (alongside) and ou·si´a (being; derived from ei·mi´, meaning “beâ€Â). Hence, pa·rou·si´a means, literally, “being alongside,†that is, a “presence" and not "coming". The Greek word parousia is used 24 times in the Christian Greek Scriptures, commonly called the New Testament, frequently with regard to the presence of Christ in connection with his Messianic Kingdom.(Matt 24:3)

Vine’s Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words (1981, Vol. 1, pp. 208, 209) states: “PAROUSIA . . . denotes both an arrival and a consequent presence with. For instance, in a papyrus letter [written in Greek] a lady speaks of the necessity of her parousia in a place in order to attend to matters relating to her property there. . . . When used of the return of Christ, at the Rapture of the Church, it signifies, not merely His momentary coming for His saints, but His presence with them from that moment until His revelation and manifestation to the world.†Liddell and Scott’s Greek-English Lexicon (revised by H. Jones, Oxford, 1968, p. 1343) shows that pa·rou·si´a is used at times in secular Greek literature to refer to the “visit of a royal or official personage.â€Â

Secular Greek writings are, of course, helpful in determining the sense of this Greek term. However, even more effective is the use given the word in the Bible itself. At Philippians 2:12, for example, Paul speaks of the Philippian Christians as obeying “not during my presence [pa·rou·si´ai] only, but now much more readily during my absence [a·pou·si´ai].†So, too, at 2 Corinthians 10:10, 11, after referring to those who said that “his letters are weighty and forceful, but his presence [pa·rou·si´a] in person is weak and his speech contemptible,†Paul adds, “Let such a man take this into account, that what we are in our word by letters when absent [a·pon´tes], such we shall also be in action when present [pa·ron´tes].†(Compare also Php 1:24-27.) Thus, the contrast is between presence and absence, not between an arrival (or coming) and departure.

In view of this, J. B. Rotherham’s Emphasised Bible states in its appendix (p. 271): “In this edition the word parousia is uniformly rendered ‘presence’ (‘coming,’ as a representative of this word, being set aside). . . . The sense of ‘presence’ is so plainly [shown] by the contrast with ‘absence’ . . . that the question naturally arises,â€â€Why not always so render it?â€Â

That Jesus’ pa·rou·si´a is not simply a momentary coming followed by a rapid departure but is, rather, a presence covering a period of time is also indicated by his words recorded at Matthew 24:37-39 and Luke 17:26-30. Here “the days of Noah†are compared to “the presence of the Son of man†(“the days of the Son of man,†in Luke’s account). Jesus, therefore, does not limit the comparison just to the coming of the Deluge as a final climax during Noah’s days, though he shows that his own “presence†or “days†will see a similar climax. Since “the days of Noah†actually covered a period of years, there is basis for believing that the foretold “presence [or “daysâ€Â] of the Son of man†would likewise cover a period of some years, being climaxed by the destruction of those not giving heed to the opportunity afforded them to seek deliverance.

Thus, we are living during a period of time that precedes "the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory",(Matt 24:30) and as seen in a vision at Daniel 7:13,14, whereby Jesus comes before the "Ancient of Days", God, and receives "rulership and dignity and kingdom" from him. When that happened in 1914, Jesus "promised presence" or "last days" began,(2 Pet 3:3,4) and will lead up to the "end of the world", Jesus arrival at that time "suddenly".(Mark 13:36)

At Isaiah 2:2-4, is outlines that during the "last days", during Jesus "presence" that began in 1914, there would be a worldwide educational work that would be done, teaching individuals from all nations to know the God of the Bible, Jehovah, and to "walk in his paths". As a result, these ones have learned the ways of peace, having beaten "their swords into plowshares and spears into pruninghooks" so that "nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more."(King James Bible) These are the ones that will survive the "great tribulation" spoken of by Jesus at Matthew 24:21, and at Revelation 7:9-14.

END OF THE WORLD UPDATE...........


It's even closer today. :crazyeyes:

 

[brakelite2]

2Pe 3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers,(and there are a few of those contributing to this thread) walking after their own lusts,
4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
8 ¶ But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
9 ¶ The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us–ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.(which part of this does not anyone understand?
11 ¶ Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

That this day is coming, the Scriptures promise. When? We do not know. But Jesus said that if we watched for the signs, we would know enough to know when it was close. He does not want us to be ignorant. He wants us to be ready. He wants us to be sharing the gospel so that others will be saved and not destroyed when He comes. There are many more prophecies in scripture that have a direct relation to His second coming than to His first. Christ's second coming will be the end of 6000 years of rebellion and sin. Satan will not give up without a fight. Just as Satan has convinced many of his own non-existence, so has he convinced many that Jesus will either not return, is delayed, or His coming is something not to be concerned about. These are all lies.
We have no idea how cataclysmic will be these last days. But the Word does give us clues. The plagues of Egypt are a type of what is to come. What happened to Egypt is a mere shadow however of the global nature of the coming crisis. The Book of Revelation is not a myth or fairy tale to allegorised out of existence. It is a real final warning to all who would be saved.
The Book of Daniel is the OT counterpart to Revelation. They are to be studied together,; revelation cannot be ubderstood without first graspiong the truths and symbolic images of Daniel. They explain Revelation.
We are now living in the toes of the image of Daniel 2. The rock that is cut out that smites the feet of the image is ready to come. The harvest of the earth is ripe. The tares and the grain have been growing together now but the harvest will be reaped. The tares will be burnt and the grain gathered and taken to God's heaven.
Jesus said: Joh 14:2 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

After the earth and the things upon it are broken and destroyed at the second coming, the result is told to us by Jeremiah.
Jer 25:30 ¶ Therefore prophesy thou against them all these words, and say unto them, The LORD shall roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation; he shall mightily roar upon his habitation; he shall give a shout, as they that tread the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31 A noise shall come even to the ends of the earth; for the LORD hath a controversy with the nations, he will plead with all flesh; he will give them that are wicked to the sword, saith the LORD.
32 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.
33 And the slain of the LORD shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the ground.

Jer 4:23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.
24 I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.
25 I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled.
26 I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, and by his fierce anger.


Isaiah had this to say:
Isa 11:4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.

also:
Isa 24:1 ¶ Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof....
...3 The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken this word.
...19 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly.
20 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.


While the earth is in this broken state, the saints are in heaven for 1000 years. At the end of the 1000 years the New Jerusalem comes down out of heaven , the heavens and the earth are made new, and eternity begins with God Himself making the earth the new capital of the universe and we shall riegn with Christ forever.

33 And the slain of the LORD shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the ground.

Jer 4:23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.
24 I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.
25 I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled.
26 I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, and by his fierce anger.


Isaiah had this to say:
Isa 11:4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.

also:
Isa 24:1 ¶ Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof....
...3 The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken this word.
...19 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly.
20 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.


While the earth is in this broken state, the saints are in heaven for 1000 years. At the end of the 1000 years the New Jerusalem comes down out of heaven , the heavens and the earth are made new, and eternity begins with God Himself making the earth the new capital of the universe and we shall riegn with Christ forever.
