end of the world?

"In the Bible there is about 2500 prophecies. Currently, around 2000 of those prophecies have come to pass-leaving about 500 left. These future events are considered the End Time prophecies and throughout this paper will describe a few of the major prophecies still to come."

the bible is hardly proof. its nothing more than a 2000 year old story book.
these prophecies are nothing more than interpretations, and everybody interprets things differently.If you are so confident in the hundreds of thousands of prophecies that have been made, then predict something before it happens.
Just dont look at history and point.

 

THE BIGGEST SKEPTIC IN THE WORLD: IT COULD HAVE BEEN ME
(courtesy of http://bibledesk.com/)


To the best of my memory, before I came to the saving grace of Jesus Christ, I did not believe the Bible was true. I doubted whether there was a God and believed that we were born, lived so many years, and then died. I owned a successful business and thought that I had succeeded by my own wits.
One evening, my wife and I heard some documentation that these were the last days before Jesus Christ would actually return. Not really wanting to hear it, I almost walked out. Something kept me there, and I listened. I was not convinced. I still had doubts whether or not there was a God. I doubted whether there really was a Satan, heaven, hell, or a judgment. Just to be sure, however, I decided to do a little research. My idea was to find out if the Bible was really true. Indeed, if I could find one contradiction, one error, or anything in the Bible that was not true, then that would be all that was needed to disregard it. (I wasn't necessarily interested in whether we were in the latter days or not, but just trying to find out if the Bible was really true.) I believed this would take a very short time.
As I have learned, the Bible has about 10,000 prophecies (verses). Nearly one-third of the Bible is directly or indirectly related to prophecy. This endeavour led me into far more research than I could have suspected. One thing needed, was to determine when the Bible was actually written. Because of this, a study of biblical history and archaeology was necessary. I found the Old Testament was indeed written before the coming of Jesus, as the Dead Sea Scrolls (containing parts of the book of Isaiah) were proven to have been written before Jesus came. The book of Isaiah includes forecasts of Jesus. Thousands of clay tablets have also been found, which confirm many accounts in the Bible.
I began studying the prophecies in the Bible. My wife would go to the library for me to obtain documentation from reference books to see if the prophecies really did take place. One day went by, then two days, and then a week. Every prophecy that we were able to get information on proved to be accurate. Two weeks went by. Then four weeks passed. My job became of secondary importance. Every prophecy that we were able to verify checked as being true. I was astonished, but far from convinced. I still had doubts as to whether there was a God, a heaven, or a hell yet I had to be sure. Later, there were people who would show me what appeared to be contradictions in the Bible, yet these were not contradictions at all, but only a lack of research on the part of those that said these things. I was searching to find if the Bible was true. My wife spent a lot of time at the library making copies of various reference materials, which I would check out against the Scriptures. Stubborn, that's me. Even after four weeks of intensive study, proving prophecy after prophecy was true, I was still skeptical and refused to believe. I began taking more time off from my business and investing it in study. One month turned into two, and two months turned into four. The more I researched, the more determined I became. It wasn't possible. The Bible could not be perfect. Thousands of prophecies, and every one perfect? No, impossible! Sixty-six books written by many people over hundreds of years and not one error? If I would admit that, I would have to admit there was a God, and I was not prepared to do it, even after months of research.
My studies also included various translations of the Bible, checking prophecies against reference books, archaeological discoveries, just to mention some. It became an obsession with me. My foremost desire was to know the truth. Four months turned into many months. I've never known anyone, before or since, that was willing to take this amount of time just to find out if the Bible was true. Finally, I had to admit I was wrong.
If you would walk across the street 10,000 times and never get hit, then you would walk across the street the next time by faith. So it was with me. Finally, after spending almost countless hours of research, I had to admit the Bible is true and is indeed the perfect Word of God. Anyone willing to take the time I did and do the same research, could only come to the same conclusion, if they are honest with themselves. I may have been the biggest skeptic in the world, but now I know. It did not come easy, but by God's mercy and grace, it did come.

 

"If you are so confident in the hundreds of thousands of prophecies that have been made, then predict something before it happens.
Just dont look at history and point."

E-man216, the Bible has predicted about 2000 prophecies already with a 100% accuracy. There are 500 left to be fulfilled in the near future, which are considered the end-time prophecies. If you actually read the link I provided you you would see the Bible has prediction of the future.

Lets try again.... here is the link that describes some of the major events still to come predicted thousands of years ago in the Bible ...

It'll start with an earth-quake. Birds and snakes. An aeroplane. Lenny Bruce isn't afraid.

 

There will be a mutation in spiders and they will get super huge and take over everything, and then I will get a mutation and have gills so I can live under water away from the sick beasts because they freak me out so bad eh::shakes all over::

 

I am not sure America will be the dominat power unless something happens this century.

All things pass and like the Roman and British empires America power will crumble after a few hundred years.

I think China is the place to watch out for. They have the highest population by far and you should see the advancement of Shanghi in the past decade.

The current good world economy is solely based on China's booming economy.

And with the pension problems America will face soon with the baby boomers, who knows the future. Sure will be interesting I think.

With the Chinese wanting more and more fuel when they all start driving I can big deals being done with the Middle East countries. Will America be able to hold Saudi Arabia's favor.

 

I especially liked this part http://r-campbell34.tripod.com/babylon/id1.html
It's true... most churches aren't even warning their congregation of the end times and how to prepare. Our pastor has had several sermons on it, not to mention the end times bible study by Irvin Baxter ( www.endtime.com ). It has several up-to-date commentaries on certain issues that are taking place at the moment.

 

I dunno, but the worlds like suppose to um end in like year 3797, yeah I won't be alive then, oh yeah neither will u cats, uh...what were we talking about again?

 

I don't know, but I doubt we'll be here to witness it. Humans will be outlasted by many other animals and insects.

 

Humans will become insects.

Didn't you know that ants are the descendants of a sentient race that lived on Mars millenia ago? They developed a capitalist society with ever increasing areas of specialisation. Just the genetically engineered slave workers are left....

This is how its going to happen...

Book of Revelation is false.

The end of life might come from an inside job. Inside meaning the soul gets disconnected from the body of all living creatures or just us humans. Then a newer climax to life would begin in our continueing to exist as our souls transform to suit newer and different bodies for some newer aspect of life to have.

Sounds far-fetched, but you never know.

 

Your theory is false

 

"Your theory is false"

I dunno... it makes more sense than the whole "heaven n' hell" thingie...

 

The heaven and hell thingie has more facts then his personal theory which has hmmmm no facts

 

"The heaven and hell thingie has more facts then his personal theory which has hmmmm no facts"

Yer theory has no facts either, Jack... sorry...

 

It has more facts then you know... but all you want to do is believe what you wanna believe. Refusing to look for the truth because you do not want to change your sinful life. You don't want to look you just want to find. But how can you find if you don't wanna look.



It is common for people in our age to dismiss the Bible as "myth and ancient history." It is also politically correct to view Bible believers as closed-minded but the real closed-minded ones are those who neglect to check out for themselves what the Bible is really about (Why I Believe the Bible, Scott Huckaby).

"Refusing to look for the truth because you do not want to change your sinful life."

I am not a sinner nor am i refusing a god-damned thing... i just don't care...

"You don't want to look you just want to find."

Nooo, i just don't care... And you don't want to admit that you might be wrong... even if it's by the tiniest margin, yer ego won't allow you to think the theory you've chosen might be flawed...

Look... yer thoery is not based on facts... it's based on somethin' better... faith... yes, faith... why isn't that enough fer you... why do you have to search fer all these "facts" to strengthen yer faith?... is it a pride thing... "ha ha, i'm right, yer wrong, nyah nyah"... or was i right in assuming that you had begun to lose yer faith, and this is yer way of desperatley clinging on?...

why isn't faith enough fer you... i'm an atheist and i still have faith in what I believe... and that's enough fer me... and "no", it's not "blind faith" 'cuz i'm more than willing to admit i might be wrong... so why isn't faith good enough fer you, too...?

 

"Refusing to look for the truth because you do not want to change your sinful life."

I am not a sinner nor am i refusing a god-damned thing... i just don't care...

-Accordind to the Bible you are a sinner. By not caring you refuse to look for the truth.

"You don't want to look you just want to find."

Nooo, i just don't care... And you don't want to admit that you might be wrong...

-Because you don't care you don't want to find.

even if it's by the tiniest margin, yer ego won't allow you to think the theory you've chosen might be flawed...

Look... yer thoery is not based on facts... it's based on somethin' better... faith... yes, faith... why isn't that enough fer you... why do you have to search fer all these "facts" to strengthen yer faith?... is it a pride thing... "ha ha, i'm right, yer wrong, nyah nyah"... or was i right in assuming that you had begun to lose yer faith, and this is yer way of desperatley clinging on?...

-Prove the Bible wrong! Instead of just saying oh well this clould of happened or what about this. Tell me why the Jews are in Israel and that the took judah first and jerusalem second and that they are one nation with one king and that the Bible predicted all of this thousands of years before that happened.... How can a this ancient book do this??


why isn't faith enough fer you... i'm an atheist and i still have faith in what I believe... and that's enough fer me... and "no", it's not "blind faith" 'cuz i'm more than willing to admit i might be wrong... so why isn't faith good enough fer you, too...?

-Why is atheism not blind faith? What is it based on. How do you know it is right?.... bc there is no facts to support atheism and bc you're willing to admit your belief is wrong makes it not blind faith??? WOW!

Why believe in something if it is simply by faith. If it is just by faith it is blind.
