I've heard a lot of people say the end of the world is coming. And they are absolutely correct. 2018 is (or will be) the end of the world as we know it.

From my book:

Last Page Yearly Supplement 2018 in Bible Prophecy As I always do, I must add my standard qualifier here but with three words added this time:

These predictions are based on the Bible, and thus cannot fail to come true— But I may be ahead of God’s (and/or Trump’s) timetable by a year or two.

1. The first of the last plagues – skin cancer – will begin to abet But the others – especially global warming – will continue for a while yet

2. Trump together with some NATO nations and Russia, et al, will also take out Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi— The demon-possessed king in Raqqa (or wherever he is trying to hide from Trump & company).

3. Trump & company will also take out Kim Jong-Un, the evil little whore in Pyongyang. (See commentary on Revelation 17 for more on little whores of the atheist kind).

4. Trump will no doubt also have to take out the evil Ayatollah Khomeini, the de facto king in Tehran, Because Tehran is very accurately pointed to and bisected by the Jerusalem- to-the-dry-Euphrates direction.

5. Trump will also have to take out Mawlawi Haibatah Akhundzada, the evil king of the Taliban in Afghanistan. He has already taken out many fighters there with one drop of the exceedingly great “Mother Of All Bombs” which gives Trump the upper hand.

6. The Good News is, that’s it. When all of Satan’s forces are killed off (as we are commanded to do in Luke 19:27), The long-awaited “Heaven on Earth” will commence, and the 24 Christian nations in NATO will rule the Earth unhindered by Satan for a millennium.

Your kingdom come, your will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven, Amen!

And what difference does Anglican versus Catholic make in actual practice? The Anglicans support abortion on demand. Catholicism, of course, rejects abortion in all cases except to save the life of the mother.

In fact, there is a clear delineation between the most Catholic countries of Europe and the rest.

The following countries are the only countries in Europe that do NOT have abortion on demand: Belgium, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Malta and Poland. What do they have in common? They're all Catholic.

Some of those countries do allow abortion in cases of fetal handicap or rape or incest.

Of course, religion - Protestant AND Catholic - is fading in Europe, while Islam grows. The Christian-on-Christian fighting of the past managed to kill a great deal of the faith.

Most of those NATO nations have a negative birth rate and any increases are due to Muslim immigrants and refugees. Not to mention every EU nation has permissive abortion laws. When will this change?

Of course. God always works through men. In the Old Testament it was Isreal. And now it is through Christian nations. (The God of the OT is the God of the NT)

Europe is dead. The largest expansion of Christianity is Asia and Africa.

There never were any Anglican priests in Ireland. The Irish were Catholic from the time of Saint Patrick. Always in union with Rome, from one tip of te island to the other. There was not much religious dissension there, and there was no Reformation in Ireland.

Irish Catholics never did anything to the Scottish Protestants in Scotland or the English Protestants in England. Irish Catholics and English Catholics lived in peace under a common, Catholic king for 300 years. The Protestants came out of England and Scotland seeking to murder the Irish Catholics for being Catholics, like Hitler went after the Jews - with that degree of hate and that degree of evil.

I never said there were any Anglican priests in Ireland (that I know of, but there may have been a couple), and I never said the Irish Catholics slaughtered any Anglicans in England. What I said was, Roman Catholic kings (and queens) slaughtered Anglican priests and the Anglican Bishops.

But neither the Anglicans nor the Presbyterians liked the Irish Roman Catholics, or any Roman Catholics for that matter, and that led to fighting on both sides. And there is no way that one side was any better than the other side. There is peace now and you really need to quit trying to stir up all that shit again. BTW, my Grandma's Irish ancestors were Irish Protestants, and immigrated to the US to escape the fighting and persecution inflicted by the Irish Catholics.

You're just making it up as you go along.

I only post the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. The split with Rome began when the Anglican Church (Canterbury) refused to accept the decrees of 7th Ecumenical Council which said Mary was forever a virgin. It had very little to do with divorce laws. That was just the last straw (that broke the camel's back).

For the record, many Anglicans/ Episcopalians do NOT support abortion on demand. And in the 24 NATO nations I'm speaking of, Christians are still in the majority. Why else do you think God is going to let them rule the Earth for a millennium?

As I have told u guys many times, God (and Jesus) and all ETs follow the Star Trek directive. They only interfere in the life/evolution of a planet when it is deemed necessary to preserve the intelligent life. In Luke 19:27, Jesus makes it perfectly clear that when He returns with a kingdom, He leaves it up to His followers to kill off all the bad guys. He was only here very briefly when He returned on Oct. 27th, 312 AD, and the rest is up to us. It is up to 24 Christian nations to rule the Earth for a thousand years as prophesied many many times in the Revelation of the Kingdom of God.

Well, the Bible tells you that when Christ returns, heaven and earth will pass away in a rush, that the City of God will descend, the graves will be opened and the dead will rise, and all will be judged.

None of those things happened in 312 AD when a celestial pattern of planets and stars sort of formed "PX"

A transitory pattern of stars and planets that, with imagination, can be seen as resembling a pair of Greek letters, which popular Christian thought associated with Christ (who was called that by the Christians - his name was Iesous, which did not appear in the sky), without the other stuff like the end of the world and legions of angels and plagues, etc., doesn't match the Bible pattern at all.

When a similar pattern occurs in the stains in a teacup, one does not say that Christ has returned in one's teacup.

Catholicism IS Christianity, according to 95% of the world's Christians. The crazy fringe like you assert that anybody who doesn't see and understand things exactly the way your Pastor Bob tells you to, are not really Christians. Somewhere inside you have to know you're wrong, but you can't stop yourself.

And the real irony here is that, yeah, the description of the end of the world IS spoken out loud by God and the angels in Heaven to John, and he was told to take dictation, so those, in fact, ARE red letter words using the criteria of "Jesus said it".

I am glad you brought that one up.

I was a little bit off with that prognostication.

First of all, the vector pointing to the demonic kings of the east passes through Qom, the home of the Ayatollah, the real king of Iran and not through Tehran the home of the puppet king.

Second, it appears that Pres. Biden will be the president who takes him out (not of his own volition, but at the behest of our secretary of defense and our generals, after the Ayatollah killed 3 more US servicemen yesterday)

And yes, as usual, I was a couple years ahead of God's time table --cause I want the thousand years of peace to hurry up and get here, and it can only happen when all the bad guys are taken out. And not only Ayatollah Kohmieni, but Putin too, also Mr. Un for good measure and anyone else who doesn't want Judeo-Christian nations ruling the earth.

Heaven and Earth passing away, and the New Jerusalem descending on a new planet with no sea happens a thousand years from now and has nothing to do with the return of Christ in 312 AD, when the sign of Christ appeared in the clouds. That's when Constantine, with a bow, conquered all the known world at the behest of Jesus; and all of the pagan Romans (who crucified Christ) mourned over their dead soldiers (exactly as prophesied in the Revelation to John).

There is no possible way the second coming can happen in the future because 1. the pagan Roman soldiers are no longer around (having died in 312 AD), and 2. No one conquers even the smallest of countries with a bow any more, much less all the known world.

PS The sign of Christ (in use even before 312AD) was an XP, not PX. "Xp" is the first two letters of Christ in Greek

Ah, were it only possible to take all the bad guys out. But men are born in a constant generation, more and more as the years go by. And large numbers of men go bad. Kill one, another takes his place.

To kill all of the bad men would be to empty the planet.

Now you are getting the point (of both the Revelation and the Bible). The seven last plagues are the method God uses to take out half of the planet. Two will be in the field, one taken, the other left. Two women will be grinding at the mill, one taken, the other left. Two men will be in one bed, one life will be taken, the other left.

In several other verses, Jesus says half of the earth (all of the bad guys) will be taken out. And Jesus doesn't tell fibs.

Jesus did return that generation to reveal the Kingdom of God as promised. He revealed it to John when they were both about a hundred years old.

Like I said, Jesus does not tell fibs. If He did, you might as well throw the Bible in the garbage.

No, I'm not kidding.

Jesus said many things about his return, and none of those things happened. I don't really want to go through the Gospels and Revelation and quote him over and over. In brief, he said he would return in glory on a cloud with great power and glory. He didn't. He said when he came, he would judge the world, separating them like sheep and goats, into Heaven and eternal punishment. Never happened.

And the first century Christians who wrote the New Testament didn't think it had happened either. Paul was earliest, and he was looking forward to the coming of Jesus. The synoptic gospels came, and they spoke of Jesus coming. Peter's letter, written later, calls those who are questioning when Jesus would return "scoffers", and in the very last book written, Revelation, at the very end of the century, the author is pleading "Come Lord Jesus."

You think he came back? Ok. But he didn't come back like he explicitly said he would. So if he didn't lie about coming back, and did come back, then he fibbed about the manner of his return, and what would happen.

Like you, I like to interpret things. But it only goes so far. When a guy says overtly he will come in glory on a cloud to judge the world and all will see it, and that he will separate people before his throne, and give them each their recompense, I could see recompense in what happens after death, but the coming in Glory on a Cloud that all see? Never happened. And people don't see that in their NDEs either.

So I assert firmly that No, Jesus did not return. Not like he said he would.

If you want to interpret little things at the edges to mean he has, you can. But that seems to me like a rather desperate attempt to save the man from the consequences of what he said would happen.

He may come like a thief in the night, they day may catch people unawares, but he is supposed to return in glory on a cloud for all to see. That's what HE SAID would happen. And that hasn't happened yet. (And it doesn't happen to each individual in their NDEs. It actually doesn't happen at all - that is not what people see in their NDEs.)

There really isn't any way to reconcile our two views. Yours is based on interpretations of what he said. Mine is based on far less forced interpretations: I read what he said. He said he would come back, in glory, on a cloud, in that generation, and judge the world. And he didn't.

Which means, to me, that ultimately it wasn't true. He was a good man, but he failed to do what he said he would do. That's the bottom line. I still like him, but I'm not going to bend reality to try to save him from himself.

And anyway, not everything he said is all that great. Turn on your family and leave them and don't look back for him? Why? Because he's going to return that generation and judge the world? Well, ok, if that were true then it might be worth it. But it wasn't true. He didn't. So no, don't turn on your family, and don't give it all away. He said so, yes, but it's bad advice. And he said he would come back in glory on a cloud that generation and all would see and judge too, but he didn't.

Jesus says some good really good things about charity. He also says some fanatical shite. And he either lied about coming back on a cloud and judging the world in that generation, OR he believed it, but was wrong, because he wasn't what he thought he was. Either way, abandoning reason to follow a first century fanatic who didn't do what he said he would do, but who will leave you broken, lonely, and poor if you follow him to the letter, is unwise.

Which is why Christians don't REALLY do what he says. They do SOME of what he says - the parts that are reasonable and seem good - but they ignore the crazy fanatic stuff. Abaandon your family for him? No. That's what cult leaders say. Sell it all and give it all to the poor? Well, if they world were going to end like he said, sure. But it didn't. so no, you have to live in it, and your children, and theirs, and so on. So, Jesus demanded it, but he was an idiot in that regard. Don't do that.

If you want to pick all the good out of what he said and do that? Great! Proceed! It's much better than what Yahweh said in the old testament (kill people for leaving home on Saturday, kill people for being raped in the city, or for eating shrimp) - that's insane. Allah said very similar things - kill the infidel, rule him and make sex slaves of the women. Chyeah. Or the Hindu gods with their idea that if you're suffering in this world, it's karmic justice for what you did in the last life, and you frustrate justice by helping the lower castes. Disgusting. Jesus has a much better message.

But it's contaminated with insanity, and sealed with a promise that he could not fulfill. So yes, follow him, as far as is reasonable. But don't believe he's God - even HE said he wasn't (he said the father was the One True God) - and take him at his word: he was coming back that generation ion a cloud in glory to judge the world. He didn't. That's the bottom line. End of the discussion.

The Jehovah's Witnesses knew the world was ending, Jesus was coming. They knew the world would end in 1917. It didn't. They knew it would end in 1940. It didn't. They knew it would end in 1975. It didn't. They told their people to not bother to educate their children, to sell all their possessions and wait. Three times the earnest dupes did that. Three times they were left destitute and ignorant.

Happens every time, and will keep happening.

So, it's fine to "read the signs" and see the end of the world coming. And if you fervently believe in it, it will: you'll die, and the world will end for you.

But if you go farther and actually do what Jesus said: leave your family and sell it all and give it away. You'll die alone in a cardboard box under a bridge overpass, and leave your estranged family destitute - all over a fantasy.

So, keep your fervor for Jesus within bounds, and you're fine. Actually DO everything he SAID to do, and you'll end up crushed and sad in a world that goes on and on and on. Because he wasn't God, and he didn't end the world like he said he would.

Sorry.

does not tell fibs. If He did, you might as well throw the Bible in the garbage.

That is advice I will take. You are a liar so I throw everything you say in the garbage.

Jesus said many things about his return, and none of those things happened. I don't really want to go through the Gospels and Revelation and quote him over and over. In brief, he said he would return in glory on a cloud with great power and glory. He didn't. He said when he came, he would judge the world, separating them like sheep and goats, into Heaven and eternal punishment. Never happened.

And the first century Christians who wrote the New Testament didn't think it had happened either. Paul was earliest, and he was looking forward to the coming of Jesus. The synoptic gospels came, and they spoke of Jesus coming. Peter's letter, written later, calls those who are questioning when Jesus would return "scoffers", and in the very last book written, Revelation, at the very end of the century, the author is pleading "Come Lord Jesus."

You think he came back? Ok. But he didn't come back like he explicitly said he would. So if he didn't lie about coming back, and did come back, then he fibbed about the manner of his return, and what would happen.

I can assure you that everything Jesus predicted happened, except for a few things (very few) that are still in the future.

Lets take the prophecies one at a time.

When Jesus said "certain of those standing here" would see him return to reveal the Kingdom of God, that certain person was John, as Jesus, in John's Gospel, clearly signifies right before He ascends into heaven (i.e,into a cloud). Jesus was talking about his appearance to John in 95 or 96 AD to give him the "revelation" of His Kingdom.

Jesus returned with a kingdom in 312 AD when His sign appeared in the clouds over Rome, and that same night He appeared to St. Constantine and said, "By this sign conquer."

And the first thing in the morning, that's what Constantine did. He put the sign on all his armor and on his laburim, and carrying only a bow , Constantine conquered all the known world for Jesus and His Church. All of the pagans were mourning exactly as prophesied.

What most people don't realize is that Jesus himself doesn't kill anyone. His followers do all the killing, as Jesus, in Luke 19:27, makes perfectly clear.

More later,

And the part where Jesus said that he would divide the sheep from the goats, sending the sheep to everlasting life and the goats to everlasting punishment? When did that happen?

Like I said, the 7 last plagues are the method that Jesus uses to accomplish that.
