End times

Hello Christians:

I've been reading the thread about some date that's rapidly approaching, when the earth will end, or something like that... The people engaged in that thread actually believe it.

I suppose, if you believe in your religion, that would be something you'd think... My question is, and I mean no disrespect, how do you deal with your day to day life KNOWING there's only a few days left???

I cannot imagine waking up each day knowing I had only a few mornings left. Do you REALLY believe that this upcomming date is it, or is it just some undetermined time wayyyy down the road?

But, I'm interested in hearing from those of you who think there's only weeks left.

Exy, this is nothing new.

According to Christians the world should have ended many times already. Then, when it doesn't happen they claim that they translated the bible verse wrong, etc. etc.

It gets old after a while. Heck, it was old the first time.

Wasn't there a thread last year about the world ending because of Cern? A lot of Christians claimed that the bible said that it would happen.

There was so much hype, some people really believed it was the end. The day came and went and now they need to pick another day, because they got it wrong.

Will the world end one day? I don't know, and I don't believe anyone else does either.

When it happens it happens, and I plan to be having sex when it does.

Yep. This kind of talk has been going on as long as there have been Christians. It never happens when they predict it will, and then they assign a new date...and a new date...ad nauseum.

I am a Christian.

If a Christian goes by the bible. NO ONE KNOWS THE END. THE LAST DAY. NOT EVEN THE ANGELS IN HEAVEN OR JESUS HIMSELF KNOWS THE DAY.

Okay, just had to say that.

Yes, like others have said. Many religious leaders have claimed to know the end, or last days. Each and every time they were wrong.

My take is that those who want to believe that the end is soon are having a crappy life and are too lazy to fix it.

Wasn't there a verse that said "no man shall know..."? The bad part about these charismatic or gimmick preachers is the harm they do to the credibility of the truly good.
