'Where Is The Promise Of His Coming?' Media Mocks Christian End-Time Beliefs: Are we living in the days just before the return of Jesus Christ to this planet? Right now, there is a tremendous amount of chatter about the "end times" all over the Internet. So many really crazy things are starting to happen all over the world, and many people correctly recognize that we were specifically warned that a lot of these crazy things would happen in the last days. For example, in Matthew 24 Jesus specifically told us that there would be "wars and rumors of wars," "famines" and "pestilences" just prior to His return. As global events continue to spiral out of control, speculation that prophetic events described in the Bible are happening will only intensify even more. Of course, there are plenty of skeptics out there. In particular, there have been quite a few articles in the mainstream media lately that portray Christians that believe that we are living in the "end times" as a bunch of nuts. But even though they think that such Christians are crazy, mainstream pundits openly admit that there are lots and lots of people out there that are interested in learning what the Bible has to say about the "end times." And survey after survey has shown that a surprisingly high percentage of the U.S. population actually believes that Jesus will come back in the relatively near future. For instance, a survey that was conducted by the Pew Research Center discovered that 41 percent of all Americans believe that Jesus will "definitely" or "probably" return by the year 2050. Many pastors appear to believe that Jesus is coming back soon too. In fact, a LifeWay survey found that a whopping 56 percent of them "expect Jesus to return in my lifetime." It is so important for all of us to understand the times that we are living in, because God put us here for a reason. He could have placed us at any time throughout human history, but He deliberately chose to put us at this specific moment. https://www.prophecynewswatch.com/article.cfm?recent_news_id=5708 So true, Sis! TR 2050?!?!?!! :wacko: :wacko: :wacko: :wacko: I know, how could the rapture be as late as 2050? But these folks are not watching every day as we are. I was speaking to a friend, whose sister and her (the sister's) husband are ministers, about the rapture and she said, yes, it might happen in 50,000 years! Wow....They are ministers?? They might want to revisit the scripture how Jesus came down on the pharisees for not knowing the scripture and recognizing His first coming....... :wacko: No, the person who said that is not a minister. Her sister and the sister's husband are. Still, it's hard to imagine being so close to the truth but not seeing it. Sadly, many who say they love God and Christ don't share the Lord's heart! Especially with regards to His saving of the church through the great resurrection which has been taught from the beginning! Many still value earthly things more than heavenly things! Sadly, unbelief caused many Jews to die in the desert! Unbelief will cause many to be left behind in the deserts of Earth after the Rapture! TR
