When do you think the end of the world will come?

[HansNZ]

What do you mean by "end of the world"?

From a Christian view, the world will never end. If you are speaking of Rapture,Tribulation, Armageddon,etc then I believe it is very near BECAUSE THERE ARE NO MORE PROPHECIES TO BE FULFILLED before the return of Christ (Rapture).

Bless you my son, I am already here.

Seriously though, I suspect it will end when Iran detonates hundreds of nuclear weapons over Europe, America, and Asia as American armies close in on it. The world will freeze over, killing plant and animal life in a nuclear winter. The last people will die after running out of food because they've eaten all the dead bodies and captured and cannibalised all the other people who are left.

I think we will go the same route as the dinosaurs....a large asteroid we never saw coming.

Ick....

Really? Can you list em and when these were fullfilled? I really would like to here this. No kidding.

You don't ask for much, do you?

There is oh so much to list. I'd be easier to say what's left to happen (major events).

1. A war that kills 1/3 of humanity (might begin when we go into Iraq).

2. Last 7 years begins when a covenant is confirmed. This covenant will enable Israel to build a temple on the Temple Mount. The person who does this should be the antichrist. This deal should last for 7 years, but I'm uncertain if the year span will be expressly mentioned when it's done.

3. 3 1/2 years into this last 7 years, Israel will have competed the temple and begin blood sacrifices. The antichrist will enter the temple, stop the sacrificing, and declare himself as god.

4. After this, vast persecution of Christians will begin. Those that won't be part of the ecumenical movement will be targeted. At this point, there will be an effective global-level government, global economy, and global religious ethic.

5. There will be a new world power that somehow is composed of 10 leaders or 10 nations. The antichrist will head this power. He will be a head over the revived Holy Roman Empire and the Pope in the Vatican at that time will be the False Prophet (even Catholic prohecies uphold this....he will be the last Pope).

6. Everyone in the world will be required to take a mark to buy or sell. As "mark" means to be punched or to break the skin, it mean the implantation of something. The VeriChip being pushed now is 100% capable of doing this job. Take this and they can track you anywhere and identify you with a simple scan of the implanted chip. Those who refuse to take the chip will be excluded from the global economy. Taking this mark will require some kind of loyalty oath, and doing so will eternally condemn you becuase you will be taking an oath to the antichrist.

Spend some time checking out www.endtime.com for more on this in better detail. Listen to past broadcasts archived on the webpage.

It will end by next year.

Almost impossible. Dinosaurs didn't have telescopes, NASA, and other forms of space technology

I hope I live to atleast 35 before I die.

With the funding, astroners are only able to track about 4% of the entire sky.

Does the AntiChrist have to be a person or can it be a country?

It seems that the USA is the closest thing to a world government we have seen. It rules the world. Even the Roman empire only ruled the Western world. The USA is the only country to dominate the entire world.

The global religious ethic could be money and globalisation.

The US dollar could be the Global currency. Maybe it is the "mark".

The USA could be a possible metaphor for God by claiming to be the global advocate of truth, human rights and freedom.

The antichrist is responsible for the last world war leading to armeggeddon. This may be what the USA is about to start in the Middle East.

Baby Gorilla, thanks for pointing out some of that info.

I have tons of info/researched on this very subject.

I will bump this thread up again whenever I can get my stuff together. Right now work prevents me from doing so.

Some points I'd like to express are the things written in the bible that until VERY recently were thought of as impossible and laughable. Here's what I mean.....

The Antichrist will make someone in his image.
-This was thought of as impossible, but recently cloning has been discovered. Now a duplication of someone isn't too hard to believe is it?

The two witnesses that stand and preach during the tribulation. It is said that after a while they will be killed and the whole world will watch and celebrate.
-until recently people wondered how this could be that the whole world could witness this event. With all the satelites, the number of televisions, the internet, etc. It is very possible for the world to witness one event at one time.

The mark of the beast in the hand or forehead
-just look at computers and now they are even begining to place microchips into people!

Tracking people with the chip (buying and selling, etc.)
-They are currently developing a super computer that is capable of doing approx. 100,000 billion calculations per second. This is how they are going to keep track once the one world government/religion takes affect.

I could go on, and this is just from my memory as I don't have the resources to cite scripture or news articles confirming these with me right now.

read the left behind book series..

it will really put things into prespective and give you and idea of what is to come....

If by the end of the world you mean the complete destruction of the planet itself, it will come no later than roughly 6 billion years from now when the Sun uses up all its hydrogen fuel and expands large enough to completely consume the first 3 (or possibly 4) inner planets (i.e. us).

Though incredibly stupid, I don't think humanity is powerful enough to completely destroy the planet, so barring an alien invasion (highly unlikely) or collision with a very large object (also highly unlikely), we're looking at about 6 billion years.
