2012

The world will end on December 21, 2012, according to some interpretations of the Mayan calendar. It shouldn't surprise us that some in our society have grabbed onto that to preach the end of the world.

It should surprise us when Christians do it. Yes, I've heard some do it.

When will the world end? Jesus said, "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father."

And the Mayans.

Really? Why are we even having this conversation?

We don't know when the end will come. Maybe it will be a thousand years from now. Maybe it will be today. Plan like it's the former; live like it's the latter.

And maybe we should stop listening to people who want to predict the end.

I agree we cannot know the day or the hour but it does seem to indicate you can know the season due to certain events..it is also written "a prudent man foresees the trouble to come and prepares himself for it...I do believe we are very rapidly approaching the Days of Sorrow and lots of jews, including american rabbis are preparing to move to israel, one does need to watch what is happening there, and lets face it , christians are being slaughtered all over the world. It would be the height of religious vanity to assume we are above God's correction as a nation...christians oft times lose sight that we not only have personal sin but also national sins..thanks for listening and keep up the good work..
