your thought on .....the bible says ...man will distroy man, and how much time do you think we have ?

Answer 1

I have said this before about the End Time and explaining away the prophecies so I will list what I said and source them in.

First off, how much time do we have? Not very much. I cannot say the date, time, or year, because if I did, I would be a fool to do that. Only God knows when the End Time happens. Not even Jesus knew or the angels. Just God.

Let me list my source. This is Source #1: Biblical Prophecy

Yes, I do see the connection, friend. Let me explain.

I will say my opinions. Be aware that this may frighten others so be considerate.

If anyone knows about the 150,000 troops, please state what will happen. I didn't look into this one.

For the Palestinians and Israel going head-to-head on talks over the West Bank attacks, there's also the implication of recognition for Israel and the Beast who will deceive the world.

You may wonder who is the "woman that rides the beast". The woman who rides the beast is the great harlot, the RCC (Roman Catholic Church), and the beast is the person that resides in the Vatican. That person will come out of the Vatican to decieve the world, speaking blasphemies against God.

For Iran's nuclear situation, think of this. I warn you, this is much bigger than you might think and may not be accurate due to newspapers changing every now and then. With Iran, they deny they are building nuclear weapons but are looking at ways to negotiate than following a pre-conditional trigger. Iran has nations on the talks, hoping to negotiate. They are Germany, UK, France, US, Russia, and China. The six-nation talks as you would have it. Look at the bigger picture than this. Russia (which is known as Megog), China (known as Gog, ally of Megog), are actually Iran's allies. Think of the books that always provide heart-throbbing suspense. China and Russia are pulling both strings, playing both as mediators and alliies. Russia and China may say they want to negotiate but they actually want Iran to continue to build nuclear weapons. Remember that Russia is nostalgic of the USSR and its heydays of bloodshed, repression, communism thanks to the democratic drawbacks. For China, they see the alliance with Iran as a way to boost the imperial power of China's military. On a side note, Russia is secretly building their military, expanding their force. China, on the other hand, visits US bases to see exercises being conducted. Why? Because our US politicans want to see what China has in their arsenal. Would China a.k.a. Gog do it? No. All it comes down to this is Megog and Gog are becoming ready for their attacks.

So, keep reading the Bible and checking with news. The prophecies will be fulfilled as said in the KJV and I believe every ounce of it even if they have not come to pass yet.

If you are not saved, do so now. Because once this all starts, and the national ID card comes out, Satan will come out like an angel of light, trumpeting. Everyone will take the ID card and accept him as a god. Then afterwards, there will be mass beheadings of people who resist the card that is required to buy or sell. There will continue other seals. But, anyone who asks to be saved by God, God will laugh in derision because you disobeyed Him and did not listen before He wreaked all His great wrath. I'll list the websites in my source list so you can take a look at the seven seals and the End Times Prophecies.

Source #2: End Times Discussion

One culture is prophesing straight from the King James Version Bible, the inerrant Truth of God or Word of God. And this is more closely in touch with the world right now.

Listen closely. I, for one, need to remind myself that I cannot scare you because it is NOT my intent on this answer. My intent is to bring you closer to how real it can be and what will become of the world. I will label the things as CALM so you may know that things are suggested in that label in a placid, understanding tone; but while the label SCARY will speak of terrible things... things that will be prophesied true: the Seven Seals and the Tribulation Period.

Please allow me to list my two sources from different websites on the source list. Please know that it is NOT my intent to scare you. It is my intent to help you understand the fragility of the situation.

We are at the year 2006. People long percieved time is coming. Yes, this is coming, no doubt, hence the seven seals. However, we will talk about the things that are of calm nature for you.

CALM

With the Word of God as the inerrant Truth and the Final Authority of God's Word, we pre-Tribs believe that the Iran situation is bringing into fold what the prophecy will occur. Hence the tract of "The Beast" by Chick Publications. I warn you, read it at your own discretion. Now that we got this past, what is happening right now is that the situation is unfolding.

With Iran, they are denying they are using uranium for specific parts that the E.U and America fears. Russia and China are mediators and allies of Iran, which complicates the plot. Russia/China wants to negotiate Iran's plan of uranium enrichment but also wants Iran to proceed. Make sense yet? The six-nation talks is the major part of what's happening. There's also the Israel-Palestine talks to observe on. North Korea is an isolated incident that Pyongyang wants attention. Just that. They just want attention.

The situation right now is that this is moving slowly but real closely to the time when Jesus Christ, our Lord Savior and the Lamb of God, would come like a thief in the night and take away the believers of God in what's called the Rapture. Now, it does not necessarily say that the Earth will be blanketed in night. People will be raptured in the daylight as much as in the nighttime in different timezones.

Now, are you ready for the scary parts?

SCARY

READ AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION!

Read the tract "The Beast" by Chick Publications first before continuing in this part. Now that you read it, how did you think of it? Terribly scary and frightening, yes? I did warn you before it's not my intent to scare you but to help you learn. Compare that time to our time now. Which one do you want best?

It's not the time now that I want you to choose over. I want you all to get saved, accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord Savior, and know that God is the most holy, the most righteous of us all.

You can't get saved because you got scared. You can be saved only because you want to accept Jesus Christ as your Savior. I'll detail how you can get saved later after the scary part's over.

With Iran, Russia, and China as allies, there's other factors to consider. Israel will be attacked upon the eve of North, East, and Southern attacks. North may be Russia, East will be the Middle Eastern countries, and South will be Egypt. With this in mind, you have equipped yourself the knowledge of what to expect of an attack into Israel.

For the seven seals, it will be played by the Beast, who plays a vital role in decieving the world and speaking blasphemies against God. The Beast will rise out of the Vatican, powerbase of the Roman Catholic Church, otherwise known as the "woman who rides the beast". He has a role to play.

Read the link to the site about the seven seals. Read through it. You done? That's scary now, huh? Cross-reference with the seven seals and the tract I listed. Now you get an understanding picture of what's really clear. If you delve yourself into the Tribulation, it's way too late for you to start asking Jesus to be your personal Lord Savior.

But never fear, friends, there is a way for you to get saved. Here is an email sent by indiebaptist that details how you can get saved. I want you to get saved, indiebaptist does, and my friend Dave Faulkner does. Heck, every IFB wants everyone to get saved. The entire world but the prophecy says that not the entire world will repent of their sins and accept God.

and now, salvation unto Christ...

All of this is not good for anyone who is not saved right now. How to get saved?

Let me enclose a piece of email that will help you.

The Way Of Salvation

------------------------------...

According to God's Holy Bible, there is a place called HEAVEN and a place called HELL. The Bible tells us that every person will spend eternity in one of these places. God wants everyone to know the way to HEAVEN. The following verses from the Bible point the way . . .


The Reality of Sin

The Bible tells us that "All have sinned, and come short of the glory of God" (Rom. 3:23). This means that ALL have fallen short of God's standard, and missed the goal. My friend, this means, "There is none righteous, no not one . . . They are all gone out of the way . . . there is none that doeth good; no not one" (Rom. 3:10,12). The good deeds and self righteousness of man is in vain, for God says, "All our righteousness is as filthy rags" (Isaiah 64:6).

It is absolutely useless for a sinner to depend upon his good works to make him acceptable in the sight of God. "The scripture hath concluded ALL UNDER SIN" (Gal. 3:22). "There is NO MAN that SINNETH NOT" (I Kings 8:46. "ALL WE like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way" (Isa. 53:6).


The Reason for Sin

You may be wondering why that every person is a sinner. The Bible tells us, "By one man sin entered into the world" (Rom. 5:12). That one man was the first man upon the earth and his name was Adam. "In Adam all die" (I Cor. 15:22). We are all descendants of Adam, and just as a physical likeness is passed down from generation to generation, even so a moral likeness is passed down.

Therefore we are sinners by nature and we are sinners by choice for "ALL HAVE SINNED" (Rom. 5:12). "The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born" (Psa. 58:3). "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked" (Jer. 17:9). "By nature (we were) the children of wrath" (Eph. 2:3).


The Result of Sin

Every sinner (unless he accepts the ONE true remedy) will spend eternity separated from God, in a literal burning hell. Please do not doubt the following verses from God's Word.

"The soul that sinneth, it shall die" (Ezek. 18:4). "Sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death" (James 1:15). "The wages of sin is death" (Rom. 6:23). "IF YE BELIEVE NOT . . . ye shall die in your sins" (John 8:24). "The wicked shall be turned into hell" (Psa. 9:17). "And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire" (Rev. 20:15).


The Remedy for Sin

The remedy is NOT IN another HUMAN BEING: "Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one . . . " "None . . . can by any means redeem his brother" (Job 14:4; Psa. 49:7). The remedy is NOT BY MONEY: "Ye (are) not redeemed with . . . silver and gold" (I Peter 1:18). The remedy is NOT BY WORKS: "By grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast" (Eph. 2:8,9). "Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us" )Titus 3:5).


But the Remedy is Only Through the Lord Jesus Christ

Do you feel guilty over your sins? Do you feel sorrow for your sins? The Bible tells us that "godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation" (II Cor. 7:10). "God . . . commandeth all men everywhere to repent" (Acts 17:30). A person who never repents will be lost forever! "Repent . . . and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out" (Acts 3:19). Repentance is more than sorrow over sin, it is a change of mind. It involves turning from sin and turning to the Lord Jesus Christ by faith.

Are you ready to turn to the Lord Jesus Christ, the only true remedy for sin? He is the only one that can cleanse you of sin and make you a child of god. "Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world" (John 1:29). "As many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name" (John 1:12).

Christ literally became our sin bearer, as He took our place and died for our sins. "For he hath made him (Christ) to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him" (II Cor. 5:21). "Christ died for our sins" (I Cor. 15:3). "Who His own self bare out sins in His own body on the tree" (I Pet. 2:20).

Will you right now take your place as a poor lost sinner and confess Jesus as your Saviour and Lord? "The gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Rom. 6:23). "Jesus saith . . . I am the way, the truth, and the life: NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE FATHER, BUT BY ME" (John 14:6). "If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. . . For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Rom. 10:9,10,13).

If you do not understand how to be saved, then read this tract over and over again until you do understand. The eternal destiny of your soul is at stake. Do not lay this tract down until you know your are save.

If you are willing to receive Christ as your Saviour, get on your knees right now and tell the Lord and then thank Him for His wonderful salvation. Then get up and tell others what God has done for you.

Answer 2

Man will destroy man as long as there is someone to destroy. It is human nature, or probably more like an animal nature. All of us have that beastly animal that wants to do bad and wrong. It's just that some of us fall into this and some of us don't. There will always be destruction and killing and war until the Last Day. As for when that will be, I have no idea. Nobody does. The Bible says that not even the angels know when it will happen. Please, just live your life to it's fullest and make sure that you know where you will be going when the world does end.

Answer 3

All I can say about that is to look at all the signs around that show we are living in the end times and time is short. I don't even pay attention anymore to all the programs they show on TV about prophecy because there's nothing anyone can do about it. I live as a christian and believe in the bible, but sometimes to dwell on "The End" can get pretty depressing.
Man is destroying man everyday. It happens from murder to air pollution to population control. The food we eat is poison and unhealthy. I bet that if it were possible to live on another planet that was completely pure and to come back to earth for a visit, the air would smell pretty bad compared to anywhere else.

Answer 4

Just look around you. Bush is attacking countries for no reason, almost every counrty has a nuclear arms program, and most nations are ready to blow up their neighbor. The more technologically advanced we become, the dangerous to ourselves we become. Last time I checked, there are enough nuclear weapons in exsistence to destroy the world fourteen times over. Why do we need this massive destructive force? Why does it even exsist? If we put all the money we're spending on weapons towards something good, and useful, we could comepletely eliminate homelessness and poverty. Even better, almost everyone would be financially comfortable.

But that's not going to happen. It's impossible for every country in the world to disarm themselves, because if they did, they'd feel powerless. And no one wants to feel powerless. So we keep pouring cash into the very weapons that will end up destroying us, all so we can feel safe. Ironic, isn't it?

Answer 5

I don't think that the world would be ended by a man. What bible would be saying can be explained through what we're looking at nowadays. Isn't man killing man on such a large scale, for his own petty benefits?

Answer 6

I don't think man will destroy man. I think the human race will die when the sun goes out....long time.
