I think the Old Testament is almost completely myth, and I think all of the miracles of the New Testament are as well. There might have been a person who lived 2000 years ago who the stories of Jesus Christ are modeled after, but if so he was just a mortal man like you and me.
So I am not afraid in the slightest of him coming back. But I do have some fear due to Christianity. It is the fear of so many people believing a myth that calls of the destruction of society. I fear these people will make a self-fulfilling prophecy.

No - Christianity scares people like me because of the people who represent it. It has nothing to do with some invisible man coming "back" to the planet. It has everything to do with it's followers. They want to legislate morality in this country, based on a book of fairy tales - a book about talking snakes, men of clay, women becoming pillars of salt, 500 year old men, giants, dragons, and talking firey bushes. Let's not forget the idea that you'll earn your reward in "heaven" but if you're bad, you go to "hell". At any rate - it's not so much the religion for me that's so horrible - it's no different from any other, just more pervasive in this society. It's the fundamentalist followers who scare me the most.

There are many things to take place before He arrives...They are falling into place very rapidly at the present time. It has been moving slowly since the late 40's but time has been speeded up in our time. When many things have taken place and there is much loss of life, then it will be closer to that time! One third of the world's population is a pretty hefty decimation.

My experience with Christianity was scary! I'm not judging the entire faith....I'm just saying my experience was horrible.
I have been threatened with all sorts of unspeakable events that can occur if I don't get everything correct. Every time I asked questions I was talked down to....and any further questioning was seriously frowned upon.
It's just a scary experience, and I don't think I want to repeat it.

Yes and Yippy !!! He is comming back - God is not to be feared, but to be worshipped and loved and adored. The folks that fear (and I was one of them at some time believe me) do not know Jesus as their personal Lord and Saviour. No one knows the time or the day that He will return. This is a Great thing!!! Many folks try to tell the future of others, but they cannot even predict the weather correctly! Wierd!! All folks need to do is realise that Jesus came not to condemn, but to bring peace within the hearts of man, not as the world knows peace, but the deep knowing of Him as a personal Lord and Saviour, and God is not a puppet as many folks also believe. We must stand back in Awe of Him He is God alone and He can teach us so many things.
Why? Do you fear the one's who really love you? I don't think that many of these people who do love you will give their only son to die for you!!! God did just that He allowed Jesus to be put on that cross so that we - who were still sinners, mind you - could be saved. When this acceptance of Christ into one's life occurs after one realized what Jesus has done and is doing, all that fear goes and one wants to worship and love Him LOL!!!!
All Fear Flees When Jesus Walks in that is a Guarantee!!!

You should be happy about that. And have a hope and a lot of peace,
He's coming back to take you to be with him
Christianity is not making anyone scared.
Fear is opposite of faith.
Faith will give you a desire to go with him.
He has mercy and will abundantly pardon, all sin.
no one is perfect, only the father in heaven.
Have no fear and don't be afraid.
He loves you, he careth for his own.
You are his own, you will not be here when all the bad things happen.
You will be caught up to meet him in the air
and so shall we ever be with the Lord

I believe people fear it because there are so many people that believe in it...... In the New Testament, it was told the 12 apostles to go out and spread the good news or "gospel" as it is called....
And today, that message has spread to every part of the world..... and, there are people that are willing to die for it.... Just as there were people willing to die for it back in those days.....

People have been saying that Jesus will be coming back very soon for centuries. It kind of makes you think it's overhyped...and maybe not happening.
