Sure, for like the 50th time in the past 2,000 years, all are fulfilled.

just out of interest i decided to look up some of these prophesies. it would seem that the specific ones like the rebuilding of the temple and everyone converting to Judaism, (Isaiah 2:2-3) has not happened. there is no king of Israel, (Hosea 4:3) and if your going to say the bible is the literal word of god, it must be a king otherwise it would have said leader. there also seems to be some indication that the early Christians expected the last days then, (Hebrews 1:2). 2 peter 3, he is writing a letter to his restive flock who are impatient for the coming of Jesus, why would they be impatient if they hadn't been told his coming was immanent. Peter's letter is metaphysical allegorical avoidance that any modern politician would be proud of. peter say that the last days will come unexpectedly, them why the signs and prophesies? Matthew, again the apostles are told that Jesus will return within the present generation, they would be alive to see it, are they still alive? Matthew and mark; earthquakes, there are always earthquakes, very few generations have passed without major earthquakes occurring. the eath is no more or less active than it's ever been. famines, the great age of famine, in europe at least was the 13th and 14th century. the age of global famine was the early to mid 20th century, the politicaly inspired famines in russia and china by stalin and mao, the great bengal famines by the british, india before the green revolution. famines are less common now and are almost immediately relieved. warfare is no more endemic now than it has ever been, there have always been wars. indeed there are probably less conflicts among nations now than there has ever been. as for people, the average joe in the street is probably more socially responsible and caring now than ever, politicians are another matter. people give more to charity and volunteer more than they ever have, there is more concern for their fellow citizens than ever before. once children mocked the afflicted in the streets, and it was not that long ago, this would be unthinkable now. wher i live, in the 19th and early 20th century, violence, murder and rape was endemic, soldiers and marines had to patrol the streets because the police were incapable of doing it safely. the poor and unemployed were left to rot, cities were full of diseased and malnourished children. it was not uncommon for whole families to commit suicide in the despair of unemployment. this all occured while the callously, unconcerned, god-fearing middle classes carried on with their lives. this would not happen now. our cities are becoming safer and cleaner, people as a whole are becoming better, more caring, more concerened. we are more concerned about our world, our environment and our fellow man. how many peole in the 1940s would have given a damn about darfur or rwanda, not many i bet. there have always been prophets of doom, in every age, in every nation and every religion. there have always been signs of the end and i expect they will continue. slowly, step by step the world and the people in it are becoming better. stop and really think about it.

The Word of God declares that Jesus, the son of Man will not return until every corner of the world has been preached and taught of his love. Every man has to have a chance to willingly accept or willingly reject the Christ. Afterwhich, the Word says that even though there will be signs, letters and false comings, those who believe should not be detoured. We shall all see him when he comes. For he will decend from the heavens with a shout of triumph and every eye shall behold him. The dead in Christ - shall rise first - and all who remain will be changed - then caught up to meet him in the sky. Then the tribulations of the world will occur. Believers will not be here to experience satan's last laugh upon the earth. Oh Glorious day! Keep believing and keep telling others -be a witness and spread the love of Jesus.

No. The second coming of Jesus comes after the tribulation. He is met with groaning and gnashing of teeth. Only those to be judged will be left. Also, the scripture states it is not for man to know the times the Father has set. I do believe we are living in the "end times". Global warming is nothing. It is all fortold in the Bible as signs of the end times coming.

If he was going to return according to the prophesy it should have happened like 1000 years ago. Proof that religion is false. How can there be so many religions each saying the others are all going to hell because they dont share the same beliefs? Religion is a man made institution. Just like historical facts, religous beliefs have been rewritten over and over until they no longer resemble what was believed thousands of years ago. The bible has been translated incorrectly and edited. But hey religion makes people feel good.

yes. There really is not direct prophecy of Jesus return. The Old Testament scripture that everyone like to say is about the second coming is actually about the first coming.

Not all, but a great many are being fulfilled as I answer. One world currency, ID chips, 7 year peace treaty with Israel, one dominant world figure selling peace and dealing evil- oh, and don't forget The Rapture must occur before Jesus comes back with His Army. It's getting closer, but they've been saying that for years. No matter. He is coming and soon. Are you ready? God bless.

There is nothing hindering the coming of Jesus for His followers. The rapture can occur at anytime. Only the rapture needs to occur before the great tribulation begins. So, as long as you have asked Jesus to be the Lord and Saviour of your life and have asked Him for His forgiveness....then you have nothing to worry about.

I believe it's just starting to happen. I believe we will see the scriptures fulfilled in our lifetime. As stated in an earlier answer, " when the gospel has been preached to all the corners of the world" (not word for word...) with the comunication boom going on now, and just about every corner of the world hooked in, it will begin soon. I pray that I am truly ready, and all the rest of my brothers and sisters in Christ, also.

No, the temple has to be rebuilt, and as you may have noticed, the dome of the rock is on it. The Jews can't rebuild it till first, they remove the dome of the rock, and they have to have all twelve tribes to sanctify it, and they're still looking for one of the tribes. Haven't seen the antichrist yet either. Things are heating up, but not quite yet.

I think once we're not expecting him to come he will. For all we know he can be a baby on the other side of the world right now. .
