This is what Jesus answered when his disciples asked what would be a sign of the second coming and the end of the age
Mat 24:6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see
that ye be not troubled: for all [these things] must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
Mat 24:7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
Mat 24:8 All these [are] the beginning of sorrows.
Mat 24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
Mat 24:10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. "

do you think this is Satan's attempt at taking the light from what God is really trying to do, by using, ppl like Ale Gore to make ppl think they can stop what God has set in motion?
Now i'm not saying just the earth is going to go through crazy stuff, that gives you the right to pollute and not take care of it, however ultimately i believe God's will, will be done when it comes to the earth and fulfilling what he has said will happen.

I'm not screaming, "Run for the hills it's the end of the world!!!" However, because we do not know when Christ will come, we have to always be watchful

There have been several good shows on TV lately about how prophesy continues to unfold in front of us (Glen Beck, Larry King and others).
No one knows the hour, but I hope and pray all are ready. I want as many as possible to go to heaven when the time comes.
God bless you.

Matthew 24 is a prophecy about the great tribulation and God dealing with the Nation of Israel again. It is prophecy that is called Daniel's 70th week. It is not being fulfilled today. Matthew 24: 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: If you have believed and trusted that the Lord Jesus Christ died for your sin you will not be here to go through the wrath of God when it is poured out. The global warning is all not true. Use a little common sense back in the 70 they said we were going into a ice age. That didn't happen and neither will we have global warming. Check out the people that are preaching that and you will find out what the motive is all about.

Actually some people believe Al Gore is the anti Christ and eh is doing all this to make himself look good. The truth of the matter is, the bible has predicted the crazy weather, but not everyone trust in the bible so they come up with their own theories.
It is easier to accept these things as a believer and not even get worried about the after affects.

The Fourth Seal – The Beasts of the Earth
We are witnessing the decline of the earth’s environment and resources, a prophetic fulfillment of the Bible.
At the Fourth SEAL, one-fourth part of the earth is to be destroyed before we move forward to the next Seal events (Re.6:7-8 below).
Once the one-fourth part is destroyed, we will move through the SEAL events, followed by the Seven TRUMPET events, and, finally, the Seven Last PLAGUE events.
When the world faces acts of terrorism are we not facing beasts of the earth (Re.6:8, Jude 1:10-11, Titus 1:12, 2 Pet.2:11-13 below)?
Re.6:7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
Re.6:8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the FOURTH PART of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
Beasts of the Earth
Jude 1:10 But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.
Jude 1:11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain (1 Jn.3:12, Matt.13:38), and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.
Titus 1:12 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.
2 Pet 2:11 Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord.
2 Pet.2:12 But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption;
2 Pet.2:13 And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;

When Jesus talk of the end of days, he wasn't referring to 5 days or 1 month but a period of time...notice that we have been experiencing all calamities in history but it was the aftermath of World War 1 when the pestilences, famine, poverty, calamities increased worldwide.
Revelation 12:7-9 states: “War broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels battled with the dragon, and the dragon and its angels [the demons] battled but it did not prevail, neither was a place found for them any longer in heaven. So down the great dragon was hurled, the original serpent, the one called Devil and Satan, who is misleading the entire inhabited earth; he was hurled down to the earth, and his angels were hurled down with him. . 12 On this account be glad, YOU heavens and YOU who reside in them! Woe for the earth and for the sea, because the Devil has come down to YOU, having great anger, knowing he has a short period of time.”
Ever since then, Satan and his demons have been confined to the vicinity of the earth. We can logically assume that Satan having such anger wants all of us be killed...
For more understanding read Revelation chapter 6 (Four Horsemen) to see how much of Revelation has been fulfilled.

Sounds rather vague, don't you think?
And what about all the thousands of times before now that there were wars and famine and pestilence and earthquakes? If the Black Plague wasn't the fulfillment of this scripture, what will be?

Revelation 16:
8 And the fourth angel poured out his vile upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire.
9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of GOD, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give HIM glory.

All of these things have been happening since people started thinking that these things signify the end of the world. They thought, in Jesus' time, that the world was going to end then and that Jesus would return... and he hasn't has he?
Make better use of your time and spend it cultivating an understanding of what's really making this happen and redirect your behaviors towards the planet accordingly. Learn altruism and compassion and don't sweat the small stuff.

"end time prophecy" is losers grist for the mill who're superstitious feeble minded sheep. in addition they forget approximately Christ's coaching against such stupid ideals. Luke 17:20 And whilst he replaced into demanded of the Pharisees, whilst the dominion of God could come, he spoke back them and reported, the dominion of God cometh no longer with indications: :Neither shall they say, Lo right here! or, lo there! for, behold, the dominion of God is interior of you.
