and that there is not much time to repent and accept the blood of Jesus' sacrifice for them? I mean, Matthew Chapter 24 is pretty plain about this, and most Bible prophesy has already been fulfilled. Time is ticking away.

People have said this for hundreds of years...and were saying it in the old testament....
No one knows the hour of his coming...and remember generations to us, are miniscule amounts of time to God...the world could go on for thousands of years....
You look around and see all the bad...I see a lot of good...it just doesn't get the news like the bad does...
Lighten up, look to God's light...let him fill your heart with joy and peace...do good work and make the world a better place...more than likely we will be here a long time...you can make a difference, if you quit focusing on the negative, and look at the positive.

prophesy fulfilled,hmm. Disease?I think the black death surpassed anything today by a wide margin,the end wasn't then. War?WWII beat everything since,not the end then either. Moral decay?Has happened to empires throughout history. World Leader thought of as God himself? No one even comes close. If it were so,nothing new under the sun. No "signs" that weren't bigger "SIGNS" at earlier points in history.No millstone from heaven,no 1/3 of the waters poisoned,no billions of people dead,nothing. Besides,how did you expect that line of reasoning to work with someone who doesn't believe in god?

Sweetie,
You really set yourself up for the sort of responses you've gotten here.
This is an open forum with a broad range of participants. That is its strength. Use it to find out more about other people's beliefs.
If you want to talk only with Christians, there are plenty of other places where you can do so.

People dont want to see. They are blinded by the trappings of the World. Only those looking will see that time is short.

Good question, I guess the answer from seeing most of the answers is no. Keep trying to tell people, you are not responsible for their response, just the way you have responded to Jesus.
God Bless

1Co 1:21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
salvation is through Acts 2:38
Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
yes we must be ready
Mat 24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

I don't think people do realize just how short time is. Prophecy's are being fullfilled daily and people just dont' wake up. They will one day as the word says EVERY knee shall bow and EVERY tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord!

People have been saying that for a long time. Ever stop to think this how the church gets you to conform?

It has been 2,000 years...I don't see where the rush is. Repent then and leave the non-believers alone.
