Ok...so I was thinking about this...
Revelation 1:7 Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen.
Ok, this is saying everyone, even those who pierced Him(I'm taking the people who crucified Him...so they'll return from the dead) will see Him....
When Jesus comes back, will it be too late to ask? Is it like a cutoff? I mean, if some people who live in sin and error pinning see Jesus and they're like "oh crap...they were right!" and they start to pray for forgiveness...will it be too late for them or will God accept their prayers and they'll be saved by Jesus too?

"well, I'm really not worried about it because I dont sin"
Even if you don't believe in Jesus...you still sin and you just did by lying. You can't change the definition of a word just because you don't believe in Jesus or God.

Awesome Bekka lol....
And Endora...it is the 21st century, that's how Jesus rolls now! lol....
Anyway, I'm going to laugh when I turn 80, and then I keep living and turn 81 a year later....I'm sorry, is it a law that you are killed when you turn 80?

Remember "Doubting Thomas." He got a chance to experience the resurrected Jesus and then he believed. It WAS said that it is a greater man who believes without seeing, but the story still implies to me that we filthy non-believers will have our chance if he ever shows up again.
Also, a reading of the rest of Revelation would indicate that there is a chance.

Fear of the consequences is not a valid reason for repentance.... sorry - the "oh crap they were right" confession is a bit too late...
Think of a child caught with his hand in the cookie jar... is he sorry because he got caught or does he genuinely recognize the reasons why what he was doing was wrong??
God knows our hearts... and regardless of when your "last days" might be, I think He knows the level of sincerity and the reason for which you are repenting....

I'd be asking the Lord Jesus Christ into your life now. We do not know when the Lord will be returning, "Be prepared"

I have to admit, I have wondered this myself. But the question now is, are you willing to take the chance that the answer is that you are to late?

Thats great it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an aeroplane and Lenny Burnside is not afraid...
...Tell me with the rapture and the reverent in the right - right. You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty psyched.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

"When Jesus comes back"
I do admire how you can say that in all faith after 2000 years. I mean, it's insanity but you seem so convinced. For the rest, I don't really get forgiveness with an expiry date.

It's going to be so funny when/if you turn 80 and the world hasn't ended yet. LOL.

There's a lot more after that. People have lots of chances to be saved.
