What would you say and why?
For me, I would say now, because being in the presence of God is the most wonderful thing, and if you wanted to put God off, then there are things that are more important than God to you.

I would be torn at first because I don't want to miss out on my kids growing up and getting married, etc.
but I would say now because then we'd all be with Him (my kids are small) and it would be His timing.

I'd probably ask God to take the "angel" away, as the bible says that no-one knows the day or the hour, so it would be a false angel.
If, however, an angel asked if I personally wanted to die today or 20 years from now, that would be trickier. For me personally, it would be better by far to die and be with Jesus now - that would be amazing, but there's also still a lot God wants to do through us in the world (otherwise we'd be taken to heaven as soon as we became Christians.)

I would end the world today.
Which by the way.. the world is slowly coming to a grinding halt. Read or watch the news. Worldwide conflicts and natural disasters are taking their toll on mother earth.
Natural disasters have been happening since the beginning of time, but never this bad.
Science now confirms deadly diseases and viruses are spreading faster than ever. With no cure in sight.
Is this the generation Jesus spoke about in the first century?

(1) We have already been told that ONLY G-d knows the day and hour that the world will end, through the words of the Bible.
(2) IF someone does make this claim, refer back to number 1; he or she is telling you a lie.

i disagree, if God is letting you choose, he has givin you the opportunity to spend a little more time with the ones you love here on Earth. God will be waiting for us no matter what. It is NOT denying him. Plus, who am I to decide now to end the world. Even if i thought like you, it would be wrong in my opinion to make this choice for the rest of humanity.

For selfish reasons I'd want the 20 but in the big picture 20 years doesn't make much difference.

I would say, "Dude, you're a false angel. God promised with the rainbow that he's never going to destroy the world again."
Then, I would ask him a bunch of questions about what it's like to be a false angel.

im sorry to say, but God is the God of the living, not of the dead. you can only be with God in emotion while you are alive. to feel wonderful you must have emotion. when you die emotion die as well. only the living can have a relationship with God, that is why he gave you life, to have a relationship with him. i would ask God for another 1000 years
by the way i did ask him and he granted it revelations 20 verse6

I think God talked to Moses, and we're still here. If you believe in God then your already in his presence, right. I think when God wants me it won't take long for me to be in his physical presence. Amen.

...or you could simply kill your self like those dumb suicide bombers and go to meet your god.
why decide kill all the world ? just because you want to meet god. pretty selfish.
what if I don't want to meet god.
I would rather kill that angel and send HIM right back to heaven for such an insult.
(In the movie "The 300" thats what the Spartan King does to the muslim who threatens him)
