The end of the world??

jessicabjoseph, it does not say that he will destroy the earth. He will end the CURRENT system of things and place the survivors on the Earth in a setting comparable to Adam and Eve's. Why would he have created that and then completely change the purpose of humans? Because Satan challenged him, you might say? Well, just because Satan challenged him doesn't mean his purpose for humans has changed. If you've read more of the Bible you will find Scriptures stating that God never lies and he always keeps true to his promises. Like the Scriptures you have mentioned. He will keep true to those. The Earth will be restored to a paradise, NOT be destroyed. \n\nThe gospels really do not try to disguise teachings. They only speak in metaphors when quoting Jesus because of the way he spoke to his listeners since they were mostly uneducated and had to be explained complex things in terms they could understand. A theif coming in the night needs no watering down.\n\nYou cited Psalms 37:29: "The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever." \n\nWould you see that the righteous is inheriting the land? Or ever has? No. FAR from it. Only Adam and Eve BEFORE they sinned. But this was written after, of course. So God WILL destroy this SYSTEM of things and implement a new "rule" with him as King ON THE EARTH. He has the ability to restore it to it's original beauty.

ummm people will die, people will be born. There will be an election in the US and probably several other countries. There will be hurricanes, earthquakes, floods. There will also be a bunch of new TV shows, and some guy will win the lottery. Basically it is going to be the same as every other year.\n\nNow if you are referring to the fact that it is the end of the Mayan calendar, and several freaks out there are predicting the end of the world, well don't worry. They have never been right yet. And what did they Mayans know, if they were so smart they would still be around.\nRemember all the people that said the year 2000 was going to be a big disaster? guess what... nothing.\nSame thing different calendar. \n\nNow go out and enjoy what time you have left.... heh.

we know not when the end of the world shall be.  i'll tell you now, it won't be then because so many people expect it.  Even Jesus said, "For not even the Son of Man knows when this day will be, or the angels of Heaven.  only the Father knows."

I know the world will come to an end because the bible says it will. The words of Jesus were very clear on this, the end Will come.\n\nWhen will it be? I don't think anyone alive knows, even Jesus said that no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, not even the son of man and of course not men, only his Father in heaven does.

Anybody who tells you that the world is going to end on this date or that date should not be listened to.  God is in control and He will fulfill His plan at and in His timetable.  The Bible makes it clear that we do not know when the world will end and there have been people predicting it since the time of Jesus...all wrong so far!  Blessings.

what is your question? of course the world will end at some point in time...but I don't believe you have proof.

I think the idea of such a drastic end is scary for everyone. However, I don't think it'll be the end of the world as it will probably be more of the end of the world as we know it.\n\nAlso, no one can tell you when it'll happen. That's not knowledge anyone will ever have

of course not. some people said the end of the world was 2000. the answer is NO

Well, it depends on your definition of "end." Are you referring to when humans can't live here anymore? Do you mean when the planet itself is utterly disintegrated? Are you referring to a Biblical apocalypse?\n\nTo any of these conditions, no one can say. However, to the first one listed, our continued destruction of the environment continues to lead to more polluted air, ground, and water. And, while the melting of the ice caps will raise water a great deal and wipe out coastal cities and land, it certainly can't cover the entire planet. Stubborn as humans are, we'll probably find some way to survive through technology if we mess things up that badly, which would be extremely sad to have destroyed such beauty. We also might start a nuclear war that kills everything but cockroaches, but the planet itself would still be here. \n\nCondition two, where the planet is disintegrated, could be brought about by several ways, as well. A large comet, asteroid, or meteor might smash into earth, breaking it apart and causing it to no longer technically be a planet. When the sun finally goes nova (estimated to be 5 billion years away), if it reaches this far out, which his possible, it would swallow the earth, likely blowing it to bits. Then there's always the "Hitchhiker's Guide" route, where we'll be destroyed for an intergalactic highway.\n\nAs for the Bible, only the Father knows. Not even Christ knows when it'll happen. People have been incorrectly interpreting the signs for hundreds of years, so all the tabloid doomsday people are probably just as wrong now.\n\nIn short, no one can see the future, and you're right. We don't take good care of our planet. We really should appreciate it more while we still have a planet to enjoy! Who knows, tomorrow someone might throw a nuke, so go out and enjoy earth! And just in case someone doesn't start World War III, go and take care of it, too, so that generations far into the future can look back on this time and say, "Wow, look at all they did for their children and their children's children," instead of, "How on earth could they be so selfish and uncaring?"

The bible says only the father knows when the end will be. And it gives us the signs to look for for to tell us whn the end is near. Take a look around, see what is going on in the world today, violance, hunger, wars, distruction against the church, etc. We are living the tribulation already , it has already begun. read the boobk of Revolations. Are you really prepared???

You're probably right. Jesus said these thing would happen. Don't think it's right to speculate on when the end will come, after all, there are countries in the world where churches are burned down and Christians are killed for their beliefs, and these things have always happened. It's always felt like the end times to someone somewhere. As the Day approaches, satan knows he is running out of time so he steps up the pace. But read the end of the book, WE WIN! Keep the faith. Pray for your church.

No, I dont believe the world will end until our sun collapses. Of course, that says nothing about the human race, which may or may not be long since extinct by then. While our species and many others will vanish, there will always be life on earth to the end, even if it's just archaebacteria.
