No one knows when the end of time will be, only God the Father does. The Bible says He will come like a thief in the night. It also states He will return at a time when we wouldn't think it would happen. That is why I try to point as mant people to Jesus as I can. Time is running out, we are one day closer to being"HOME." There is nothing in the Bible taht must be fulfilled in order for Jesus to return. We need to stop looking for signs, and start listening for the "sound". He shall appear with a mighty trumpet blast, and call His children home. As a Christian, I cannot wait...it's gonna be wonderful. I am worried about the lost, however. It's my sincere prayer that all will call upon the name of the Lord to be saved.

Definitely Jesus will return as per his words.\n\nMATTHEW 24:30 -  And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. \n\nMuslims also believe the Jesus will return.

That is NOT a Christians job to do this. If a Christian could do it, Then Jesus Christ would have NO reason for the 2nd coming.\n\n.

I believe that we are living in the end times.  Jesus will be returning soon, I can feel it deep in my soul.  Many Bible prophecies about the end times already have happened, and more are still coming true today.  Such as "there will be wars, and rumors of wars".  Well, we're in the middle of a war with Iraq right now, and there are rumors of other wars in other countries.  It's happening, and it's happening very fast.  Therefore, yes, I believe that the Antichrist is alive somewhere today.  It would be a scary thought for me, but since I've already accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior, I know that I won't be here when the real suffering begins.  Once Jesus comes back and all the believers are taken to heaven, everything on earth is going to start getting much, much worse.  I thank God that I won't be here to see it, and pray that the ones I know and love won't be here to see it either.

I'm a Christian, so hopefully if it happenned for real I'd be one of the ones raptured up.  If not, I'd go directly to my church, figuring I'd lost my salvation, and I would pray to accept Jesus again!

You are taking things out of context. The "Comforter" you speak of is the "Holy Spirit" and he appeared to the Apostles on Pentecost Sunday baptising them with fire. Jesus also foretold of his own Second Coming. As for Idol worship what specifically are you referring to? There are many who have misinterpreted the coming of another to mean\nMohammed, or Joseph Smith, or Charles Taze Russell, or Rev. Moon of the Unification Church, or David Koresh but hopefully you see many have made the claim but are really just "false prophets"

There has been no second coming of Christ and one thing about it we better believe in God ad Jesus and the christian people there are good. it doesn't matter about the beard why should we ask such a question.

Now, just why are you so concerned about what God might, or might not do in the future? Did not Jesus say to stop worrying and to seek first the kingdom and God's righteousness? "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." \n\nIs it necessary for you to know how John's prophecies will work out, or when? Why is the outcome for other people filling your mind when the big issue is, "Can I glorify God today?" If you spend each day considering how to honour and praise God, he will take care of your future. \n\nThe book of Revelation is all about The Big Picture - what's going on back-stage, behind the scenes of this troubled earth. When we're taking part in life we see and understand little, and with frightening speed, it's time for us to leave the stage of earthly life. Revelation comforts believers as they have their eyes lifted up and away, to see how God defeats the powers of darkness. That's his job. Make the most of each day and trust in God for the future. Now, why don't you turn to Matthew chapter 5 and get your feet back on terra firma?

What an interesting and complex question -- By defination anitchrist is (anti) against (Christ) things that are of Christ and/or Christian and/or Christ-like -- Now this question would be answered differently by many different  religions -- To get some full background information on this I would suggest to research the topic on the internet -- Now some would argue that the antichrist might be a person, a group, a country or even a belief itself -- I was raised to believe that it would be a person that would come in the time of Revelations at the end of days -- But as I grew up and became an independant thinker and studied religion and philophy and had long talks/debates with my father who was a Philsophy and History Professor and a Minister, I decided that it was a belief more than a person -- I also discovered that the belief in the Rapture is an American invention and not a Biblical fact and do not believe that it is inevitable -- Also that from the historal evidence that I have seen that John's Revelation has already taken place with the Roman Empire and that the second coming of Christ was Catholicism and the wars of Constintine -- But I suggest that you do some reading and research of your own and decide for yourself, after all that's what Faith is --

Dear babeintheredbarn, please believe me on this...the Second Coming of CHRIST WILL OCCUR IN THIS GENERATION!!! LOOK at IRAN!--They WILL get a nuclear device sooner than most want to admit. They have a huge ace up their sleeve...OIL! And they want the city of Jerusalem under their control...however, so does a Catholic/German led Europe! So you see, THIS TIME IT IS FOR REAL!!! Iran WILL INVADE JERUSALEM and EUROPE will INVADE IRAN AND OVERWHELM JERUSALEM!!! Every prophecy in your Bible that was predicted CAME TO PASS! Persia,Greece,Rome...all came to power AS GOD SAID IT WOULD! The good news is CHRIST IS COMING TO PUT AN END TO SUFFERING FOR ALL TIME! Face the TRUTH!--either GOD IS REAL OR WE AS THE HUMAN RACE ARE DOOMED. This is not a cute game we are playing...90% of the prophecies in your Bible are for OUR TIME! Some may laugh and scoff--but when it REALLY HAPPENS, it will be TOO LATE to regret it then! But be of good courage. GOD WILL STOP THE MADNESS and usher in peace--REAL PEACE! And YOU my dear can be there to HELP!

Wait for God to tell you. I am a Christian, but would say to search around for something that speaks to you.

The main predictions concerning the Messiah are that he will bring peace to the world, gather the Jewish people from their exile to the land of Israel and rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem. After Jesus' appearance, the Temple was destroyed, the Jews were exiled all over the world and we have not even had one day of peace in the past 2,000 years. (Many of the wars in fact were started and fought by followers of Jesus) These events are enough to show that he was not the messiah.\n\nThe main Christian responses to these objections are:\n\n   1. The Second Coming - First of all, we find this to be a contrived answer, since there is no mention of a second coming in the Jewish Bible. Second, why couldn't G-d accomplish His goals the first time round. Most importantly, the second coming idea is just an attempt at answering an obvious question but it certainly does not constitute proof of messianic claims.\n\n   2. There is peace within his followers hearts - That is wonderful for them, but does that help the victims of the Inquisition, the Crusades, the Hundred Years War, the First World War, the Second World War etc. In each of the events that I mentioned most if not all the combatants, the violent oppressors and torturers where people who claimed to be followers of Jesus. And is peace in the heart a fulfillment of "swords into plowshares etc."

Yes, the time is nigh. That is if your referring to the second coming. They were expecting Christ to return even in the early church and that was 2000 years ago. Just imagine how close we are now!

We will not know the day or time that He is coming: but He is coming for sure (and honestly, vey soon). That is why we should always be prepared.\n\nPlease take note:\n\nOh, I know, some of you don't believe in such things. You think it's just a bunch of silly superstition. Even some Christians don't believe in the Second Coming. Many prefer I stick to writing about news events of the physical world rather than arcane spiritual matters. \n\nBut, as a journalist, I can't ignore hard evidence – no matter where it may lead me. And the more I study the prophetic scriptures of the Holy Bible and look at the condition of our world today, the more convinced I become that we are nearing that time. In fact, I think we are very close. \n\nFor just as Jesus' virgin birth in Bethlehem was foretold by the Hebrew prophets hundreds of years earlier, so, too, was His return to Earth predicted. The only question is when. \n\nThe most dramatic evidence for His imminent return our generation has witnessed was the rebirth of the nation of Israel more than 50 years ago. The Jews, God's chosen people, were, as prophesied, scattered over the whole earth for nearly two millennia beginning shortly after Jesus' death on the cross. Yet, in my opinion, the scriptures leave no doubt that the Jewish state would exist once again before He returned. \n\nInterestingly, Orthodox Jews have long taught that the world would last for 6,000 years before the Messiah would come and usher in a 1,000-year period of restful human history. Since God created the world in six days, according to Genesis 1:31, and rested on the seventh day, according to Genesis 2:1, they reasoned the world's history would climax the same way. They cite Psalms 90:4, which says: "For a thousand years in Thy sight are like yesterday when it passes by." \n\nLikewise, Christians have looked to II Peter 3:8: "But do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day." \n\nThe early church understood this "six-day theory" of world history. It was widely accepted teaching for the first three centuries of the church. From the time of Adam, we've got genealogical records to show that 4,000 years passed until the time of Christ. From Jesus' time until the present age represents another 2,000 years for a total of 6,000 years or six days. \n\nThere's also a three-day theory: Jesus rose on the third day. Would the beginning of the third millennium – or thousand-year period – not be the likely time for His return to earth? There is even strong scriptural evidence for such a theory provided in Hosea 6:2: "After two days will he revive us: in the third day He will raise us up, and we shall live in His sight." Note that this prophecy is not about the Resurrection of Jesus, it's either about the resurrection of Israel after 2,000 years of dispersal or the physical return of the Lord. \n\nIn 1772, Edward Gibbons published "The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire," in which he cites early documents suggesting the Christian disciples of the first century were taught that Jesus would return after 2,000 years. We'll soon find out if they were right. \n\nFor many reasons, I believe Jesus is returning soon. But I'm especially drawn to II Timothy 3:1-5, which describes the state of the world in the "last days." Tell me if this doesn't sound like our world: \n\nBut realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these. \nTo

Christ will return visibly, with a loud command.\n\nThere will be an unmistakable cry from an angel.\n\nThere will be a trumpet fanfare such as has never been heard.\n\nBelievers in Christ who are dead will rise from their graves.\n\nBelievers who are alive will be caught up in the clouds to meet Christ.\n\nRev. 16:14-16 (NKJV)  \n    For they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. [15] "Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame." [16] And they gathered them together to the place called in Hebrew, Armageddon. \n___________\n\nAs far as quitting everything to follow some guy that says he is the Christ...\n\nMatthew 24:23-27 (NKJV)  \n    Then if anyone says to you, 'Look, here is the Christ!' or 'There!' do not believe it. [24] For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. [25] See, I have told you beforehand. [26] Therefore if they say to you, 'Look, He is in the desert!' do not go out; or 'Look, He is in the inner rooms!' do not believe it. [27] For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

1) No.  Jesus will come the second time.  (That doesn't sound right)\n2) Because.\n3) Salvation\n4) Stay away from everything that will cause you to sin, and pray constantly, asking for strength and courage\n5) Because memory is not genetic.
