The End of the World Predictions by Bill Wilson

There have been a lot of predictions lately about the end of the world or the Rapture coming this weekend or in the next few weeks. Now what I'm about to say will upset some, but if it upsets you, please read your Bibles in context rather than reading what someone wrote about these topics or watching what they said about them. Go directly to the source and study it for yourself.

You can do that. These predictions call into question whether Jesus Christ is true, whether the Bible is true, or if it is all a lie.

Ever think about that? Many of those who are making predictions about the signs in heavens based on numerology or selecting a single verse out of the Bible are ignoring entire aspects of Christ and the prophets.

 

When these events that they predict don't happen, it is because the predictors are wrong, not because God or Jesus delayed or tarried.

What did Jesus say in the Olivet Discourse about the end times?

First, he said, "Take heed that no man deceive you."

Then he went on to list chronologically what would happen in the end of days: Beginning of sorrows, betrayal, persecution, deception by false prophets, gospel preached to all the nations, the Abomination of Desolation spoken of by Daniel, great tribulation, more deception, sun and moon darkened after the tribulation of those days, Son of man comes in the clouds of heaven, the gathering of his elect, two in the field with one taken, we all should be ready.

 

The Apostle Paul paints a similar picture in II Thessalonians 2:

"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition...so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God."

This is very clear:

1) don't be deceived

2) falling away

3) antichrist (beast) revealed

4) sits in the temple as God.

Daniel 9, of which Christ speaks, is similar:

1) Antichrist appears

2) covenant confirmed

3) temple sacrifice ceases

4) overspreading of abominations

5) temple made desolate by antichrist.

 

The Apostle John gives a very detailed account of the same events in Revelation. Other prophets are also consistent:

Isaiah

Jeremiah

Ezekiel

Joel

and more.

I am not debating what you believe. I am pointing out what the Bible says in context. In terms of these predictors of the end of the world, and their often complex "biblical" narratives and teachings.

Wouldn't it make sense for you, yourself, to check them out and see what they say according to the Holy Scriptures?

You don't need some guy with the gift of gab to tell you what he thinks the Bible means. He won't stand in your place before the Lord. Only you will.

Don't get mad at me, just read the Bible for yourself and ask the Lord to give you understanding.
