Is it much closer than before?

I thought a common understanding is the end times will come 70 years after the independence of Israel?Originally posted by jnwk:
Do you think we are living in a century which is much more closer to the end times than before?
Also .. according to the Days of Noah .. no plentiful harvest after the recent red snow. Maybe the most recent one is the last red snow. So the endtimes will come around 1948 + 70 = ? so maybe next time red snow comes it is endtimes liao. Just about right the time interval. -

Yes, Jesus is indeed coming again & very quickly with all the signs pointing to His coming. I hope most of you all have seen what is happening in the news around the world but if you haven't or don't have time, pls take some time to read up. Pls read what Jesus said to His disciples regarding the end times in the gospels esp Matthew. Everything said has happened or are happening at an increasing frenzy. Even S'pore isn't spared from earthquakes. Many ppl from my blk ran downstairs during the shaking last yr. I felt the big tremor but went back to sleep anyway bcos I know Christ will keep me safe & if i were to die, i will go up. Nobody knows the hour or time so don't try to calculate bcos u just won't be able to. God is God & He is supreme. He won't share His glory with us. Only God the Father knows the time. & He is very holy. Nothing unholy or sinful can stand in His sight bcos all evil will b burned up. Now is the end of the end times. So take heed how you walk.Originally posted by Icemoon:I thought a common understanding is the end times will come 70 years after the independence of Israel?

Just as in my earlier post, we wont be able to know the exact time. He might just come much earlier than anyone expect. It's ok to have fun but pls keep in mind that we can only be saved by the blood of Jesus. & if we are truly saved, will we wallow in sinful fun w/c is not right in God's sight?Originally posted by maggot:1948 + 70 = 2018

Yes, the red snow thingy may be a sign. We will have to keep watching because no one knows.
I believe more signs will be appearing soon. The false prophet coming to Singapore is one sign le. -
This generation shall by no means pass away until Jesus comes again. The generation in Jesus' time passed away but only the Temple & Israel were destroyed so the end came to them. So only partial fulfillment. So which gen was He referring to for the 2nd Coming? Our generation bcos Israel is a nation again in the Mideast! And one generation is usually 70-80 yrs according to David's lifespan then & according to Psalm 90 by Moses w/c stated man can only live 70-80 y.o. under law. Read it for yourself. I believe b4 the last person from this gen dies, He will come again!Originally posted by happyharvest:I never heard of this understanding of the end times leh. sigh.... maybe I'm too ignorance....

The signs of the end times can be found in the gospels, Daniel & other prophetic bks like Revelation etc & thruout the Bible even in Paul's letters like 1&2 Thessalonians. Pls read up if u r interested. False prophets r also signs. So beware & WATCH carefully. God bless u. -
Can you tell me which date you think Jesus is returning? It is really frightening yet feel excited of His coming. Dunno why.... But I still have things not done yet....

[No] Your will be done! Glory be to God. -
Nobody can tell the date lah. Just concentrate on doing your work well & be nice to people whenever u can. Nobody is sinless here on earth. Be more forgiving as God has also forgiven u. Help the poor & needy like old folks, handicapped etc whenever u can in whatever way possible. Maybe u r still very young & happy go lucky w/c is nothing wrong. Go enjoy life but pls spread a bit of your love to others as well esp to family members. We might not have the time to say we love them until too late. Say u love them now even if they don't like to be mushy or they r unlovable.Originally posted by happyharvest:Can you tell me which date you think Jesus is returning?

[No] Your will be done! Glory be to God. Hug all that u love & embrace life with vigour bcos Jesus is coming again to remove all pain & sorrow & sickness & death. No more separation from our parents or loved ones. We can hug them forever! God is not here to destroy the righteous but the evildoers who refuse to repent. They r the ones burned up with no chance of heaven on earth bcos there will be 1000 yrs of heaven on earth i believe until the devil rebels again after that & then the old earth & heaven are no more.
God is kind. Why can't he allow u to complete what u r doing? Anyway, heaven is so much better than earth. No more pain, sickness, cancer, death, broken relationships, eternal life to do all that we ever wanted bcos do u know we can eat in heaven? I am hoping for the day when i can drink the best red wine & makan the best beef steak & shark's fins with abalone but i was wondering myself-Is God vegetarian?? Hahaha... -

I think that this prophecy interpretation is quite interesting.
It takes abt 70 years (roughly) for the Isarel and the temple to be destroyed. Then it take another 70 years (roughly) for Israel to be re-built. Then probably, it takes another 70 years (roughly) for the 3rd temple to be re-built. And so, Jesus is returning in another 70 years (roughly) from the date Isarel is formed. And we have 3 x 70. Oh dear, this remain me of the book Daniel.
The bottomline is: No one knows the exact date. -

And where would the birthplace of jesus be, the next time he comes?

First, Jesus come to rapture the Church.Originally posted by shade343:And where would the birthplace of jesus be, the next time he comes?
"For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever" (1Thessalonians 4:16-17).
The Second Coming of Christ will not occur until after certain other end times events take place (2 Thessalonians 2:4; Matthew 24:15-30; Revelation chapters 6-18 ). The Rapture is imminent, it could take place at any moment (Titus 2:13; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; 1 Corinthians 15:50-54). The Second Coming would be the second literal return of Christ to earth as King in power and glory to rule for a thousand years. It was Christ who first announced His future return after He told His own of His certain death. Those who witnessed Christ ascension into heaven after His death heard the angels declare in Acts 1:11, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in just the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven."
The Rapture is the removal of believers from the earth as an act of deliverance (1 Thessalonians 4:13-17; 5:9). The Second Coming includes the removal of unbelievers as an act of judgment (Matthew 24:40-41). -
your question like still not answered .. hahaOriginally posted by shade343:And where would the birthplace of jesus be, the next time he comes? -
No birthplace because the next time He comes will be in all His Glory... as a ruler and a King and not a babe.Originally posted by Icemoon:your question like still not answered .. haha -
Behold He comes! Riding on the clouds!
Shining like the sun! At the trumpet call
Lift your voice! It's the year of Jubilee!
And out of Zion's hill salvation comes!

I thought I have answered his questions. There is no birth place lar. Can't you see it in my answer. -
I personally feel Pastor Prince might be going overboard in this, calling God by His most holy name. God is very holy. We must take care not to call out His name in vain. Just to be safe. U don't know who is in the big audience. There might be immature Christians there who start mouthing YHWH indiscrimately or who treat grace lightly or dont understand what is grace at all.Originally posted by Icemoon:YHWH - yuy hay wa (va?) hay .. haha .. should be how to pronounce the individual letters. I remember that is almost how NCC's Prince mouthed the words. Maybe the new moderator can comment?
But then the Hebrew Bible (even the modern ones with cosonants and vowels) never write Yahweh. Jews call God 'Hashem' (the name) in songs and Adonai in the OT.

I agree. I think they are trying to imitate faith like people trying to imitate the behaviour of their favourite idol.Originally posted by John The Baptist:I personally feel Pastor Prince might be going overboard in this, calling God by His most holy name.
