Originally posted by DarfiusI'm curious on your take as to why so many "end times" Christain writers keep updating and changing their accounts of the way the end times will happen. Aren't they just trying to make more money by selling more books based on fear?
God knows I have tried.
It's too bad you people are damning yourselves for no good reason.

"I don't want to appear arrogant but....."
because even if one hundreth of what you say is meaningful you still come across as a pompous five star a***hole.
If Bush gets elected to a third term, there are significant possibilities that the earth will no longer support human life by the end of the twenty-first century.
Aside from that, we have no more reason to believe that we are living in the end times that the author of the Revelation of John did in his day.
Remember William Miller!!
The End Times; I love it. It's like the action/thriller portion of the Bible. Once my Mom rented this movie from the Christian book store made in the 60's or 70's called "A Thief In The Night" which was absolutely brilliant/horrible. After the Rapture, every citizen had to get a stamp on their hand or forehead to show their loyalty to the "World Church". The funny part was the mark was just a binary readout of 666. Pretty creative, eh? I wonder if I can find a copy on eBay to laugh at...

I thank GOD, that HE, inspired you. Yes these are the Last Days, CHRIST is soon to come. You have tried, but do not stop. Only the Believers in JESUS CHRIST will hear and believe what has been written. Maintain the faith and trust that GOD has given you through JESUS CHRIST THE RISEN LORD.

Blasphemy would be common. Consider how often people use their Creator's name (God or Jesus Christ) as a curse word. What they have done is liken the One who is the source of every blessing (eyesight, sunsets, food, family, friends, etc.) to a four-letter curse word.
Fifty years ago, Hollywood seldom used God's name in vain.
Today, nearly every ...[text shortened]... rible 7 years in human history begin.
Grace be upon you all from the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.[

Since the Second Coming has not happened, does Darfius believe there are some people who are 2,000 years old who have not yet died? [Expected answer: "You cannot take that literally, see, you have to put it into context and..."]
But if it would make you happy, the Apostle John did SEE the end of the world. In Revelation. ๐
