Parts of the world will outstretch their carrying capacities and as their people starve and the poor steal & squabble amongst themselves, these countries cast their jealous eyes on other countries. Wars break out, nukes start flying and we all die (or at least most of us).

Originally posted by danielnovacoviciNo not that I can say, sorry. But it's for sure man isn't doing a very good job at protecting our future so I think God will do better in his due time.
So, we are again at this: the bible is true because is the bible. Do you have a good news for me? ...since I don't believe in god and bible.

Well IF we believe the biblical account then eventually Jesus will return and establish a kingdom on the earth. This is where it gets to the squabbling between JW's and Christendom. Also it does say that God will destroy this present earth and apparently universe with a melting of the elements but God will also create a new heavens and earth. Tells us G-75 what you think? I think people get too caught up on this "End is near" and stop living in the now.

Originally posted by menace71One needs to reason on the many scriptures I quoted earlier where it says the earth we are on now will be here forever. And as you know there are many scriptures that speak of events that are figurative and not literal. So if the scriptures I quoted are true, then the ones that your referring to have to be figuative in the sense that a cleansing of the two, heavens and earth, of wicked ones both physical and spiritual is what that means. If the literal heavens and earth are destroyed then what would happen to all the inhabitants of both? And why would it necassary to destroy them both? God did not have to destroy the earth in the past but he used the flood to do a cleansing of sorts at that time.

Originally posted by rwingettReminds me of a joke:
Eventually the sun will explode.
A cosmologist was giving a public lecture in which he said that the sun would die out, and life on earth along with it, in about a billion years. A man in the lecture hall put his head in his hands, and groaned loudly: “Oh no! That’s awful.”
“Well, yes, I suppose so,” the cosmologist said. “But I did say it won’t be for another billion years.”
“Oh, that’s better!” the man replied, obviously cheered up. “I thought you said a million years!”
