The End of the World?
The times that we are living in are unlike any
that we’ve seen before. Leaders of our country,
businessmen, people who have positions
of trust and authority, are all looking at the
condition of our nation—and of the world—
and wondering what’s going to happen next.
Everyone’s watching the headlines. They’re
looking at the unsettled conditions of society
and foreign relations, and they watch as natural
disasters destroy homes and cities from the
poorest to the wealthy. They cringe as the news
reports show the decay of morality. They see
the intensity that accompanies everything we
are seeing today, and they seem to understand
that big things are about to happen—things
that will change the course of history. People
want to know: Are we coming to the end?
There always seems to be a new theory
about when or how the world will end. Around
the turn of the millennium, people were saying
that the world would end in the year 2000.
Obviously it didn’t. People also wondered
about the year 2012 and the Mayan Calendar.
There are a lot of theories out there, but there
has never been a more reliable book to turn to
for accurate prophecies than the Bible.
