The "End is Near" has been prophesied ad naseum over the past 2000 years....starting with Simon Bar Gorea in 66AD...who saw the Jewish uprising against Rome as the start of end times.

Since then, people have regularly predicted it. Took this from Wikipedia...Hal Lindsay BTW said it would happen in 1988

At the very end of the list you will find that the Jewish Torah (First 5 Books of The Bible) predicts it to come in 2239 and be complate in 3239..but no one can be certain

God is the Alpha and Omega. He knew how His creation was going to end even before He created it... but, did it anyway. A more impressive speculation would be, "Why?"

If you can't show me the quote from Hal Lindsey, then you're just a member of a 40y/o rumor mill... Give it up.

"Orthodox Judaism" denies that Jesus is the Messiah and deletes any reference to Him from the Pentateuch... Nuff'said.

The very first point the Bible makes is that we are God's creation.
The rest of the Bible is about men creating lesser gods for themselves despite God's promise. Yep', people are idiots...
