Has anyone else found it interesting that as time goes on, crime as natural disasters seem to be happening more frequently? The bible talks about how events such as the ones occurring around us will let us know that the rapture is near. People that don't believe in God say that violence happens all around us and it's no different than it was 20 years ago but that isn't true. There have been an increasing number of deadly earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, fires, hurricanes, and just people shedding blood all over the place. And it's definently more frequently than it was even 10 years ago. Even the weather is weird. Does anybody else agree that it's impossible to explain everything happening except for what's in the bible. What do you think? ( really think it over first)

I have thought this for years. There are many who talk about the world news items in light of the Bible. Have you read the "Left Behind" books by Tim LaHaye?? I am re-reading them, and I find this so much more 'fact' than 'fiction'. Blessings and be ready.

I think your right that the ending times are coming. And the best way to explain it is in the Bible. I think about it actually a lot. Debating if we want to bring children into this world. Although they are protected by god I'm fearful that I may not teach them enough about god. And they would ahve to see these ending days. Or that the world is this bad now that what is it going to be like for our future or even theres.
Thank God he's a forgiving god...
I personally read a lot of fiction Christain books and that's how I get my word of god. I'm not good at reading the bible and most times I jsut don't understand some of it. But I do know that I am saved, I just have to ask for forgiveness often. I think that's what makes me fearful about these days ahead. What truly will happen....
