Predicting When Does the World End Theology Gets Another Bad Rap
Apocalypse Now, when does the world end? We hear it all the time. Are we truly living in the end times revelation prophetic era? Many believe that we are?
In fact, based on John Hagee’s now debunked four blood moon theory and the Shimetah prophecies of Jonathan Cahn, September was supposed to be the magical month.
However, nothing happened. This is business as usual. Prophecy pundits predict a series of events and create hype. The people engage in end times hysteria.
Then the inevitable occurs. Nothing happens. We have end of the world 2012, End of the world 2013, and now end of the world 2015. Which of these qualify for the Rapture or the second coming of Christ?
One website tells us that Nasa has figured out how the world will end? They claim it will result from the sun going out. I’m yet trying to figure out how the world be be burned up with fire if the sun goes out. Something doesn’t ad up.
2 Peter 3:7 And the End of Heaven and Earth
Interestingly enough, 2 Peter 3:7 is a prophecy about the end of the world according to the Bible. Yet, many who want to know when ignore the wealth stored up in that text. For this reason, we have a series of videos on 2 Peter 3 that gives viewers the information needed to make an intelligent decision.
There are all sorts of time clues in both, the First Epistle of Peter and the Second Epistle.
In this video we identify one of the motifs Peter uses to identify the world that was about to be destroyed. This is one of a series of four videos designed to lead the viewer through a process of steps in interpretation of apocalyptic bible prophecy themes.

If the Great White Throne judgment happened in 70 AD, when are men judged as faithful, or to have kept the Lord’s sayings (Jn 8:51)? If, as you say, we have eternal life now, when is there an accounting of our lives? I think there are a number of scriptures that indicate we will have to give an account of ourselves, but with this new insight on the “final” judgment being past, I’m confused. Many have “said the prayer” and later gone back to living very ungodly lives.
I think the underlying assumption here is that eternal life is unconditional during our physical existence. The implied condition is ‘keeps my word’ and thus such a man never sees death. If however one apostatizes then it nullifies the promise.
