Are we living in the end times?

For those who have come to think that America gets eliminated before the final prophecies are fulfilled, are you expecting the rapture beforehand?

I'm expecting the rapture!

I know no one who thinks America will vanish before the end times or the Rapture; it's certainly not Biblical. ???

What prophecies exactly are you referring to needed to preceed the rapture?

FINEM RESPICE ~ MEMENTO MORI

I'm not suggesting there are or aren't any prophecies that need to be fulfilled prior to a pre-tribulation rapture.
I'm aware that many Christians have come to think that the US doesn't have a place in scriptural prophecies of the end times tribulations. And, that the US gets eliminated from the world scene.

So what I asked was "For those who have come to think that America gets eliminated before the final prophecies are fulfilled, are you expecting the rapture beforehand?"

Many years ago, not long after 911, my wife asked me what I thought about the US not being in end time prophecy.......oddly enough what came out of my mouth nearly instantaneously was that we either would sustain a series of planned internal attacks or civil war woud prevent any significant contribution to defend Israel or participate in the battle at Armageddon? I honestly still haven't had an epiphany or revelation as did John regarding end times.

I ask again. If one is saved and Heaven is their home what difference does any of this make? Or is this just a subject just to see what some can conjure up in their minds to talk about?

I can only answer for myself but I wonder about and like to discuss a lot of things that aren't absolutely essential to my everyday life. I suppose that's conjuring???

Let use. Digging up. Concocting. Envoking. Pondering. Imagining or a whole host of terms.
Possibly could add dream up. Interpret as. Misunderstand.

I would say invoking and conjuring woud be synonyms.

I believe in my lacking knowledge of things to have knowledge in that there are synonyms for many of the words we use. There is a synonym for synonym I believe.

Been thinking about this.

I believe your wife is wrong. I believe America is in end time prophecy, we just aren't mentioned by name but neither is any other country or city except Israel and Jerusalem. Anything after that is a guess.

When believing gentiles read the Bible it's easy to forget that it's the broad history of the Jewish people, not world history. The Bible is not about the world except in the general sense of all humanity and how we personally relate to Jesus' Jewish brothers.

I believe it's worth noting that if modern American progressive-liberal-woke-socialist-academic-"news"-entertainment-political (aka,"Democrat" and "RINO") establishments are allowed to continue jamming their amoral paradise down our throats the coming end of the USA will match that of Rome and Sodom. I'm not happy about that but I can't help it.

Thankfully, what happens to America really doesn't matter a lot to me and my family 'cause when the Rapture comes we're outta here!

[Good Cheer]

It was Billy Graham's wife I think that once commented on our condition saying something to the effect that if God didn't strike America then He would owe an apology to Sodom. Wonder what she would have said now.

By the way, in the political section I posted link to the latest (March 7th) letter from Archbishop Vigano concerning what is being done globally. What it boils down to is this is the setting up of the evil end times globalists' kingdom for their god. We're here.

This isn't going to be Star Trek world and a whoopty-do glorious future of mankind. No, this isn't going to be pretty.
Intellectually I can look at this and understand why people shut down their brains. Because it's really scary stuff.
But still, why people don't get it and face it and openly accept the reality of it is just absolutely beyond me.
This is where Faith Street and Meat Street intersect.

OK, end of rant. I know a lot of people don't see it that way. To me it's just undeniable so yeah, I have to face it.

Makes me want to look again at what happens in the last days according to Genesis 49 and the healing of the deadly wound to the system.

Time to make that happen.

Anyone thought about the solar instability the bible speaks of?

Okay. ???

But, to what "it" are you referring?
