The latest in Dr. Tabor's end time prophecies series.
Something My pastor said in a message a while back about Peter saying a day is a 1000 years and a 1000 years is a day to the LORD. We should know the season is near as we are nearing the end of the 6th 1000 years. So math. Jesus came and died at the end of the 4th 1000. For 2000 years we've been the age of grace. The church age. If Jesus birth marks the beginning of the 5th 1000 and he died and rose in AD32 or so, then the previous 4000 (before Christ) plus 2000 (church age) add his life of 32 years, and we get 2032. Subtract a 7 year tribulation and that would place the rapture at approximately 2025.
We may not know that day or the hour, But, as Jesus wept when he entered Jerusalem, and said they did not know or recognize the day of their visitation. Scholars have looked at the days and He entered the city precisely on the day that was prophesied.
So we too should know or be able to know the season of His coming. (not the day)

Remember David Wilkerson? Some or perhaps most will find his preaching offensive these days.
I think he was sincere, including what he said God had shown him. And of the things he said God had shown him, much is already happened and gone by now, accepted parts of the world we now live in.
Hope some can enjoy his vision as described in 1973.

This all goes to show you how much faith plays a role in our beliefs. Do I hang on every word of any man, of course not! I think Tabor is out in left field on some things, but he offers some very logical ponderences on ancient archeological text and thinking. If we want to pat each other on the back and say, "you got it figured out", I guess that's OK, however, there are others who view the same scripture, and see a completely different picture.
I remember well the preaching during the early 70s, it wasn't just David Wilkerson, preaching about what was coming for the Church if we went down the roads we where looking to go down as a country. Looking back, they where almost all fulfilled! Just like in the early 70s, you don't need a miraculous vision to see where we're heading.
The origin of this thread, Are we living in the end times? Yes we are! If the world ends in today, in 2025, 2032, or 3220, we are living in the end times.
Our living in the fig tree generation seems to be a blind spot for many.
Perhaps it deserve a thread of its own.
My wife and I often wonder; how much worse can it get? The story of Lot tells of the condition of Sodom, and I'm pretty sure we're pretty close. I look forward to HIS soon return!

I think it could be a good idea. Want us to do that? Would you have much to say on the topic?
