When is christian judgement day and end of the world?

Question

Ive heard by an american christian and bible researcher that judgement day is may 21 2011, and world will end october21 2011. When is judgement day/end of world in christianity?

Answer 1

No one knows.



This sounds like the prophecy of Harold Camping who says the world will end on May 21, 2011. No responsible Christian leaders are supporting this "prophecy."



Harold Camping has already been wrong once (about September 6, 1994). If he had lived in Old Testament times, he would have been stoned to death as a false prophet. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2010/01/01/BA8V1AV589.DTL#ixzz0bUY9WWOp



"But of that day or hour, no one knows, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Be watchful! Be alert! You do not know when the time will come." (Mark 13:32-33)



Jesus told us in no uncertain terms that we were not to know when the end of the world would come but that we were always to be ready.



Each new Christian denomination seems to worry about the end of the world a bit too much. Then after a couple of centuries, they realize that there are always wars and rumors of wars, etc.



I won't even mention the hundreds of false predictions of the end of the world over the centuries, all of which were based on individual interpretations of biblical prophecies.



The first century Christian Church thought that Jesus was going to return at any moment. Only after a couple of centuries did the Church realize that it may be 2,000 or 4,000 or 8,000 years before Jesus returns.



The Catholic Church wisely follows Jesus' advice and teaches that each of us should live as if we will meet our maker in the next ten minutes and that we need to work to make the world a better place for our 100 X great-grandchildren.



Do not worry about the end of the world. Trust God to make sure everything happens to plan. Just be ready to meet God at any time.

Matthew 24:36-42= “Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father. 37 For just as the days of Noah were, so the presence of the Son of man will be. 38 For as they were in those days before the flood, eating and drinking, men marrying and women being given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark; 39 and they took no note until the flood came and swept them all away, so the presence of the Son of man will be. 40 Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken along and the other be abandoned; 41 two women will be grinding at the hand mill: one will be taken along and the other be abandoned. 42 Keep on the watch, therefore, because YOU do not know on what day YOUR Lord is coming.



Not even Jesus knows, only his Father Jehovah

Answer 3

No one knows the day nor the hour. Here are some of the signs though in the second scripture.



(Matthew 24:36) “Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father.



(Matthew 24:1-14) Departing now, Jesus was on his way from the temple, but his disciples approached to show him the buildings of the temple. 2 In response he said to them: “Do YOU not behold all these things? Truly I say to YOU, By no means will a stone be left here upon a stone and not be thrown down.” 3 While he was sitting upon the Mount of Olives, the disciples approached him privately, saying: “Tell us, When will these things be, and what will be the sign of your presence and of the conclusion of the system of things?” 4 And in answer Jesus said to them: “Look out that nobody misleads YOU; 5 for many will come on the basis of my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will mislead many. 6 YOU are going to hear of wars and reports of wars; see that YOU are not terrified. For these things must take place, but the end is not yet. 7 “For nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be food shortages and earthquakes in one place after another. 8 All these things are a beginning of pangs of distress. 9 “Then people will deliver YOU up to tribulation and will kill YOU, and YOU will be objects of hatred by all the nations on account of my name. 10 Then, also, many will be stumbled and will betray one another and will hate one another. 11 And many false prophets will arise and mislead many; 12 and because of the increasing of lawlessness the love of the greater number will cool off. 13 But he that has endured to the end is the one that will be saved. 14 And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come.



(2 Timothy 3:1-5) But know this, that in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here. 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, self-assuming, haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, disloyal, 3 having no natural affection, not open to any agreement, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness, 4 betrayers, headstrong, puffed up [with pride], lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of godly devotion but proving false to its power; and from these turn away.

(2 Timothy 3:13) But wicked men and impostors will advance from bad to worse, misleading and being misled.

That day came and went a very long time ago. And just as Jesus himself said, no man knew the exact day or hour. But it was the point at which God decided that his Christian church was large and stable enough to sustain itself for eternity. It was then that God's plan was concluded in perfection. And it was a spiritual event. People that look for literal fulfillment of this will be sorely disappointed.

Answer 5

Only God knows but it is going to be prob sometime in this century. Some people say 21st Dec 2012 but there is nothing in the bible to support this date. Jesus says it could be anytime ' like a thief in the night' however the increase in Floods, earthquakes, murders, wars are ALL 'child birth' signs towards the end of the world & i dont know about you bout the recent floods in Oz. Mudslides in Brazil etc are all signs to me!

Luckily i accepted the free gift of salvation last year so i have nothing to worry about... i feel Gods peace in my heart so i know when this sinful world is wrapped up ill be ok, ill be in eternity with other brothers & sisters 'in' christ ! thank god for jesus, if it wasnt for him we'd all perish.

Answer 7

Rev 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

20:7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,

20:8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.

20:9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.

20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

20:11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.

20:12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.



Or in this manner....judgment comes AFTER Christ has reigned 1,000 years here on earth.

Answer 8

Please be conscious that there is a risk of a extensive distinction between what multiple religions have confidence is "fairly going to take place", and what's going to take place. possibly the international won't end as multiple religions anticipate. 40-six printed predictions have already been shown incorrect, with the aid of the straightforward actuality that the international continues to be here. You and your chum might have examine numbers 40 seven & 40 8 in what in any different case ought to be very clever classes to non-public religious progression.
