The end is near!
At least according to the few, the proud and the paranoid. Anyways, don't things seem to be lining up quite handily?
First we're about to bomb the living heck out of Iraq and we all know that this is going to precipitate World War III.
Second, a mystery plague is sweeping across the world. Granted, it's only infected maybe 300 people so far, a far cry from the millions people would expect with Armageddon around the corner, but it's a start, no?
I'm not one to go reading the Apocalypse into every little thing that is going on in the world today. I figure that the plague that wiped out about half of Europe's population in the Dark Ages as compared to some chicken flu killing a dozen people in Hong Kong, would have been more worthy of a "End Times" moment. Yet, we're all still here.
Personally? We should be living every day as it is were our last anyways. Do you know when the Lord is going to return? If not, shouldn't you be prepared? We don't know when he's going to return, probably because He didn't even know when He was going to return. So why do we keep standing at the door waiting for Him to come through the gate into our yard? This time is better spent cleaning your house for when He does come a-knockin!
