Bible prophesies are 100% accurate in telling us to watch what happens in and around Israel. This is a major prophesy on the times we live in. There are many many more.\nA new world will be coming soon..this one is seeped in evil and darkness and its almost time for things to change \nforever. There is so much more to add to this but only so much space.

No one is able to predict the exact time or date of the Worlds' end, but how and why has been known for nearly 2000 years.\nWhen Jesus Christ comes to judge the wicked and reward the righteous is when the world as we know it will end.\nI say, the sooner the better, because this world is a junkyard, and the new one is gonna be great!

No, I dont believe the world will end until our sun collapses. Of course, that says nothing about the human race, which may or may not be long since extinct by then. While our species and many others will vanish, there will always be life on earth to the end, even if it's just archaebacteria.

December 21, 2012.  But it doesn't say the world will end... it's just marked as an important date, possibly the end of "a creation", but it's not at all clear what they thought would happen.  And the math is arguably way off.  Check the article I've cited from Wikipedia, it's impressive and thorough.

I don't know. This is why the world will end, because people are greedy, then someguy tired of greed is gonna put it all to an end. Talk about "Calm Like A Bomb" by Rage Against The Machine.

This is a very philosophical question in that to answer it, you need to define what is meant by the world ending.\n\nIf by the world ending, you mean the end of the human race, then the answer is simple.  All humans will die.  The question was not asked how though.\n\nIf by end of the world, you are speaking literally of the world::Earth, then most likely the Earth will burn up in the sun when our sun expands out in search of fuel before dying out.  The sun is expected to go out as far as possibly Mars when this happens and thus, that would be the end of the 'world'.\n\nIf you are a teenager, then the end of the world for you might be when you get seen getting out of your family's minivan in front of the school and you mom yells out the window, in front of all your friends, "Love you hunny!  Have a good day!"

yes, I have heard of these predictions, but no, I do not believe the world will end then. \n\nPeople have been predicting the end of the world since the beginning of time or at least the beginning of Christianity. The bible does not predict the end as far as the actual date, but the New Testament writers believed it would happen in their day or very soon.\n\nEven John opened the book of Revelation with the remark that these things must soon come to pass. \n\nI am only 54 and in my short life I have seen the end of the world dates come and go 4 times just off the top of my head and more that I would have to think about. \n\nBack in 1991 with the first Iraq war people used Nostradamus predictions to claim that 1991 was the year would end. \n\nthose predictions are so vague that anyone can interpret them in any way. \nas far as the Mayans, some believe they meant the end of the world in 2012 while others believe that it predicts a great change similar to that which destroyed the dinosaurs. There again it is dependent on interpretation.

Sorry... but God's word is plain about the end times... no one knows and if someone says they know, they are not to be believed. It's going to come like a thief in the night and you aren't going to know even a second before it happens!\n\nWe all know it's coming... but will you be ready when it does?

Which 'end of the world' talk? Personally, I'm annoyed by all the 'blue sky' people who think that "someone will save us". There are a lot of bad things going on in the world right now, and most of them involve people not paying attention to what their neighbors, their bosses, their government, and their children are doing with the resources which will be needed in the future by whoever is left after the wars, diseases, and starvation get done, not to mention climate changes. The blind faith in 'systems of failed systems', growth economics, religious happiness, and voluntary ignorance is leading our species down a path of self-consumption. Is the 'world' going to end? Probably not, but TWAWKI (the world as we know it) will be changing drastically. Expecting things to stay the way they are or get better by doing what we usually do is kind of, well, "Life for Dummies."\nIf you aren't outraged, you aren't paying attention.

People have been predicting the end of time since the beginning of time.  Life is too short to worry about the end of the world, worry about the end of your life because it will probably happen first!

I believe the end of the world as we know it will actually happen in our life times and it has already started.\n\nI know we have survived 2 World Wars already, but do you think we could all really survive a 3rd with nukes.  The US is the most powerfull country in the world and they are starting to flex some of that muscle around. Eventually the rest of the countries of the world will fight back. It will end up being a nuclear war, which would cause the end to us all even if we are to survive the war. This theorie in my opinion is even confermed in Revolations. War, plague, pestalence, ect.\n\nYes, I totally believe this.

Another fun fact! There's an amazing german song that translates to "Until the end of the world"\n\nI'm looking forward to the end of SOMETHING so I can either be proved very wrong (turns out there is a God) or very right (humans will kill themselves off somehow and in their last momments believe it's God's doing)

many believe that the advances in weapons technology have created a ticking time bomb that, upon detonation, will ultimately result in the destruction of the earth.\n\nif people don't do something to "end the world," the sun will eventually expand, consuming the planet.\n\nbut perhaps by that point, our world won't be limited to the earth, and we'll be indifferent to the catastrophe.

I think a more pertanant question would be are YOU ready for the world to end?

end times is not the same as the earth will be done away compleatly.  i agree that it'll be here forever.\n\nthe end times is about the end of satan's run.\n\nthe BIBLE is alive, so, no it wont be old fashioned.
