2012, Is the World About To End, or Is It a New World Without End?

There are many end time prophecies floating all about. Most are focused on the year 2012 which derived from many Pagan and religious prophecies. One says December 21, 2012 is the exact date for the end. Certainly all give the signs and symbols for their belief in the end.

Now just what are they talking about, the end of the earth and of this world forever or as we know it, two very different things. As Christians and as believers we know as fact that Christ says that the World will pass away BUT and here is that very big but, it shall be replaced with a new world. This new world will be seen coming down from heaven. The old will fade away and be replaced by the new, which will never end. In fact Christians believe in a World without End that the old will fade away and a new will take over.

Of course Christians realize that only God the father knows when, the date, the time, the hour. But Jesus Himself stated believers shall know when the end is NEAR and even at the door. Now we must never forget that God is not on any earth timetable or time. Therefore the warning is to be always ready.

Jesus also stated the signs and symbols to become aware of, as does the Word of God. We seem to forget God is The Word. Now I have written a number of articles concerning these signs and symbols. Yet these have just touched the surface. Certainly there are many prophecies from varied sources in and out of the church believers and non.

Now is this all crazy nonsense? Sure many skeptics will tell you exactly that and that is to be expected. Why, because they also fulfill prophecy. So when to pagans and seers speak of great signs in the heavens and on earth and men shall tremble in fear, is this the event they saw? Did they somehow see the coming of the Lord and because they were practicing evil were these not from the Devil? Even he is aware his time is near an end so why wouldn’t he pass distortions to cover just what the truth is? It is the Devils plan to sow doubt, fear, anxiety all elements we humans have.

Now Christians say that the wicked will seek to hide from this end in caves and under rocks but they shall not be safe. That a great cataclysmic event is prophesized there is no doubt. Even scientists today recognize the possibility of a cosmic disaster. Will it happen as sated is another matter as yet to be seen.

So the Christians speak of the end times with the Rapture or return of Christ from heaven to take His believers away to be with Him in the clouds until, ok and I will say this again, until this great horror and events that befall the earth come to fruition. That is war, sickness, famine and every form of evil.

Frankly, there are many perspectives on that as well. But that aside the fact is there will be a new world is what believers know. They know Jerusalem and Israel hold the key to all the events and they are looking for a few more signs and symbols to fall into place for the clock to begin its final ticking.

Now in Divine Mercy, Saint Faustina spells out that we are in the last days. Fatima cries out that Russia and will spread her woes. The prophesy of the Popes speaks to the end times. Daniel and the Apocalypse speak to the events as yet to unfold.

Yet skeptics say these things mentioned have already happened. That Nero was the Antichrist 666. Yet, they forget that many things were not in place as yet. That Israel had to be restored after 2000 years [that’s another interesting study]. That Iran [Persia] and the Arabs were to play a role. This article can turn into multiple books but the BOOK; the Bible is all one needs.

So when we pray we say “World without end, AMEN! When believers look and study the signs and symbols of the times we live in We come to the realization that is real possible the end of this world as we know it is near. Can it be the birth of these trials and the end is further off? However, do not forget that it does not for believers mean the end of the world just as we know it. It just means, even while the scoffers laugh and cynics sneer that they too are a fulfillment of the signs and that only God will bring it to fulfillment on the day and hour He means it to be done.

So if you have read this you are evidently interested. Could it be the spirit of God moving you, skepticism or whatever you deem it is. The fact is if you look you will find and you will understand. It is not that hard when you look at the signs and symbols all about and relate to the Word.

God Bless and keep looking. Remeber if they say God is here, do not go , if they say he is there, do not go , if someone performs great signs and wonders as to decieve even the elect do not believe . Because there is just one fact you should never forget and tell your loved ones. Look to the East, for as lightning flashes from East to West so does the coming of the Son of Man. Amen!
