    Well if my understanding is correct. The anti-christ will be as the wolf in sheeps clothing. And fool all but the elect, who follow Christ and study the Word of God, the Bible.
    Who knows when. Who know where. As the Bible says, in a round about way, if the man knew the thief was coming he wouldn't of left his house. Problem is with most thieves they know when your vulnerable. Or not at home.
    There has been many people who were false prophets already. And led many to their death. Jim Jones. Many thought of this man as a prophet of God. And he basically was a druggie. Who led a mass suicide in the name of Christ and as what Christ wanted? Yet those who followed him, never questioned him? Yet the Bible says, destroy not the temple of Christ. That temple as i take it, is your body.
    Like i said. Pays to read the Bible. Im not the most religious, but i've read it. And i know im not where i shoudl be, but i also know the signs of the times, of what the Bible calls the seven stages of the church.

    Agreed, but you will have to excuse me for using blue52, and deleting that post since it wasn't him. Hitler brought this world to its fastest and most productive state, but he had a few drawbacks. Sometimes I'm kinda a loner, but I"m gonna see things that matter my way and act accordingly. If the Lord had meant for it to be easy , He would have made it into a pill. That is just the way I am, and I do believe it might be coming up in the next generation, I hope he is a little faster , stronger and smarter- however that still wouldn't set the bar very high.

    I think we are definitely closer, based on the reading of the Bible than we were. At what stage i don't know. But look at the times and the way things are. It can't be long till something happens worldwide again.

    Yes and the internet is one of the final keys. I also think medicine will trigger events, cloning, creating life. And the amounts of blood spilled - some of that might be the blood of countries -oil- and that would put things in a different light.

    I love when people speculate and read into these things (whomever I hit reply to this isnt directed towards you I just hit reply) there is no way of knowing any of the answers. Many believed this and many believe that, some have speculated as early as a few days after Christ was on the cross the second coming was at hand, History is written on this simple idea. Each era claimed to be the end, with use Bible scripture as its enforcement. 1000, 2000, 3000, who knows. Thats the thing, no one does. And I shall paraphrase a piece I once heard, "Not the Angels in Heaven nor the Devils in Hell shall know the time of the second coming" and I say paraphase, that is no where exact nor it may not be close but its subject I know is. As I once heard a famous Bible scholar say, "Do not worry about the things you do not understand" also another idea once I heard. "Live yourlife as best as possible, worry not about what you cannot control, worry for what you can"
    You can say Pope this and Fruit Tree here, Until Solomons temple is being rebuilt, its all just ideas.

    And you're only ONE letter from "needs a WIFE" and that is a serpent- but it does make interesting conversation if folks don't beat each other to death with it. I do think it is a passing of events and not a tolling of time, not that it makes any difference. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

    ROME (Reuters) - Pope Benedict's ascent to the papacy took a conclave of 115 cardinals, four rounds of voting and followed a lifetime of service to the Vatican.

    But ask Internet doomsayers eyeing a 12th century Catholic prophecy and they'll tell you it was all stitched up more than eight centuries ago and that judgment day is nigh.

    The prophecy -- widely dismissed by scholars as a hoax -- is attributed to St. Malachy, an Irish archbishop recognized by members of the Church for his ability to read the future.

    Benedict, believers say, fits the description of the second-to-last pope listed under the prophecy before the Last Judgement, when the bible says God separates the wicked from the righteous at the end of time.

    "The Old Testament states: 'believe his prophets and you will prosper' -- so believe it. We are close to the return of the Judge of the nations. Christ is coming," wrote one Internet post by the Rev. Pat Reynolds.

    "Thank God for the witness of St. Malachy."

    St. Malachy was said to have had a vision during a trip to Rome around 1139 of the remaining 112 Popes. The new pope would be number 111 on that list, and is described in a text attributed to St. Malachy as the "Glory of the Olive."

    To connect Benedict, a pale, bookish German, to anything olive takes some imagination. But Malachy-watchers point to the choice of the name Benedict -- an allusion to the Order of Saint Benedict, a branch of which is known as the Olivetans.

    "When (he) chose the name Benedict XVI, this was seen as fulfilling the prophecy for this pope," wrote one entry on www.wikipedia.org.

    Benedict said that he chose the name partly in honor of Pope Benedict XV (1914-1922), calling him a "courageous prophet of peace." On Wednesday, Benedict dedicated his papacy to "the service of reconciliation and harmony between peoples."

    "Perhaps Benedict XVI will be a peacemaker in the Church or in the world, and thus carry the olive branch," speculated www.catholic-pages.com.

    Another site, www.bibleprobe.com, went even further, showing a picture of Benedict holding olive branches in March during Palm Sunday celebrations.

    "Is this the Pope of Peace (olive)?" it asked in the caption.

    Critics widely dismiss the Malachy prophecy as a forgery and possible propaganda meant to influence a 16th century conclave. Doses of skepticism even appear on the most energetic Malachy web pages.

    But believers point out similarities between the prophecy's descriptions and past pontificates. Pope John Paul II, number 110, was described in the prophecy as "de labore solis" -- or "of the labor of the sun."

    He was born on May 18, 1920, the same day as a solar eclipse. The pontiff was buried on April 8, 2005 -- the same day as a partial eclipse, visible in the Americas.

    More pressing for doomsayers are the prophecy's references to the last Pope on the list, Peter the Roman, who will lead the Church before "the formidable judge will judge his people."

    Since Benedict is already 78 years old, they say Peter the Roman must be coming soon, and with him, the end of the world.

    "His reign will only last a few years at most. This signals that we are living in what may be the end of days as we know it," said one Web Site entry by someone calling himself SmartBob.
