We are going to blow up the earth (the atom bomb scare, and now the nuclear bomb). We are all going to freeze to death, the Ice age is coming (remember this from the 80’s?) Or this: We are going to over populate the world and all starve to death. And then we are all going to die because of global warming. Of course this is not new, even the disciples of the Lord asked (Matthew 24:3) …Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? Mankind is still running around predicting the end of this world. When will they believe the Bible? Continue to read Matthew 24 (and Mark 13) to see the answer the Lord Jesus gave them.
To summarize, He said “… Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name …”.
Now there will be an end to this earth. 1 Peter 3 tells of the end. Verse 10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
However before this happens, a study of eschatology (end times) reveals that there will be a period of 7 years (called Tribulation [which will feel like the end]) and then a 1000 year period of peace where the Lord Jesus will rule the earth, as King, from Jerusalem.
