2 Timothy chapter 3 is a good start

Except the 3rd. Chapter of 2nd. Timothy doesn't mention anything about "killing people with mental illness and calling it medicine," so how is it to be interpreted as a "sign of the end times?"

Patrick says

Who knows, maybe the physicists will find God with their machines.

There's a lot of retconning going on in "Popular Science History".

Materialists mostly had to be dragged kicking and screaming from the Steady State Universe - took decades of Cosmic Background, Doppler Shift, etc. evidence to move the paradigm to Big Bang. Einstein himself was pushed grudgingly from materialism to light Deism over his life. Hoyle took a lifetime to shift as well. In fact, "Big Bang" was a derogatory term pushed by Hoyle, who was one of the last holdouts for Steady State

The Steady State Universe absolves materialists of origin questions: "Well, the universe always has been and will be. Is just always was"

Big Bang is an enormous problem for materialists.

1. If there were sufficient and necessary causes beyond the Universe, it would have triggered immediately so the Universe would be infinitely ancient and we wouldn't be here to ponder it due to Heat Death happening in the infinite past.

2. If the creation of the Universe happened at a finite time, only an actor's intervention could have held it back and/or caused it at a specific time.

3. A SupRAnatural cause violates Materialistic principles.

4. Exotic origin theories like Bubbleverses and such are complete ex rectum ideas without a lick of evidence or reasonable inference.

Do you know what the Crisis in Cosmology is? There is growing evidence that there wasn't a Big Bang.

There's a few fundamental problems with this Big Bang hypothesis. It wouldn't shock me at all to find out it was wrong.

If we see volcanism, erosion by wind and water, etc. today, materialism assumes it also happened in the past.

Ah, look at this layer of dust! It must be from a volcanic eruption as it resembles the same dust layers we see appear near active eruptions!

If we see a complex code today... materialists assume there was no coder

Aha! A specific set of instructions that produce certain outcomes. We only see that with writing, programs, etc. Can't be a code!

Data Science is ripping DNA evolutionary theory to shreds. Changing pieces of code at random is far far far far more likely to error and rubbish than utility. And erroneous, rubbish code doesn't get copied much.

Life is NOT designed like a "complex code". It's assembled by a bunch of parts and almost randomly. We aren't an Alpha Romeo Spider, we're an escape vehicle made from parts stolen all over from a prison to make something that can drive for a few miles.

Most of our DNA is garbage DNA. In life, you see the same pattern repeated over and over again, dolphins have 5 fingers, so do horses, but you only see the single toe.

And when it does, it's called cancer. We have telomeres at the end of our chromosomes, when they become too short, duplication of a cell is supposed to become impossible.

Haha. You ever code for a living? I have, and this certainly happens and a lot more often than you think.

Ray: the chapter starts out talking about perilous times. I don’t know about you, but if you have heart sickness (another term for “mental illness”j and your doctor recommends suicide, that sounds like the definition of perilous times. The person who is tasked with making you well, suggests killing you as a solution. Perilous times indeed.

I agree. It's an evil policy. But is it a sign of perilous times that a DR. recommends suicide to a patient? Incidentally, there is a legislative movement going on right now to make this illegal.

The entire church age has been fraught with 'perilous times.' In fact, just off the top of my head; up until the Roman Emperor Constantine (4th. Century), who melded some of Christianity with Roman paganism, Christians were fed to the lions and fought to the death with gladiators for the entertainment for the Romans. The world also had incredibly perilous times throughout the Dark Ages, where law and order vanished and disease was rampant, while literally wiping our over two thirds of the population of Europe through violence and plagues. For over 600 years, the RCC carried out their European Inquisition, whereby, Catholic Monarchs were used to torture and murder Christians that didn't bow their knee to the Papacy. In modern times, WW I saw death on a massive scale, claiming over 20 million deaths in Europe, with WW II, that rose to over 55 million. International Communism, murdered over 100 million innocent people .... I could go on, but I'll stop. We aren't even close to the "perilous times" that those aforementioned victims went through.

I would argue that the Covid 19 lies and deaths associated with the man made virus and the man made catastrophe of the response to the virus (whose effects we are still feeling) are on par with, if not exceeding the things you mentioned. It is like birth pangs, they vary in intensity but they become more frequent as the time approaches. Dr’s killing babies, killing patients (assisted suicide, ventilators, wrong use of medication, untested vaxx), governments freeing violent criminals and leaving borders wide open, these are all perilous. I agree that it is going to get worse but I don’t know anything more perilous than a doctor that kills.

It’s like a pastor that condemns you to hell or a pilot that crashes your plane on purpose. When you live in a day and age where the people who are tasked with helping you are deliberately destroying you, it is the epitome of perilous times.

Really? Under the leadership of China's Communist dictator Chairman Mao Zedong, about 60 MILLION of his fellow countrymen, many of whom looked into a ditch that would soon be a mass grave and were shot in the back of the head. I think they'd probably have a different opinion of "perilous times" than yours.

Mao killed his own people. The globalists who created the virus (and no doubt have many more in the works) were able to kill people in probably every single nation around the world, and they even managed to make it illegal to go to church in “free countries “. Now doctors are not only pushing unsafe and ineffective vaxx they are literally recommending suicide as treatment for mental health patients, Yep perilous times. But it will get worse. You can bank on it.

Rapidly approaching the day when a corrupt world government leader takes control of everyone’s ability to buy or sell.

Debanking: a precursor to the Antichrist’s mark of the beast new world order totalitarian controlled economy.

https://www.raptureready.com/2024/07/20/breathtaking-speed-by-daymond-duck/

“On July 10, 2024, it was reported that a large TV station (Auf1) with outlets in Germany and Austria that opposes forced COVID-19 vaccinations, transhumanism, climate hysteria, the Great Reset, and more has had 8 bank accounts shut down in recent weeks.

Stefan Magnet (the station founder and editor-in-chief) said:

We were already a painful thorn in the side of the political and media cartel during the coronavirus era, and now that the Great Reset is being prepared and implemented at breathtaking speed on many levels, we are even more in their way.
The globalists use their direct connections in the control centers of the banking industry to get rid of annoying opponents at the drop of a hat.
Magnet (who employs lawyers and tax advisors to ensure that he obeys the laws) has reluctantly moved the station’s bank accounts from Germany and Austria to Hungary.

The station’s problems have implications for:

Globalism (silencing the opponents of world government).
Birth pains (prophetic fulfillment speeding up at the end of the age).
Mark of the Beast (kicking people out of the economic system if they do not support the globalist agenda).
These signs are shaping up at breakneck speed.

When Jesus was asked about the signs of His coming, one thing He said was:

“When these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh. And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree [Israel], and all the trees [nations]; When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand. So likewise ye, when ye see these things [signs] come to pass, know [don’t assume; know] ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand. Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled. Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

“And take heed to yourselves [don’t get careless], lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares [catches you not watching]. For as a snare [like a trap that slams shut like when God closed the door to the ark in the days of Noah] shall it come on all them [them, not us; all unbelievers] that dwell on the face of the whole earth [all over the world]. Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man” (Luke 21:28-36).

All the signs indicate that society is fast approaching the Rapture and Tribulation Period. Our generation could very well be the Terminal Generation that will never die (Jn. 11:25-26).”

Patrick says

The New refers constantly back to the Old. Similar events repeat often with a major twist.

No Old and the New makes no sense; hence, Marcionites are heretics.

“in early Sept. 2024, it was reported that an undercover journalist secretly recorded a UN official (from the Office of Legal Affairs) expressing his opinion that UN officials are terrified at the prospect of Trump being elected again.

According to the article, the UN official said (my words for simplicity):

UN officials desire to transform the UN into a world government.
Trump opposes world government and wants to make America a sovereign nation again.
Pulling the U.S. out of the UN would cause the UN to lose about one-fourth of its income, and that could lead to the collapse of the UN.
Trump’s desire to close America’s borders is a threat to the borderless world.
Trump has signaled that he will withdraw the U.S. from the World Health Organization (WHO) and possibly NATO (if nations do not pay their dues).
The UN Office of Legal Affairs is preparing to bring Trump before a UN human rights Tribunal if he is elected and goes rogue.

Is the United States armed forces ready for 4 wars simultaneously? And what if the mainland USA is attacked as well? Is America able to withstand all these threats in a highly polarized nation which is currently dominated in government, academia, media and intelligentsia by woke radicals?

https://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/have-we-ever-seen-a-time-when-4-major-global-wars-are-all-percolating-simultaneously/

If the first housing bubble caused the Great Recession and worldwide economic upheaval, just imagine what the second bubble could cause... perhaps the black horse of the apocalypse will be riding soon?

The world is ripe for the four horsemen of Revelation to begin their sequential judgements, just as promised over two millennia ago.

PeopleUnited says

And what if the mainland USA is attacked as well?

The US armed forces will be doing the attacking is my guess. In 2002 they created a brand new Unified Combatant Command, United States Northern Command, tasked with providing military support for non-military authorities in the U.S.
Then just last month the DoD reissued 'Directive 5240.01' with new provisions that allow them to provide assistance to civilian authorities that may "involve the use of force that is likely to result in lethal force, including death or serious bodily injury".
Why would they make these preparations? It is pretty obvious what they are getting ready for.

Some have suggested a future pope could serve as the false prophet described in the book of Revelation.

The current pope has demonstrated a great deal of insensitivity If not downright disrespect by portraying the Christ child on a terrorist scarf in the Vatican’s nativity display this year.

Most people will miss the rapture because they chose to believe lies of men rather than the simple truths of God.

Romans 1:22Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23and they changed the glory of the immortal God into a likeness of an image of mortal man and birds and quadrupeds and creeping things.

24Therefore God gave them up in the desires of their hearts to impurity to dishonor their bodies between themselves, 25who changed the truth of God into falsehood, and reverenced and served the created thing beyond the One having created it, who is blessed to the ages! Amen.
