signs of these days are really what it seems in the Bible. all of the prices of the products that we naturally enjoy had just increased. there are rumors of war everywhere. the red Heifer had just been born and are now ready to be sacrificed at the temple. and the temple in Israel will soon be established. the world is at its worst. homosexuals and murderers are everywhere. graft and corruption are rampant in each countries.. and it was said in the Bible that JESUS will soon come in this world to judge us. and the above signs would indicate HIS soon coming.. what do you think? will HE reallly come?.. are you prepared?

This is the same gullible nonsense that doomsayers have been talking about for centuries upon centuries.
Fact is, you can align ANY period in history with the 'last days' described in the Bible, because they are defined in an extremely vague way. And that is exactly why doomsayers have been talking about how 'now' is the 'last days' for literally thousands of years.
Does anyone remember when this same group of people saw the rising popularity of tattoos and labeled that as being analogous to the 'mark of the beast' and that therefore, it was the last days? Yeah, that was several decades ago, and nothing happened.
Wake up. The prices of products is ALWAYS going up. There have ALWAYS been wars in some place or another to 'rumor' about.
This is why the Bible's so-called "predictions" aren't taken seriously by any rational people. Find me a Biblical prophecy that doesn't fit into one of the categories of false prophecies in #1 of this link:
http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CH/CH110.html
and then show me how that prophecy has come true, and then I'll believe the Bible is prophetic.

Hi jingbautista, While I respect your beliefs, I don't think there are more signs today than there were at any other time in the last two thousand years. Christians have been expecting Christ to return ever since the Apostles time. If you read Paul's writings carefully, you will see that he expected it during his lifetime, as did other New Testament writers. Every generation since have expected it as well. You have every right to believe as you wish, but I believe Christians should be more concerned with showing love and compassion as Christ himself did, instead of thinking about a future judgement. Blessings.

I think no one knows the day or the hour and it doesnt matter, what matters is being the best human being you can be by following the two highest laws of God. Which both have to do with love because love works no evil towards its neighbor.

since we are living in the earth, the some earth, it's better if all of us try to make it proper to live in. instead of preparing ourself of "second coming of Jesus" and let the earth destroyed, why don't we be do useful things to the mother earth : helping the victim of natural calamities, fighting again corruption, being a frugal consumer, civilizing the society so the number of homosexuals and murderers is minimized.

Hello,
Yes I think He may be comming, and maybe soon.I am trying to be ready, and he knows that. He knows what is in my heart even more so than I do.
I also believe that he loves everyone. Not just an elect few.When he was here he hung out with the dreggs of society more than he did the self righteous people,who worried about the law.He said that the well weren't in need of a physician.
I have had my fill of people who point their fingers at others when they or theyr'e lifestyle is different.Remove the beam from thine own eye first so you may see to remove the splinter from thy brothers eye.And oh yea, LOVE THY NIEGHBOR.
I used to go to church with those people. The reason I don't go anymore has nothing to do with GOD.I am a Christian myself.And I can't stand people who think only they will go to heaven.
Yes I am ready and unafraid.Fear and ignorance come from the evil one.
