Re: I don't worry about it for a minute!
Your link reminds me of 1999, when we were hearing lots of predictions of doom and gloom of the Y2K computer bug. Most of these doom and gloom predictions were coming from the fundy community, and was accompanied with much "end times" wackiness.
My reading is that the second coming was supposed to occur during the lifetimes of the original apostles. So here is my suggestion. The second coming will never occur. It was a failed prophecy, if it was ever intended to even be a prophecy. It isn't going to happen.
Jesus said his gospel would be preached unto the ends of the earth, and then the end would come.

Re: Ends of the Earth Disclaimer
The lord was speaking so that the men of the day could understand him. What if Jesus decided to say the earth was a sphere or that it revolves around the sun? Would that not beat the hell out of history as we now know it? Would not it affect his teaching or his plan? It would, and this is why Jesus christ spoke in this manner. It is called speaking anthropolmorphically.
Also, the bible says that in the last days it would be as it was in the days of noah. I'm talking about gays doin it, peoples all gettin drunkerd. Now, surley this has always been happening but now its starting to get more and more accepted holy carp!
Also, it is written that in the last days men will say it is not the last days because it has been the same since creation. This isn't true. It clearly has NOT been the same since creation, evolution, constipitation, whatever.
The kingdom of God is coming! Be ready! Accept christ now or forever burn in hell. LOL. I am sorry, jk. I just couldn't resist.
