Question
Hello Mr.Goins!

Your specialty is in prophecy.I'd like to know your view on where we stand in relation to the "end of the age."
We heard for so long how the theologians were prognosticating how the end of the age would be realized by the end of the 20th century.
It has passed,all were proven wrong.
In our liftimes,the big endtime voices were the likes of Van Impe,LaLonde,Lindsey,Wilkerson,Hunt...so many more.
We now hear many shucking it off as miscaculation of the ancient Hebraic calender dates or that the end of the age begins not 2000 years after Christ's birth,rather 2000 years AFTER his departure from this world.(yada,yada...)
Still some more say we have had a genarally wrong interpretation of Revelations.This has lead us to think we are the last days gneration.But we are apparently not,according to a novo interpretation of the symbology in Bible endtime prophecy.
Now, WHO IS CORRECT?
Are we nowhere near the end of it all? Since all the 2000'ers are wrong this seems to throw off everything we once thought about the coming Antichrist,the destruction of the world,the coming Kingdom of Jesus Christ,et all.
Do you sicerely believe this 21st century will see the culmination of what all of Christiandom has long awaited?-V.K.

Answer
Greetings, in the name of Jesus, the Christ...

to answer your first question:
Are we nowhere near the end of it all?

First of all, please allow me to say this;
The word of God is clear on the fact, that NO ONE (not even Jesus) knows the exact day or hour, but it does say and/or teach that we WILL know the season.

Knowing this fact, I hope you are not suggesting that i tell you what I believe is that day and hour.  I will, however, tell you what I (personally) believe is the season.
Based upon what God's word does tell us, and/or teaches...
I believe that most of the signs, given to us in His word,as to knowing when that time will come, has happened, we are only waiting for a couple more. So with this in mind,



the answer to your next question;
Do you sicerely believe this 21st century will see the culmination of what all of Christiandom has long awaited?-

I would have to say, the following:

YES, I personally believe that sometime, in the 21st century is the season.  I would or might go a little further and say, that I personally believe that it is sooner than most think or wish to believe.  MY personal belief is sometime around the next 10 yrs, or sooner.

And i really think it will be much sooner....due to all the things that have happened lately. But please remember, this is what " I " believe, based on what I've studied from God's word. I would suggest that you also begin studying it for yourself...it all there for you to see, for yourself....stop listening to just any person tell you what they believe...see it for yourself. It's there, you just need to open your heart and eyes....to its truth.

I hoped this helped;
God Bless you and yours,
as you begin to learn of Him.

In His Service and Love
