Nearing Midnight: The End Times Are Sneaking Up On Us

The Bible warns that someday a period of unparalleled calamity will sweep over this planet. During the time commonly known as the Tribulation, the loss of life will be so great that nearly all the inhabitants of the earth will perish. With the Word of God making such a dire prediction, you would think that Christians would be extremely sensitive to any events that seem to match prophecy.
According to Barna Research, 70 percent of the U.S. population believes that someday Jesus is coming back to earth. The same number of people are familiar with terms like: Tribulation, Antichrist, 666, or Armageddon and they realize their negative connotations. The understanding of prophecy may be very broad, but it is also extremely shallow. Everyone knows that 666, is a demonic number linked to the devil, but few people could tell you why it has a sinister association with evil.
Despite the fact that we are drowning in a sea of end-time signs, awareness has been dropping off sharply in recent years. This is actually yet another indicator of the end because Jesus talked more about the lack of awareness than any other sign. The Lord was so insistent about getting this point across that He repeated himself four times in the book of Matthew:
“But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only” (Mathew 24:36).
“Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come” (Matthew 24:42).
“Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh” (Matthew 24:44).
“Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh” (Matthew 25:13).
The one thing that helps me the most in being a last days watchman is keeping a record of how people’s reactions to world events has changed over the years. Back the 1980s, there was a continuous buzz over who might be the Antichrist. At any given time, there might be a dozen books in print that would point to a certain political leaders as being the Beast, of Revelation.
Soul Deceiver. The world adores him, but secretly, he is luring their souls on a one-way ticket to hell.

Today, this type of speculation has almost completely evaporated. I have to laugh when I think of how the writers of three decades ago would react to the deeds of President Barack Obama. If you could transport him back to the 80s, it would be like feeding time for a pack of hungry lions.
I’m equally amazed that Russian leader Vladimir Putin has largely escaped being assessed for how he would fit the roll of Gog. Putin has worked tirelessly to build alliances with Arab states that will make possible the Ezekiel 38 and 39 invasion of Northern Israel.
When I lived in Bellevue, Nebraska, there was a Christian bookstore I visited at least once a month to see the latest books on prophecy. Every time there was a major world event, it was guaranteed that a book on the subject would reach the market in a few months. You fast-forward two decades to today, and the field of prophecy books is a desert. The pace of new prophecy books is now measured in how many are published in a year.
One of the problems with prophetic awareness is that we have become too familiar with events that are related to the end-times. Back in the 1970s there was a huge amount of interest in all things related to the European Union. Back then, it was called the European Economic Community (EEC), and every time a new member was added there was great deal of excitement in prophecy. In 2013, the activity of this organization is oblivious to Bible scholars.
Another end-time sign is that people have become dangerously cozy with the surveillance technology. When in the 90s, the city of London installed cameras on every major corner to help prevent crime, we in America were shocked by this Orwellian move. After the 911, terrorist attack, opposition to big Brother cameras faded, and they have become all pervasive.
The massive disparity between the frequency of birth pangs and the general sense of apathy is what I have long-called the granddaddy of end-time indicators. I can trace consistent prophetic interest all the way back to the 1840s Miller movement. It doesn’t make sense for prophecy watchers to lose their focus, at the most critical moment in history.
If we are drawing very near to the Rapture, it’s vital for us to keep doing that which will be the most productive for the kingdom of God. We stay productive at Rapture Ready because we don’t want to be the foolish servant that Jesus warned us about.
“Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time? It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns. I tell you the truth, he will put him in charge of all his possessions. But suppose that servant is wicked and says to himself, ‘My master is staying away a long time,’ and he then begins to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards. The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of. He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth” (Matthew 24:45-51).

Read about Todd Standberg:
Is Obama the Antichrist?
On Nov. 5, Todd Strandberg was at his desk, fielding E-mails from around the world. As the editor and founder of RaptureReady.com, his job is to track current events and link them to biblical prophecy in hopes of maintaining his status as “the eBay of prophecy,” the best source online for predictions and calculations concerning the end of the world. Already Barack Obama had drawn the attention of apocalypse watchers after an anonymous e-mail circulated among conservative Christians in October implying that he was the Antichrist. Former “Saturday Night Live” ingénue Victoria Jackson fueled the fire when, according to news reports, she wrote on her Web site that Obama “bears traits that resemble the anti-Christ.” Now Strandberg was receiving up-to-the-minute news from his constituents in Illinois. One of the winning lottery numbers in the president-elect’s home state was 666– which, as everyone knows, is the sign of the Beast (also known as the Antichrist). “It is very eerie, and I take it for a sign as to who he really is,” wrote one of Strandberg’s correspondents.
Ever since Jesus Christ was crucified and, according to the Gospels, rose again in glory, his followers have been anticipating the end of history–the time when their Lord will return to earth and reign for a thousand years. The question has always been when. Most Christians don’t worry about the end too much; it’s an abstract concept, a theological puzzle for late-night pondering. A few, however, have always believed that it is coming–and soon. Millennialist movements, as they’re called, gain prominence especially when the world grows chaotic, during wars and at the turn of every century. According to a 2006 study by the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life, a third of white evangelicals believe the world will end in their lifetimes. These mostly conservative Christians believe a great battle is imminent. After years of tribulation–natural disasters, other cataclysms (such as the collapse of financial markets)–God’s armies will vanquish armies led by the Antichrist himself. He will be a sweet-talking world leader who gathers governments and economies under his command to further his own evil agenda. In this world view, “the spread of secular progressive ideas is a prelude to the enslavement of mankind,” explains Richard Landes, former director of the Center for Millennial Studies at Boston University.
No wonder, then, that Obama triggers such fear in the hearts of America’s millennialist Christians. Mat Staver, dean of Liberty University’s law school, says he does not believe Obama is the Antichrist, but he can see how others might. Obama’s own use of religious rhetoric belies his liberal positions on abortion and traditional marriage, Staver says, positions that “religious conservatives believe will threaten their freedom.” The people who believe Obama is the Antichrist are perhaps jumping to conclusions, but they’re not nuts: “They are expressing a concern and a fear that is widely shared,” Staver says.
Before Christ comes again, those who are saved will ascend to heaven, according to this end-times theology, in a huge, upward whoosh called the Rapture. Strandberg is so certain that the Rapture is coming, he’s bought a number of Internet addresses in addition to RaptureReady: AntiAntichrist, Tribulationus and RaptureMe. In the event that RaptureReady crashes during the apocalypse, anyone who needs an update will, with a simple Google search, be able to get one. Strandberg says Obama probably isn’t the Antichrist, but he’s watching the president-elect carefully. On his Web site, he has something called the Rapture Index, a calculation based on signs and prophecy of the proximity of the end. According to Strandberg, any number over 160 means “fasten your seat belts.” Obama’s win pushed the index to 161.

Editor’s Note: The colum above, written for Newsweek, has received much criticism from Newsweek readers and in the blogosphere. Newsweek blogger Kurt Soller asked Lisa to respond to the critics. This is her response in full:
On Nov. 5, I was on the phone with a source, a conservative Christian who was disappointed in the result of the election. But something else disappointed him more. Too many of his colleagues on the right, he said, were unable to focus on moving ahead. Too many of them, he told me, saw the result as a catastrophe, a sign of the end; some of them were talking about the president-elect as if he were the anti-Christ. I was intrigued for two reasons. The Barack Obama campaign had faced much criticism for the Messiah-like aura that surrounded it. Now, a certain constituency of far-right Christians were looking at the president-elect as the devil–or at least, as devilish. This seemed to me to be newsworthy. As I looked into it, I saw that the Antichrist idea had been “out there,” in various ways, in local papers and on sites like Politico and USNews.com. Second, I felt that all the stories about the “new evangelicals” during this election season had obscured a very important reality in the Christian landscape: a third of white evangelicals believe that the world will end in their lifetimes, according to the Pew Forum on Religion & Public life. In other words, Americans with an apocalyptic worldview, who believe that the Bible contains prophesy predicting the end of time, are far from extinct.
Apocalypticism, the idea that God will bring about the end of history soon (in a series of events whose exact order has been debated for centuries) and reward the righteous with heaven, has been around since before the birth of Jesus. Many reputable scholars now believe that Jesus himself was an apocalyptic prophet and preached something like this warning, from the Gospel of Mark: “The Kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe in the Gospel.” The controversy over the sanity of this perspective began on the first Easter, when Jesus rose from the dead, according to the gospels, and the world stayed right where it was. The sun rose and set and rose again. The history of Christianity has, in some sense, been a story about reconciling these foreboding teachings of Jesus–and of the apostle Paul–with history as it goes on and on. Today, most mainstream Christians think about Jesus’s apocalpyticism in more metaphorical terms, not as real-time warnings. But through the centuries, there have been many who continued to mine the Bible for exact information about where, when and how the world would end. Millennialists have thrived in America; Todd Strandberg, the lead character in our story, is one of them.
I do not endorse millennialist theology, but I do not dismiss it either. I am a journalist, not a rabbi; I do not aim to condone one truth claim above another, for that way madness lies. (Did God really part the Red Sea? Did Jesus, sentenced to death for political crimes, really rise from the dead after three days in a cave? Did Mohammed really travel to heaven to talk to God? Did an angel named Moroni descend from heaven to show a young American boy named Joseph Smith the location of secret tablets upon which scripture was written?) Christians with an apocalyptic worldview are important to the story of Christianity and in America, their values have to a great degree shaped what we call the culture wars. Many of them believe that what they see as the creep of secular progressivism is a prelude to the end of the world. They are an important part of the American fabric, and in my view, worth 600 words in a national magazine. As I do with most controversial subjects, I let these end-times believers speak for themselves, hoping that readers would draw their own conclusions about the soundness of their beliefs. I never imagined that readers would think that they spoke for NEWSWEEK or for me.

I’ve been watching headlines just like this for years now, daily. Talk about crying wolf. If anything, it seems like whatever everybody is saying is going to happen ANY TIME NOW is most likely NOT to happen. That’s what I have noticed.

PPSimmons’ talking openly about Obama being the Antichrist. Like Todd Strandberg
/obama/2013/06/silence-on-obama-antichrist-lifted-internet-legend-ppsimmons-mentions-obama-antichrist-video-2452892.html
Mark Brander’s always said he and Linda Newkirk say Obama’s the Antichrist.
They’re here at BIN.
We are many.
Time does not exist.
There is no end to anything.
Constant change is all there is.
Doesn’t mean there isn’t an Apocalypse and you won’t be thrown into hell.
You’re not protected by what you say about everything being a dreamy thing (that’s crap because when you’re on the first line to be fried you’ll cry for your mama).
Watch your actions and if you don’t join us the Messengers of the Apocalypse you’ll roast for all eternity; are you Happy NOW; freak?
>Time does not exist.
There is no end to anything.
Constant change is all there is.>
The Bible says punishMENT not punisHING. Only those found in the Book of Life will have eternity. NOT SOULS BEING PUNISHED FOREVER, otherwise they would have eternal life too.
BUT the Bible says the soul that sinneth IT SHALL DIE, not live forever, idiot.
There will be many false christs claiming to be the way.
So beware.
Follow me because I know the way and am spreading it now.
Sheriff Joe’s speaking out in there days about the Obama-birth issue.
Seeing the criminal Fascist spying and vindicativeness of the Obama Rule, you can’t support this guy against me. Or can you?
Why are you so mad, Obama’s failing and you told me you didn’t like him. I don’t get why you’re so angry.
Obama’s heading for jail with people like Trump and now Sheriff Arpaio stepping up to call him out – Arpaio’s speaking on June 28th he just announced.
Sheriff Joe speaks in three days, I suppose he’ll be angling to get Obama jailed some way.

IMO you have it wrong. There is no reason to attack someone else for having different views than you. I believe totally in God and I’m sure your bullying approach has not gone unnoticed. Have a good day.
There will be many false christs in the Apocalypse.
Reveal Obama’s the Antichrist.
No other way will save you because the false christs will deceive you, they’re false christs and false Christians.
The Rapture: did Jesus Christ reveal a rapture?
In Matthew 24 Jesus Christ very briefly outlines the end times in three short sentences.
In verse 29 He speaks of the 5th Seal then the 6th Seal, then in verse 30 the 7th Seal.
At the end of the 7th seal, when He sends His angels to collect the Saints of God to meet Him in the clouds He is speaking of the First Resurrection and His Return.
This is not a rapture, when He comes at the last trump He is coming to earth as its King.
What do these three scriptures really say?
Matthew 24: 29 – 31
29 “Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, –
Christ is stating: right after the 5th Seal is complete; after the tribulation
(The Great Tribulation) is over the 6th Seal begins. As the Heavenly Signs (6th Seal) begin the sun shall be darkened.
— and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, —
These are all some of the heavenly signs of the 6th Seal which is God’s intervention to stop the complete annihilation of man by Satan. Remember, no flesh be saved alive? God the Father is doing the shaking of the heavens, not Satan. The 6th Seal is the beginning of the Wrath of God on the Beast Power and all the gentile nations. God gets their attention by shaking the heavens. Heavens is plural and must then include the planets and stars above as well as the mantel of air above earth.
— and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:”
By the time the 6th Seal is completed the heavens ‘shall be shaken’.
When the 6th ends the 7th Seal begins.
30 “And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: —
Christ now moves directly to the end of the last Trump, the 7th Trump of the 7th Seal. In many scriptures the last trump, which is the Seven Last Plagues, is shown to be Christ’s return as King of kings. When the 7th plague is poured out heaven opens and a great voice proclaims “It is done”.
— And then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of
Man coming in the clouds of heaven with Power and Great Glory.”—
Why else would the tribes mourn, they will see Him coming in unimaginable power?
You must admit, if He turned around and went back after all of this they would no longer mourn, they would be overjoyed. This is not the rapture, with all that will occur, Christ will return to earth.
The whole earth sees and realizes what is taking place, never has any man, much less the entire earth, witnessed the Awesome Power and Glory of Almighty God which the Father will demonstrate unmistakably around the earth at the return of His Son Jesus Christ. And Christ comes in the Clouds, “On The Last Day”, exactly as He left after His Resurrection, in the clouds —
31 “And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, —-
Christ sends His angels with the great sound of the Last Trump. Here is where the concept of a rapture vanishes; the 5th, 6th, and now the 7th seal is finished with the sounding of the Last Trump, the last of 7 trumps. Christ is coming with indescribable Power and Glory.
— And they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.”
Many rapture advocate claim the above is the rapture, if this is the rapture then what must the real return of Christ be like?? Can there be two times when Christ comes with great power in the clouds? Is one greater then the other, two sets of Saints to be raised to eternal life? One in the rapture the others He again collects from the 4 winds? Zechariah 14 stated He shall come with ALL the Saints. Does not mention coming twice.
As shown in the scriptures above, the 5th, 6th and 7th Seals are finished, AND THEN He sends His Angels to gather His Elect from the 4 winds, from one end of heaven to the other. Why would He return to heaven once all 7 Seals are complete and The Wrath of God is “Done”? Christ is now on earth as its King, He has now conquered all the nations on earth. This is not a secret rapture, hidden for a select few.
If you are a true believer ask yourself this one question; why would God make all of the Saints from creation until the Return of Jesus Christ live their entire lives here on earth suffering all manner of anguish and pain, dying in ways too horrible to mention and He is going to spare you — why? If any should be spared how about the Apostles, they were all martyred but one, John.
But your lives are special? You have done an exemplary job of showing up on Sunday? If you tell me it is to protect you from the Wrath of God then my response: your god must be too weak to protect here on earth, but my Father can protect me at ground Zero of a neutron bomb blast.
.This is just one of hundreds of problems encountered by trying to insert a rapture into the plan of God with scriptures that proclaim three resurrection. In Revelation it plainly states ‘This is the First Resurrection”, when a ‘first’ is plainly stated, it demands a Second, with God three is His number of finality. Three resurrections finalize salvation.
“For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God:” 1 Peter 4:17
The Tribulation is FOR THE CHURCH. Any thoughts of a Rapture are foolishness. God says “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge” Hosea 4:6
Read and STUDY your Bibles people!!! Stop listening to fools and ask the Holy Spirit for Truth and you WILL receive it. I was raised Baptist. When I decided to actually re-read and study the Bible, the Holy Spirit told me to “Forget ALL THINGS I was previously taught” – that was the beginning of having my eyes opened and ALL Scripture connected, interlocked, and was made clear.
“Poverty and shame shall be to him that refuseth instruction: but he that regardeth reproof shall be honoured.” Proverbs 13:18
apollo,
you are correct, it is called “The Time of Jacob’s Trouble”. The whole House of Israel is to be punished.
The Wrath of God is punishment upon the gentiles.
So many words. So little content.
“we don’t want to be the foolish servant that Jesus warned us about. ”
If you don’t want to be the fool why r u promoting a false satanic pre-trib rapture? Jesus said let No Man Device You that day shall not come until ……. etc..
BUT you are being fooled into thinking that Jesus comes twice and sneaks you away??? This is foolish..
Its quite obvious we must love not our lives till death.
I don’t believe these are “end times” for all of humanity. I do believe we are approaching “the end of life as we’ve known it.” I believe times will become very difficult, many will die through disease, radiation, starvation, loss of the power grid, and via police state violence, but not everyone will die. I think it’s comforting in a way to believe that we shall all instantaneously depart from this Earth, some ending up in “Hell”, of course – but that isn’t the way it’s going to be. There will be Pain. For the best of us and the worst of us and those who hover in-between. Jesus may offer solace but he cannot exempt you from facing up to the human experience.
Read the Bible.
It’s about the Last Judgment not destruction of the physical world.
Apocalypse revealing not destroying aka just throwing into hell that’s all but not destroying of people or the world.
FEAR PORN

MORE CHRISTIAN FEAR PORN
I’ve beenwondering a lot on the seals latley. I believe the seals are opened when people have some more, or extra understanding of scripture, and prophecy. meaning your statement of the miller movement was nothing more than a opening of a seal. People say the bible is it’s own interpreter so that’s a good place to start.
Strange thing happened just as I was about to hit submitt earlier on this story I very much believe Satan just tryed to stop me from posting here, for what I have to say I beleive opens up at least one seal maybe more.
Daniele was told to seal up the book until the time to come, for people to understand, so I’m thinking Millers revival was just that. Meaining an opening of a seal. People may have been reading these prophecy’s but never understood them untill miller came on the scene. So just that was an opening of a seal.
God had been prevailing upon me to write this for some time, and even in prayer I prayed this a while back for an answer. I asked if he wanted me to try and get what truth I have out to other people to make it possible with how I am, and my capability’s.
Genisis talks of creation as starting from morning to evening as being the first day. By our count of time then that is only a 12 hour period. Our time frame alone from the evening to morning is off, wrong let alone our count of days.
Using what we do now now is SUnday is the first day of the week. So lets count that shall we?
Sunday evening to monday morning in creation would be the first day of the week. Monday evening to Tuesday morning is the second day of the week Tuesday evening to Wednesday morning is the thrid day of the week Wednesday evening to Thursday morning is the fourth day of the week, Thursday evening to Friday morning is the fifth day of the week, Friday evening to Saturday morning would be the sixth day of the week, and then Saturday evening to Sunday morning is the seventh day of the week. Notice how part of Saturday, and part of Sunday is the Seventh then Sunday evening would begin the new week? with that wheres the sabbath?
No room when part of Saturday using the bibles truth and not mans false tradtition is the 6th day. And part of Sunday, but only the morning is the sabbath and the last part at that.
YOu can’t have the 7th day on the same day as the first day which again you using our calandar would have to start on Sunday as the first day, but only start at Sunday evening. Notice too that it keeps counting on from adam’s creation or mans creation through the 6th day doesn’t start over since that would have been the real start of time?
Of cource I concede that any day God started creation could be used as the first day, but giving our 7 day clandar it would seem prudent to start with Sunday.
As you see weve screwed Gods word up severely.
One other observation I’ve made is skynet as in the terminater is closer to a reality than people think.
No we don’t have to wait for some earthly temple to be rebuilt for science acting as god fulfills that prophecy very nicely. For when that man of sin and perdition sits in the temple claiming to be god and exhalting himself as God, and is revealed is when these things come to pass.
Were the temple and when we play God as in Weather control, AI creation, plastic surgery, Socialist marxist docterine along with evolution does that very nicely. Creating a utopian world peace and world order weather or not one man rules it all fulfills that as well. Utopian means a perfect world or in other words a heaven on earth!!!!
I also go along with the idea that the earth is older than 6k years but far less than 4 billion.
I saw on some site that using the 1k years is but a day in human life is wrong because of the next verse. Well lets open that seal too. saying both versus together is not negating one another it’s very much in fact says the same thing just backwards so no those that feel the earth is older than 6k years are more right than those that don’t. again it say one day with the lord is as one day of our time paraphrasing so not word for word but still. second verse is 1000 years with the lord is as one day same thing didn’t change or negate anything just said the same thing backwards. to clarify one day of human time is the same as 1,000 year swith the lord meaning or one day would be 1000 years with him. visa versa one day with the lord would be 1000 years our time. Notice in the bible story’s how ling it does take things to develope? 400 years israel was in captivity not four of our days but less than a day with the lord!!! or 400 of our years but less than one full day with the lord.
Notice too Adam was 900 years old but giving the equation of 1day =1000 years he was in reality 3900 years old. too take the first three generations of adam and all who were begatt!!!
=2700 years this was after sin so 2700 years is correct then later on you get to Noah and the flood. If Noah happened as close as our time says he would of killed adam!!!
Earth could not possibley be only 6,000 years old for not enough time would lapse from adams time to Noahs!!!
Become as a little child in heart beleive in all things erase all worldy knowledge and pray to God before you even sit down to read the Bible. forget what the preacher has said, or anyohter person ask God to lead you through it, I bet you will come to a conclusion similar to what I’ve said.
Were so far from truth it’s pethetic God had ways that gave us liberty not tyrany as mans Gov has. Remember Samuel warned the people not to ask a king for he will bring tyranny on them.
Saul Forgot this concept and did himmself in. Tyrrany is a human concept not Gods!!!
Is it any wonder that in Daneiel says a stone uncut by man’s hands will strike these kings down meaning the kingdoms and Gov’s of the earth down? We may not be able to cut this stone but we can surely direct it’s path!!!
Were to be without a GOv but God’s Gov only Gods ways are so much better than ours it’s very maddening to see how wev’e messed it up. we need him to come and set us up like his promise.
i think this is an opening of a seal even if no one accepts it I will keep at it untill it is. I beleive full heartedly that God is leading me to say these things.
Only ungodly men fear God and his word!!! While it’s true that several billion will die during the tribulation, and ture that civilization will come to and end during the tribulation period no where does it say that all comes to and end. A new heaven and new earth is made during this time those that are saved will get the privilage to partake in this new earth. oh ya many will say where is this God where is this sign etc… this statement or sying such things fullfills this prophecy.
not word for word of cource, but still gets the point.
Beter yet only ungodly men use the term fear porn!!
people should rejoice not fear this time, but you can pretty much tell who will take the mark and who wont.
In the last week or so, we have been in between birth pangs. I am waiting for something of major significance to happen very soon; another set of pangs coming, each one worse than the last and coming closer together every time. We are in the end times and it is wise to discover that you are a sinner in need of a savior. Jesus Christ is that Savior. “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” Acts 4:12 How? you may ask. Just get on your knees, admit that you are a sinner, admit that you need a savior and call on the name of Jesus Christ to forgive you of your sins. Repent of them and tell Him that you want Him to come and live in your heart. Begin to live every day for Him and to read and study His word day and night. There is much to know about the times we live in and most of what we hear from our TVs and the media are lies. Most of what we have been taught over the years in public school and university are lies also. Jesus Christ is coming and Truth will shine like the sun. For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. Habakkuk 2:14 If you are sincere in your heart, you will be saved from the wrath of God now and forever. Do it today. Tomorrow may certainly be too late!
