The End is Near. Or Is It? (Steph Here)

First of all, my sources: The Bible, This Site, and This Site

Okay, I'm just gonna come right out and say that Steph is posting this post because there is more of an audience.
Who here has seen the Left Behind movies? Basically the movie trilogy follows the lives of a group of new Christians after Jesus' second coming. The antichrist, Nickolae Carpathia, is starting his 'world peace' thing and buying ten territories. He is so influencial that he has made a one world currency. There's been a terrible famine, and one Jewish farmer has beaten the odds with a secret formula he uses to grow crops.
Nickolae has the building plans for Solomon's Temple (the one that had been destroyed thousands of years ago) and he trades this to the Jewish man for his formula, all in the name of peace.
Now that Nickolae has the formula, he can now control the world's food supply. He also unveiled the building plans for Solomon's Temple. In scripture, it says that "The antichrist will sit in the temple of Solomon and declair himself God."
The group of Christians stop Nickolae from having it proven he is God, and that's where the second movie ends. I haven't seen the third one, but I'm guessing that it has something to do with the Mark of the Beast and the wars between nations.

Now here's the scary thing; some of you may have heard that the UK is trying to make a one world bank. Sound familiar? I don't know who's behind this, but it might have something to do with the antichrist.

Scripture says that the antichrist will make peace with all nations. He will create a cashless society, one world currency, and also a one world government -- which he will control. He will control ten territories, and gain control of two super powers (ex: US and UK). He will gain control of the world's food supply, distributing food only to those with his mark: the Mark of the Beast. The Mark will be on your forehead or right hand, and with it, you cannot enter the kingdom of Heaven.
He will establish a one world religion, and kill every Christian he finds.

Here's something about the antichrist. There's not just one. I mean, there's one every generation, because Satan's power is so weak that he doesn't even know when the end times will occur. He raises up one antichrist each generation just in case the end times happen this time.
Think of Hitler. I believe that he was the antichrist of that generation. One religion, one government, one race...he was on a roll.

All these things will happen. If you have not accepted Christ before he comes for a second time, you will experience all these things. Even the Christians now will experience only the beginning, but those left behind will endure the horrible Seven Years of Tribulation before the earth will be made new, and the Thousand Year Reign will begin. Jesus will throw Satan into the Lake of Fire, and he will reign for one thousand years on the new earth.
Then Judgement Day will come, and God will stand before the gate of Heaven and ask you why you should be let into his Kingdom.

Will you be ready?

See what you think of this: I posted a free e-book on the Web that describes the happenings of the End Times in simple terms and plain English. The story is very different from the Left Behind series, but I'd like to think that it's more true to the Bible. Read Walkabout: The History of a Brief Century!
