Such a fascinating topic is the end of the world. I remember the first time I read through the book of Revelation. I was confused beyond understanding.
I remember that song by REM..."It's the End of the World as We Know it." Are we in the end times? What does that even mean? Will the world ever end really? What are the signs of the end times?
But as with any topic, no matter how provacative, the Christian must first and foremost ask the question, "What does the Bible have to say about that?"
Well, if we collected all the books written about this one topic...the end of the world...one might imagine that not even the Superdome in New Orleans could contain them. Many have allowed their lives to be consumed with this topic. Many others have erroneously - and sinfully - predicted the date of the end of the world.
The movie 2012 is coming out this fall. Watch and you may just learn that...of course its the end of the Mayan calendar! Yeah, right. As a dear friend of mine often said, "That's cooky-talk!"
Come join us at C3 for the final two weeks of our "Taboo Topics" sermon series, where we look to God's Word for clues we can count on! See you there...and...bring your Bible!
Pastor Randy
