Subject: Does this mean that it is wrong to ask? |
Bible Note: Very well said EdB, I understand the concern of many Christians that dogmatic speculations can be bad for the spread of the Gospel. But it is also bad to ignore prophecy for fear of being wrong. We may be wrong about how we match up current events to scripture. But the scriptures are never wrong. Everything that was written will happen, no matter how often we interpret things wrong. You mention a number of very interesting observations of your own. Scripture indicates that a world wide monetary system and a world wide government will be ready for the Antichrist to assume command in the end. But Christ will take it all back! Praise God. Dan 2:44 And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.
