2012 End of the World by Rev Daniel Blair, November 17, 2012

If you are drawn to this blog then apparently you are not unaware of the prediction that the world is supposed to end on 12-21-2012. After doing considerable research on this prediction I find that my own Biblical convictions concerning the end time has not changed. Having said that, I am still amazed at the coincidences that have surfaced during my research, not to mention the many other calamities slated to happen in the year 2012. So what is the Christian to think? Should we be concerned about this exact date setting for the end of the world? I would answer emphatically no! Based on God’s Holy Word to us, Christ said, “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.” (Mt 24:36) But even this holy Word does not negate the fact that the whole world may be aware of the season, but still harden their heart toward the one true God who can save them from eternal damnation.

I am reminded of God’s Word that says, “For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities – his eternal power and divine nature – have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.” (Rom. 1:20) As the world draws closer to the end even the pagan will question what is clearly seen. Most of the known world is concerned about global warming, climate change, and a pending economic calamity. There is a real fear of the increase in super storms, massive earthquakes, and an increase in volcanic activity globally. Learned men from both camps question the possibility of a new world order and the impending slavery of civilization. Then they have heard the modern day prophets proclaiming the end of all things as we know it. And on top of all that, we now have these predictions about 2012 and the end of the world.

Any independent observer may dismiss all of this about 2012 as rubbish; however, what causes me to take notice are the unexplained coincidences between predictions of Nostradamus and Mayan Long Calendar produced by the Maya civilization (August 11, 3114 BC) and scheduled to end on December 21, 2012. The newly discovered book of Nostradamus was found in an Italian public library in Rome, Italy. The book contains many watercolor images that seem to be showing some of his many predictions. The last seven images are the most important in the entire book because they predict how and when the world is going to end.

Can it be a coincidence when different civilizations on different continents in different times came up with the same date? Then add to this other recent predictions by scientists for the same year (2012) such as Solar Flares will reach their peak, a Volcano Catastrophe in Yellowstone, a Galactic Alignment for the first time in 26,000 years. And if that’s not enough there is a clear present danger of renegade nations acquiring the nuclear bomb, an economic collapse, and a pandemic. I keep coming back to Holy Scripture that says, man will have no excuse on the Day of Judgment, for even the pagan is raising his voice along with the Christian community to sound the warning. Is not God just? Has He not always sounded the warning through His prophets? Has He not even spoken through the pagan in dreams and visions when He wanted to warn His people? (See Gen. 41:1ff; Dan. 2:1ff) Has God not also used the pagan to proclaim His will? (See II Chronicles 36:22-23; Isaiah 44:28ff). Although God will use His holy prophets to properly interpret the signs and what the pagans are trying to proclaim, He will always send the warning.

There is no accident that both pagan and Christian alike are sounding the warning. There is no accident when asked; most people believe that we are living in the last days. Personally, as I have already stated I don’t believe the world will end on December 21, 2012, but I do believe it could very well be the beginning of the end. It could be a new day that changes the entire world thrusting civilization into a completely different direction. I personally believe that evil will reach its zenith having a profound effect upon every person driving millions more to the counselor’s office and eventually to psychotropic drug addiction. With the increase in massive unexplained natural disasters descending upon the planet heightened fear will cause pandemonium and hysteria. As millions in the affluent West are driven to beg for their food in the worst economic earthquake ever it will cause unchecked anarchy. Dear children, I must say it again; it is time to “stand firm.”
