Isn't that also what is predicted in the bible? No, now is not the time to fear but to lift our heads and know that our deliverance is at hand not frighten little kids. Mark, on a different subject, what if the antichrist is not a man but a religion. one is and is not and yet is. the image of this beast have three of like nature , the false prophet, the teacher of lies and the hidden one. In this context he has already stood on the temple mount as his own, his "image" has also already done so. Who could make war against him? who indeed I'm not saying any names nor religions but I do ask that you consider what I'm saying note the mayan didn’t predict the end of the earth only the end of the world as we know it.

I know that we are not to know the day and time but I believe we are in the beginnings of sorrows as the bible says. It's difficult to discern what pastor to study under. Things get so twisted. I have seen Mr Bakker on the church channels now and he is all out about being prepared for the oncoming devistation that is coming. He shares few bible scriptures, it's mostly a shopping show for the apocalypse. 50 minutes of buy this and here's a Lori locket and food and water storage for the oncoming earthquakes and such. It's almost like he is using the fear factor to make money. I'm not sure. I know with all that is being said It does scare the bejebbers out of me. Mr Bakker's quote is Joeseph's storehouse. He's even prohesing earthquakes and volcano's in the US. Along with tsunami's. I agree that we should have some preparation for the economic downshift that is coming, we are not out of the woods on that one. But it's like all hell is going to break loose and we need the "grab and go bags" and all. I grew up with the threat of the bombs, air raid practice in school. Tuck your head between you knees. We were always waiting for the bombs to drop. I am so tired of this doom and gloom. I thought that we were to look up for our redemption was at hand. Jesus was going to catch us up to him and we would have our new body. I think from what I have read that pre rapture is what comes through in the Bible. I am not real bright, I have a difficult time remembering where the scriptures are but I read it all over and over and have so many teaching dvd's and commentary books from Jimmy Swaggart. I haven't seen the movie 2012, not sure I want to. I think it will just scare me even more. All I know is I will keep on studying and saying my prayers and put it in the hands of the Father. I am going to get your new book and yes I do have emergency supplies. I don't even know if I make sense any more. I read the bible and do lots of studying and try to research all of this.

I think you explain your points well and I agree with you on almost all points. Various people that think Israel has been replaced by the church should note the things that are going on today and see that doesn't fit. The devil is trying hard to destroy Israel and anything Godly. Paul taught about the future of Israel in Romans and one of my favorite versus about this is Romans 11:25. Presently, most of the Jewish people are still under the blindness that Paul taught about and soon the blindness will come off. Jesus told his disciples that He will not return again (second coming) until they (Jewish people) have called for Him: Matthew 23:39. I recently found a scripture that reveled when Jesus blinded the Jewish people, shortly before the crucifixion. It's at Luke 19:42. I also received some spiritual enlightenments from reading Daniel 9:(24-27) that concerns prophecy and Israel. I believe the prophecy is exclusive to Israel since it's for Daniel's people. This prophecy has goals to be reached before the end. As of today, the Jewish people still haven't anointed the most Holy. I believe that the end of the 69th week occurred at the triumphal entry: Luke 19:(35-38) and the prophetic time clock temporary stopped the same day when Jesus cried out for the Jewish people and spiritually blinded them. I think the time clock to finish the last week (meaning 7 years), will start again soon after the fullness of the Gentiles come in:(Romans 11:25) and when the anti-christ confirms a covenant with many for 7 years (Daniel 9:27). I have read Revelations and believe that Jesus informed us about things to come including many aspects of the different churches. The Ladocian church reflects many churchs of today with their attitudes and being lukewarm. If your lukewarm, quickly turn your heater up for the Lord. Hope everyone studies to show themselves approved unto God as Paul taught in 2st Timothy 2:15. best regards, Darrell Mark, I read your book on 2012 and your earlier book on Prophecy and enjoyed both of them.

Good stuff. I especially appreciate that I can look you up on the Web and find that your have developed an interactive website that provides a forum to exchange views. I personally believe in a pretrib rapture because it makes sense for God to finally say "OK, folks who don't accept my gift of salvation, you can now recieve the consequences of your decision but I need to bring my children home before these consequences are played out. It would not be fair for them to have to receive the same consequences as you because they received my invitation and I have adopted them." He is a loving Father, after all.

I know for a fact that the world will NEVER end as the prayer states, "world without an end." However, there are MANY signs that we are heading towards the rapture. Many believe that this current Pope will be the last Pope according to St. Malachy. I think that it is interesting how this Pope thing is happening at the same time that we are looking at a One World Government, the Euro Dollar, 'alot more" earthquakes, hurricanes, and other so-called mother nature acts. The President of Iran and his hate for Israel and how he wants to wipe that nation off the face of the earth. Instant communication, knowledge, etc. this is all adding up to something will be happing around that date. Who knows the date Dec. 21, 2012 might just be another Jupiter Effects day - where many feared that that will be the last day on earth. Life went on!!!! So who knows about Dec. 2012. Nothing may not happen BUT something will be happening in the near future. Christ WILL definitely be returning and the rapture will be happening. I am interested in this topic ALOT.

Who knows the date Dec. 21, 2012 might just be another Jupiter Effects day – where many feared that that will be the last day on earth.

Life went on!!!! So who knows about Dec. 2012. Nothing may not happen BUT something will be happening in the near future.
Christ WILL definitely be returning and the rapture will be happening.

I did see the movie! As a Saved by the Blood of Jesus Christ, Born again believer who has been redeemed and set apart for God, I thought it would be entertaining to see man's interpretation of the end of the world, since I happen to know it will be a lot worse for people who aren't saved (I've read the last book of the Bible a few times!). The movie was filled with deception and prompting. I plan to write up on it after a few more hundred million people see it. I was kinda perturbed by the whole Mayan 2012 stuff...I saw the books in Barnes& Nobel and was upset, because God will not share His glory with another and all these silly books can't change God's providence. He will Return when He returns and I'm looking up as I type! I haven’t read your book, so I can’t comment on that. I did see the movie!

This series on 2012 uplifted me beyond measure. I sometimes think I should just hunker down until the rapture!! your message was definitely a word in due season. The comments above regarding premillennialism take away from the message of the bible of God's grace, mercy and love and that His judgement is absolute. If Christians would quit arguing and being fear-filled, imagine the great things that could happen in this world! Thank you for preaching hope, faith, and keeping our eyes on heaven. Perhaps those who want to argue whether we are in the tribulation or it has already happened should take that energy and show the love and compassion Jesus did to those who do not know the Lord. God help us all if we can't come together!! Blessings upon you and your family. Mark, I have heard you speak before at prophecy conferences and always enjoy your common sense & faith filled messages.
