The World Ends Tomorrow

by justjo66


The author has placed a warning on this post for violence.

Revelations 22:12 Watch the video below it's well worth your time.

Did you read or hear the news today? The world is going to end tomorrow.
I read it the other day and again today on the computer. Are you old
enough to remember Y2K? There's been lots of other times in history, too,
where someone or some group was certain it would be on such and such
date. I think December 21, 2012 was also a Mayan end of calendar date,
too? Well, we are still here. It seems someone is always calculating the
date for tomorrow. I guess a lot of people are believing these men. Frankly,
myself, I'm not. The bible teaches that no one knows the date, time and
hour but our (my) Heavenly Father. So, I really don't think these fellows
have all their facts straight. However, I do believe this old world is in a
heap of trouble and it will end someday (perhaps sooner than we think). I
sure want to be one of those believers that is prepared when it happens.

So, if it ends tomorrow...
...I'm ready...
but I won't be quitting my job today.



A Protest song I remember from the 70's.


Eve of Destruction by Barry McGuire


The eastern world, it is exploding
Violence flarin', bullets loadin'
You're old enough to kill, but not for votin'
You don't believe in war, but what's that gun you're totin'
And even the Jordan River has bodies floatin'

But you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
Ah, you don't believe
We're on the eve
of destruction.

Don't you understand what I'm tryin' to say
Can't you feel the fears I'm feelin' today?
If the button is pushed, there's no runnin' away
There'll be no one to save, with the world in a grave
[Take a look around ya boy, it's bound to scare ya boy]

And you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
Ah, you don't believe
We're on the eve
of destruction.

Yeah, my blood's so mad feels like coagulatin'
I'm sitting here just contemplatin'
I can't twist the truth, it knows no regulation.
Handful of senators don't pass legislation
And marches alone can't bring integration
When human respect is disintegratin'
This whole crazy world is just too frustratin'

And you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
Ah, you don't believe
We're on the eve
of destruction.

Think of all the hate there is in Red China
Then take a look around to Selma, Alabama
You may leave here for 4 days in space
But when you return, it's the same old place
The poundin' of the drums, the pride and disgrace
You can bury your dead, but don't leave a trace
Hate your next-door neighbor, but don't forget to say grace
And tell me over and over and over and over again, my friend
You don't believe
We're on the eve
Of destruction
Mm, no no, you don't believe
We're on the eve
of destruction.
