Your question involves a combination of two scriptures...
1 Thessalonians 5:2 says: " ...for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night."(NIV)(2 Peter 3:10)(Revelation 3:3)
and
Mark 13:32 which says:"But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. "(NIV)(Acts 1:7)
Depends on what you believe. Some say it does, some say it doesn't. However if your looking for a passage that says "The world will end in 2011" then you wont find it. However this is what the bible says... 2nd Peter 3:10 "But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up." As you can see it says that "the Lord will come as a thief in the night" therefore meaning that no man shall know when the world shall end he shall just come. [edit] The short answer is no. The bible does not give any kind of specific date for the end of the world, nor does it give us any clue as to when that is.i dont eventhink so because it does not say that in the bible and i know because i go to church and we read the bible.
Nobody knows for sure. The Bible tells us to live in readiness, 'it will come as a thief in the night'.
The phrase "come in like a thief in the night" is found in 1 Thessalonians 5:2 in the New Testament of the Holy Bible. It is used to describe the sudden and unexpected return of Jesus Christ.
He will, like a thief in the night.
second coming of Christ- 2 Peter 3.10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Read second peter three and just believe that gods word is true and you will understand that we are talking about the judgment of God and His wrath pouring out on those who have rejected his Son
Galatians 4:3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world: Galatians 4:3 But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage? 2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. 2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
According to the Bible, the Lord is waiting for the last of His chosen people to come to repentence. No one knows the day or the hour of Jesus' return. But He will come unexpectedly and suddenly (as a thief in the night). And as God counts it, he will come quickly. 2 Peter 3 9The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 10But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Mark 13 32But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. Revelation 22 20He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
2 Peter 3:10-12 10But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. 11Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, 12Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
"This too shall pass" doesn't come from a Bible verse... it comes from Persian Sufi poets.
Isiah 41:2
The quote "O me! You juggler! You cankerblossom! You thief of love! What have you come by night And stoln my loves heart from him" is said by the character Hermia in William Shakespeare's play A Midsummer Night's Dream.
Matthew 24:36 "Nobody knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the son, but only the Father." What this really means is that no-one will know before the time the exact day or hour. It most certainly does not mean that He will come back secretly so no-one knows. Revelation 1:7 indicates that 'every eye shall see Him.'
