The earliest mention in The Bible of the world coming to an end is in Mark's Gospel, written approximately 70 CE, where it says that some of those alive in the time of Jesus would experience the end of times. Having given the destruction of the Jerusalem Temple as a sign of his imminent return, Mark 13:24-26 continues, "But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light and the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken and then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory." He concluded by saying that he would return within the lifetimes of some of his own generation: "Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done."
By the 80s of the first century, the time when the next gospel, Matthew's Gospel, was written, the return predicted in Mark's Gospel was becoming unlikely - the generation had already passed - and the author of Matthew had to change the emphasis away from an impending end of the world. While copying as faithfully as possible from Mark, he changed the position of the sentence about "this generation", relative to the destruction of the great buildings, so that it referred to something else altogether. He added, and emphasised, material where Jesus told the disciples that the end is not yet, and that no man knows when the end of the world will occur.
It doesn't. The Bible predicts the end of the Old Covenant and the consummation of the New Covenant. We know this happened in A.D. 70. The Bible does not predict any events beyond the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple in A.D. 70.
Stop thinking that the world is going to end in 2012. Don't be fooled by the movie 2012. That movie was just called 2012 to trick people into thinking that the world was going to end. They just want to get money out of you. Nobody on Earth knows when the world will end, but God. Some have tried to make predictions about the world ending, has never been right. Some peple actually believe that California will fall into the ocean. I thought that the world would end, but then i read the bible, The bible says the complete opposite.
NO the world isnt ending its a myth if you,ve ever read the bible it says were suppost to have 5 years of world peace then god will take the beilvers to heven and rule the world and the dead is suppost to rise when the world does end
* The Bible does not state that the world will end in 2012. * Here is my answer...the Bible says that Jesus is coming soon...it's does not say a certain time.
In medieval Europe science was generally not practiced. The Bible and the works of Aristotle were used to describe who the world worked and were considered complete and authoritative.
Probably not. You shouldn't think about the world ending, it can really can you down. You probably wont be around when the world ends so go out and have fun, don't think about the world ending.
No. There's nothing in the Bible about the world ending in 2012.
That is the last book in the Bible called "The Revelation of Jesus Christ" written by the apostle John the beloved.
In the Bible, "God's kingdom" is used to describe Christians. The "world" is used to describe those who aren't - those who follow the devil (there is no middle ground).
AnswerNo. Mark's Gospel talks about the world ending during the lives of those living in the times of the apostles, apparently in the mid-70s of the first century, and the other gospels are a little more vague on the same subject. But if the world did not end then (and it did not) then the Bible does not prophecy the world wll end in the present century.
Some theologians would describe the Bible as the atlas to the world of being a good Christian, containing maps of how to live a good life and where to find God.
Genesis chapters one through eleven describe the creation of the earth, man's expulsion from paradise, and the destruction of the world by floods.
i would describe it as the liberation of Paris
No, the Bible does not give a description.
Its unique to people because people can have a never ending debate on the subject in science or anything in the world.
Wicked.
Depends on your religion
You are such a BOUTEHOOLE
