Interesting Coincidence

For a number of years, this site has been arguing that a rapid acceleration of global warming will occur, bringing about the manifestation of a number of prophecies found in Revelation.  Based on scripture, we argued that Christ would return before 2048 — one hundred years from the founding of the modern state of Israel … Continue reading “Interesting Coincidence”
