These are the “End Times”? Do you or a loved one believe this?

Certain prophecies concerning the Jewish people must be fulfilled to bring about end times. Although Christianity is full of Christians, Jesus was sent specifically to save God’s Chosen people, the Jewish people.

Matthew 15:27
“Yes it is, Lord," she said. "Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master's table."

Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon. 22 A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, "Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is suffering terribly from demon-possession." 23 Jesus did not answer a word. So his disciples came to him and urged him, "Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us." 24 He answered, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel." 25 The woman came and knelt before him. "Lord, help me!" she said. 26 He replied, "It is not right to take the children's bread and toss it to their dogs." 27 "Yes, Lord," she said, "but even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters' table." 28 Then Jesus answered, "Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted." And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

Jesus left that place and went to the vicinity of Tyre. He entered a house and did not want anyone to know it; yet he could not keep his presence secret. 25 In fact, as soon as she heard about him, a woman whose little daughter was possessed by an evil spirit came and fell at his feet. 26 The woman was a Greek, born in Syrian Phoenicia. She begged Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter. 27 "First let the children eat all they want," he told her, "for it is not right to take the children's bread and toss it to their dogs." 28 "Yes, Lord," she replied, "but even the dogs under the table eat the children's crumbs." 29 Then he told her, "For such a reply, you may go; the demon has left your daughter."

Theologically, Jesus was sent (as Messiah) to the Jew only. The biblical intent was that the Nation of Israel would accept the Messiah, receive the Spirit, and turn-around and evangelize/minister to the whole world (as they will some day--Romans 11.15). The Gentiles were included in the covenant promises to Abraham, but the blessings to them would come "through Abraham" (Gen 12.3). Cf. Jesus remarks in John 4: "Salvation is from the Jews." So, His PUBLIC ministry was semi-confined to the nation of Israel.

silly women laden with sins

Seeing the pink, purple, and blue-haired wimmin covered in filthy tattoos, yes, I would say we are getting there, very close to the end times.

Funny how you disregarded everything else from that chapter.

As a Christian and Gentile I consider myself part of Abraham's seed and therefore in covenant with Abrahamic God through sacrifice of Jesus Christ that I accepted in my heart and follow in my life. I am Eastern Orthodox and observe Passover, read Talmud, and generally do all Jewish things that Jesus did. Jesus is my Messiah and my Savior and therefore God's promise to Abraham is alive in my heart.

My Grandpa said this 40 years ago, quoting Revelations. "It's all there." It hasn't happened yet.

Perhaps it's a very long process.

Am I prepared? I suppose.

Rome didn't fall in a day. The process of corruption and degradation took a very, very, very long time. The final end was swift and painful.

I don’t believe it anymore, but I do remember being so scared when I was a teenager and sat through sermons. My mom and brother pulled a prank on my other brother where they made piles of their clothes and then hid when he came in so he’d think rapture had come and left him behind.

After 2 years of worrying about the rapture I got “saved” for a second time. I was really into trying to be a good Christian in hopes I’d find some peace and comfort and...it just never came.

That is until I finally let it all go.
