to my non believing brothers who mock the worship of this "bronze age god",

Years ago, I came to the conclusion that I had a choice of believing in a Magic Man in the sky or magic self exploding dust.  

He's coming like a thief in the night, please, please carefully consider.

I encourage you to check out Evidence that Demands a Verdict (McDowell), Is God a Moral Monster? (Copan), The Cost or Discipleship (Bonhoeffer), or anything by GK Chesterton.  
Or, if you haven't ever done it, just sit down and read the Gospel of Mark.

Yoh have to have something wrong with you to deny the evidence McDowell lays out. IMO

Nope. Not big on fairy tales personally but I still see Christianity as a benefit to society

I always felt i would see it, but it could be another 1000 years. Who knows. All i know, people who mock and refuse the Holy Spirit, will pay dearly, as he is coming back for vengeance not mercy this time.

I don't think any of the miraculous claims in the bible have sufficient evidence to warrant belief.  So, no.  I don't think Jesus will return.

I think the world is going to get a lot worse before the return, but 20 years is a long time in this environment it could get pretty bad long before 20 years.

Not sure of the next 20 or even 50 years.
It will definitely be 7 years(2,520 days) from when the rulers of Israel sign a peace accord assuring peace for Jerusalem.

Given
1) that 20% of millennials identify as LGBTQ which gives us, "As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be in the days of the coming of the Son of Man."
2) Russia has secured Crimea to give them that warm water port, "And come from thy place out of the North parts, thou and much people with thee? all shall ride upon horses, even a great multitude and a mighty army."

we're seeing a lot of pieces start to fall in place.

Not in the next 20 years as was asked.  We are to believe that no man knows the time, so that means if someone says it will happen in 20 years, it won't happen because then someone would know...

Yes, he will come back. Only he knows when, hopefully sooner than later

Not until there is so much chaos, turmoil, war, sickness, poverty, and everything else that is supposed to happen in the world that a kind, charismatic figure suddenly appears offering a solution...

No one knows when, but it will be so obvious when He does return.

Harpazo...buncha true christians  disappear....millions.... Probably soon-ish

Jesus 2nd coming.....7 years after the man with tha plan confirms a covenant with Israel...."peace & security "...

7 years of



Ya, huge odds that happens in your 20 yr timeframe....

Won't matter either way for good ol USA....millions disappear, bad juju for us, or they don't and we collapse anyway, at the very least as a symbol of freedom for the world...

For those who don't believe....prepare for a strong delusion to be adopted world wide after the disappearance...

Probably..

We have become too comfortable, as America turns Tyrannical and persecutes christians, my hope is more will turn to God and be saved. That it is a blessing to save ones soul, instead of being a comfortable and lost.

"But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only."

If someone is making a call, they are wrong.  When God says no one will predict it, I trust his word, and can safely presume that any predicted range is not correct.

I'm also a cessationist, so the idea of any new prophecy is highly suspect. Canon is closed.
