Do You Believe Jesus Will Return in Your Lifetime?
 

I saw this on a link that Margie posted,

"In a 2006 study by the Pew Forum and the Pew Research Center, 79 percent of U.S. Christians said they believe Jesus will return to the Earth someday. But only 20 percent believe it will occur in their lifetime."

This made me wonder how AFFers would answer.

Please vote.

I know "no man knows" but do you really expect it to happen before you die?

I used to think so... but the older I get... LOL!! Not so sure anymore!

Once we made it past the year 2000 my whole perspective changed.

I think it is a high possibility He will return in my life time, but I'm young. So, I would think that it is possible and thought I'd rather not live through the End Times, as the Bible talks so much about persecution, but I know that it would be so wonderful to see Him coming in the clouds!

Have you read "9 Reasons Why The Rapture Will Be In 2009"? :toofunny

Hi Timmy, if you're talking to me, I'll answer, no, I have not read that. Is that the whole title of the book?

Re: Do You Believe Jesus Will Return in Your Lifet
 

I sincerely believe He could. I am looking for Him.

It was TIC. Remember, or hear about, the actual book "88 Reasons The Rapture Will Be in 1988"?

Re: Do You Believe Jesus Will Return in Your Lifet
 

I don't remember that book, as I'm young, wasn't reading quite yet in '88! LOL

I think of a song that says, "Watch ye, therefore, you know not the day when the Lord shall call us all away!......" No one really knows, I don't think, when He's coming back, but I'm sure looking forward to it no matter what.

I just remember the entire 80's when everyone knew that the rapture could happen at any moment, and was likely to "any day".

I graduated in 88 and a few years prior to that honestly believed that I would never see that day, much less getting married or owning a home.
