I'll second that but I am not Catholic, and he is only a man, the pope is not my savior. Jesus Christ of Nazareth is the ONLY savior. Now I am stating my opinion based on truth. Most all these religions are man made. I see people following different religions and titles, going to confession and I just smh. I walk around doing houseowrk and repent for whatever stupid thing I may have done like losing my patience with adult kids that don't seem to "get it" but were raised in a Christian home, church, sunday school , etc.

I'll have to go over that because it's usually the 3,4 or 5th time a lightbulb goes off taking me someplace else that I didn't see the first time.

I'm thinking Jesus fulfilled the first half 3.5 years because there was great tribulation , persecution and the earth shook enough that people came out of their graves.

I'm thinking the second half, will happen without warning, fast and chaotic. Matthew 24 mentions this and it kicks off the tribulation so 3.5 years from this event (-/+) will be the return of Christ and, we wiil be sure because the sun and the moon tell us just before the rapture which will be immediately after the tribulation. The darkens both times first for the rapture with a blood moon and next... the Second Coming (wrath) Both the moon and sun darken. We will go through tribulation but are taken out before the Wrath. So we do know when the Second Coming is by paying attention to the simplest things and events that must take place first--> I'm no scholar so forgive me for putting every scripture, I know I read it and I don't want tunnel vision that could take everything out of context. I have an open mind because a closed mind cannot take in new information, example: more knowledge will be learned. A closed mind cannot learn. God told Daniel to shut up the words.... it was not for his time and to seal it or shut the book for the end. I have no doubts today we are watching the every player on the chess board except the AC.
