2012

The world will not end in 2012 for the following reasons:

1. The Gospel has not been preached to every language, tribe and people (We are very close, though. It's estimated that by 2015 everybody in the world will have heard the Gospel preached in their native tongue. By 2025, it is estimated that the New Testament will be translated into every language). Matthew 24:14 “And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.”

2. The Jewish nation has not publically recognized Jesus as the Messiah. Matthew 23:39 "For I tell you [Jerusalem], you will not see me again until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'"

3. The Antichrist, his evil world government and worship system have not yet arisen. This will be a federation of ten world governments held together by a financial system. People will consciously commit themselves to the Antichrist and his system, out of fear, by accepting a mark on their right hand or forehead, 666. This will not happen overnight. Matthew 24:15-16 "So when you see standing in the holy place 'the abomination that causes desolation,' spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand—then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains."
