When is the world going to end?

Answer

What world is it? In order to answer this question, we must infer that the questioner means earth and surrounding areas. However, some are taught esoterically that the world comes and goes in history with no permanent creation or destruction. To say the world ends means no preservation exists eternally. Yet many religions have different beliefs and to say one has preference over the other means one is a member of that belief. I prefer the going and coming of lower world preservation times. It could end tomorrow and begin the next day, but in a permanent ending, I do not believe. Consciousness of the Self as an individual spiritual divine spark is eternal no matter what form one is in whether spiritual or manifest. Religions and philosophies place great limitations upon one, whereas freedom of spirit always has been for all outside these binding (meaning of religion) influences.

Answer

The world will end when no one expects it, when Jesus comes to earth, he will take the people who served him on one side, the other on the other, then he will take the good people up to Heaven and the rest will die while the earth is destroyed, no one knows when though, and don't worry about it, don't freak out.

Answer

Although the date December 20, 2012 sticks out according to the predictions of Nostradamus (many of his works were coded), the Aztec calendar (nothing on their calendar is recorded after this) and people such as Edgar Casey, this date does keep coming up. The truth ... no one knows when the world is going to end.. Since I was a little girl growing up in the 1940's to date there was always this controversy that the world was going to end soon. So far it hasn't, but, we all have to participate in keeping our planet clean and replacing what we take (if we can) and the worst danger of all is over population of the world. This leads to less and less space and an imbalance of nature.

Answer

It is speculated that the world will most likely end in the year 2012. The Mayan calendar is a system of measurment that has been accurate within seconds for thousands of years. Most of the predictions that were made by the race were correct. In the year 2012 the Mayan calendar ceases completely. There is argument over whether the world will actually end or if it will be similar to an ecological new beginning. In other words, something akin to hitting the reset button.

This is purely theory, and cannot be proven at this point.

Answer

Jesus said no one but the Father knows.

Answer

According to scientists many people beleive that the world will end on Dec. 21, 2012. That's the end of the Mayan calander and most of the predictions were correct but nobody really knows when the world will end. The world will end unexpectedly like a theif in the night as said in the Bible "You shall not know the date nor the time."

No one really knows. There are people with signs walking down pedestrian areas in cities that say they know, and occasionally someone will give a date and say it comes from God, but in the scriptures (if you are religious) it tells us that no man knows the hour. We'll probably figure it out before it happens... but not by much. :) And if you aren't religious, the answer is the same... who knows when we'll blow ourselves up with scary man-made bombs or the next pandemic will come. The best thing we can do is live the best we can and not worry about things that we can't control.
