We soon will witness an event that has long been associated with the end of the Earth (fortunate timing before finals for my students): the blood moon. Mars, Earth, and the Sun will all align tonight which happens once every 778 days. However, the red moon is less common (as in only occasionally over 2000 years) and has long been viewed as foretelling the “end of times.”
Joel 2:31 states “The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD comes.” Religious figures are already warning that the event foretells “something significant.”
Religious figures often point to historical events occurring with the blood moon like the expulsion of Jews from Spain in 1493; the establishment of the States of Israel in 1949; and the Six Day Arab-Israeli War in 1967.
We will be experiencing four — count ’em four — blood moons. This will include April 15 (during Passover), April 4, 2015 (during Passover), September 28, 2014 (during the Feast of the Tabernacles).
Christian Pastor and author John Hagee, predicted a “hugely significant event” and warns that “According to the Biblical prophecy, world history is about to change dramatically.”
I take that to mean that this is the breakout year for both the Chicago Bears and we will once again hold the Vince Lombardi Trophy in the glow of the blood moon. Honestly, that would be worth the end of times.
After all, alignments do not have to be all bad . . .
Stanley: Thanks that was a nice reminder of what a wonderful utopia we are living in. (Sorry, I can’t help the sarcasm) And how “O” has made this world soooo…. much better. humph
Annie: save your money, watch it while eating a naval orange, blood oranges are not as good.
Seriously, according to scripture, the blood moons are a warning that the end times are coming. Of course if you are not christian, it will mean nothing to you so enjoy yourselves while watching our biblical signs. I for one think this old world is just about corrupt enough for Man to be seriously thinking of how he can change his ways.
The blood moons are not end of the world events. World with out end is what is the Bible message. The moons are signs to Gods chosen people Israel. They can be good or bad events. But if one looks to the world, one can see many strange things in the news. But the country Israel is in the news daily.
Im baptist. My father was a preacher. I married a upc. End of world ? No. Read the bible. A sign that end times are close at hand, maybe. The lord said no one will know the time of my coming not even the angles in heaven. Period. Also um do belivie that the rapture comes first sending global chaios. Then a man will arise with an excellent reason many disappeard. Most will belivie him. Then he will bring global peace like never before. Then uhoh antichrist will rise within him. And there will be seven years of trails and tribulation. So im not going to worry. If i dont get brought up in rapture then ill know its the end days.
