   "And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved:   
   but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened."   
   Mt.24:22 KJV   
      
   A cryptic statement indeed but discernable. The shorting of days simply refers   
   to the End of the World. Time will not exist any more   
   when that Day is over... it has become the Last Day when Christ returns in   
   power and glory to unleash vengeance down upon the wicked   
   both of men and celestial being's otherwise called demons and devils.   
      
   This, of course, that Christ, when He comes again, is for Judgment and   
   destruction of this present world, is completely foreign to   
   apostate Christendom's untenable conclusions that a thousand year reign of   
   Christ is to begin on the Day He arrives. This belief of a   
   thousand year reign of Christ on this sin polluted earth purposely avoids text   
   of Holy Scripture telling us that His return " Is " the   
   Last Day of earths existence. 2 Tim.4:1; Jude 1:14,15; Mk.8:38; 2 Thes.1:6-10;   
   2 Thes.2:8; 2 Pet.3:10 compare Isa.13:9 et al.   
   Avoiding these passages is a deceitful attempt in promoting denominational   
   traditions and results in taking away from the Word of God.   
   Do apostate Christians not show themselves apostate by changing the Word of   
   God from " The wages of sin death," Ro.6:23a to   
   " The wages of sin is eternal life, in hell ?" Life after death in a hell is   
   not possible according to Holy Scripture. Gen.3:19;   
   Ecc.12:7; Job 36:6; Isa.26:14 et al.   
      
   Do apostate Christians not display their reprobation to the world by elevating   
   Mary to deity even to the point of teaching she, a dead   
   woman of God's creation, is fully necessary to become saved and escape   
   Purgatory and hell ? Why then should it be so hard to preach the   
   passages clearly telling us the return of Jesus Christ is the Last Day of this   
   world's existence ? These and more passages of Holy   
   Scripture are so very clear that to mutilate them for the sake of   
   denominational traditions is to broadcast to the elect who precisely   
   the reprobate, non-elect are.   
      
   Getting back to topic... how is it possible for the apostate preachers of   
   these Last Days, 2 Tim.4:3,4, to even promote a thousand year   
   reign of Christ not only contrary to the passages already given but also in   
   it's practical sense ?... in other words, look who stands   
   to lose should Christ physically reign from Jerusalem for a thousand years. Do   
   you really think the mega-millionaire preachers and the   
   Church of Rome are happy about the idea of Christ being here physically to   
   administer judgment on all who are greedy who use their   
   perverted gospel's to accumulate much wealth ? How about all the graven images   
   erected by " Christian's " of their dead and buried they   
   gave the attributes of God unto and still pray to these for aid and comfort   
   all their lives never coming to know what salvation really   
   is ?   
      
   Not only do phony TV preacher's require tithes from their followers but   
   donations as well... some of these preachers are obese... tell   
   jokes on stage which they call a " spiritual fellowship with Christ." One such   
   preacher actually approached a builder to construct a   
   new church building driving up to the builder in a Rolls Royce. Do you really   
   believe some kind of conscience will infill these kinds   
   of hypocrites to give up their Hollywood life style because Christ is here in   
   Person ordering them to give it away ?   
      
   This is why those days will be shortened... all this culminates with Christ's   
   return in power and glory to destroy all that is wicked   
   for the elect's calling into glory just as He did in the days of Noah as the   
   Holy Scripture so teaches in crystal clarity in the   
   supplied passages and more..."" For the coming of the Son of Man will be just   
   like the days of Noah..." Mt.24:37-39
