It could have. But it hasn't because there are angels holding back the four winds of destruction for the sealing of the chosen ones. When it is complete, they will be let loose.
In the meantime there is still time to ally with Jehovah and the forces of good.

You all have been saying it for hundreds of years...not happened yet.
If it does though and you are not saved what will you do then?.
It is like you and others actually want the world to end to say "I told you so" but If it does no God will save any of us especially those who want it and welcome it.

No. You have no idea what is going on do you.
The wicked will act wickedly and no one wicked will understand.
But the words are sealed until the time of the end and those acting with insight will make true knowledge abound.
And know this also that in the end riduculers will come with their ridicule asking where is this foretold presence of his.

And yet, here you are promoting and gleefully hoping for the end of the world and the destruction of mankind!
Death is imminent.
The end will also be the beginning of something greater, a new Kingdom where Love and Service reign. We will soon wake up from this Babylonian nightmare.
This world sees death and taxes as the only certainties, whereas True followers of Christ realize life and liberty to be a free gift for all those who have the fortitude to remain on the path.

(The beginning of new life is received) After the destruction of all life on earth though, right?
"This world sees death and taxes as the only certainties, whereas True followers of Christ realize life and liberty to be a free gift for all those who have the fortitude to remain on the path."
This gift is received after death, right?
A Living God does not require death to deliver His Inheritance. Jesus died FOR us.

Jesus, if he existed, did die, and so will you. All this promised stuff comes after you die. Your death is an imminent promise.
You may wonder "where do these people of Christ Consciousness go then?"

Do you know of any Christians that didn't die?
Everybody is going to die. [/QUOTE]
this is the point of John 3:8
"The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit."
As he says to Nicodemus, if you don't understand earthly matters, how can we begin to talk to you about heavenly life? They speak their testimony. One day is like a thousand years for the Most High - he gives this gift to those who follow the words of Jesus.
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
