    I was hoping to have a friendly discussion as to perceptions about Matthew 24:14. See questions below.
    1. What and why is it good news? 2. Who is preaching this good news of the Kingdom earth wide? 3. What is it the end of? 4.

Who is preaching this good news of the Kingdom earth wide? 3. What is it the end of? 4. Have you personally been given a witness either in person, telephone, letter, etc?(Matthew 24:14) And this good news of the Kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.Notify me of new answers

Blocking out what the Bible actually says with comments like: "Then why didn't the world end in 1918 with the Spanish flu?" to me is equivalent when some theist say "If evolution is true, why are there still monkeys?" I don't know any atheist that thinks that humans came from monkeys as that is a misconception of the part of some theist because they don't really listen to what is being said. In turn, comments made by some atheist and theist is because they do not really read or else don't understand what the Bible is saying.  less

Otherwise, they will continue to multiply, and if a war breaks out, they will join our enemies and fight against us and leave the country.”11 So they appointed chiefs of forced labor over them to oppress them with hard labor, and they built storage cities for Pharʹaoh, namely, Piʹthom and Ra·amʹses. 12 But the more they would oppress them, the more they would multiply and the more they kept spreading out, so they felt sick with fear because of the Israelites. 13 Consequently, the Egyptians forced the Israelites into harsh slavery. 14 They made their life bitter with hard labor, as they worked with clay mortar and bricks and in every ...    less

God's sovereignty is a serious issue that has been challenged by Satan some 6,000 years ago. Man has tried every kind of government to rule himself without God to no avail. Jesus is the one that Jehovah has designated to have the legal right to rule mankind. Everyone has to choose who they will follow. I think I have seen before that you have some belief in God and the Bible? Have you thought about why a loving God would allow suffering? Some reasons I have been given by some I meet in the ministry when asking them why God allows suffering are 1. People suffer and die because God needs another angel. For example years ago a little girl in Argyle fell in and drowned in a septic tank while playing hide and seek. Back then when it was in the news we were talking about it with a business associate. She said something like wasn't that wonderful that all of those people were looking all over the property for her but God kept them from finding her because he needed another angel....    less

But according to the Bible, it's the end times for the wicked.

    QUESTION 4
    Has All Life Descended From a Common Ancestor?

    Darwin thought that all life might be traced to a common ancestor. He imagined that the history of life on earth resembled a grand tree. Later, others believed that this “tree of life” started as a single trunk with the first simple cells. New species branched from the trunk and continued to divide into limbs, or families of plants and animals, and then into twigs, all the species within the families of plants and animals alive today. Is that really what happened?
