[A LOT]

David,
Let's not forget.  A LOT can happen in the course of a year.  I believe that one year from now, the U.S. may not be a super power.  Some terrorist attacks, an economic crash, and war could definitely accelerate the fall of the USA.  I'm not wishing it, but we have to admit that world conditions are favorable at this point.  In my far less than perfect "human" thinking, I personally see twobombs time frame of the end time events as being reasonable.  I think it's coming a lot faster than most people think.  I consider John Hagee to be one of the most prominent end time teachers.  He has recently been saying that he believes that we are down to a matter of months before the rapture.

Sammy,
Excuse me?  What do you mean "It's bad enough it might be so"?  What's bad about a true believer being transformed into his heavenly body and living for eternity with the Lord?  And looking back at my post I didn't say I wished anything.  The only thing I "wish" for is the Lord's will.  I never said "I wish the rapture would happen in the next year".  I said that A4C's prediction on the timing of the rapture seems reasonable considering all things.  Last time I checked it was called "The Blessed Hope".  So why would that be a bad thing?  If you are walking with the Lord that "blessed Hope" should be anything but bad.

I'll buy that.  If I had to take an educated guess (which is all we can do), I would say a year or so left till we are "flying" sounds reasonable (given the current state of the world, all things considered).  Any other opinions out there on the timing of the rapture?  John Hagee is saying about the same thing on the timing of the rapture.  It's getting very close.  That's hard to argue with.

[all]

To everyone on this forum,
I do believe that George W. has made quite a few stupid mistakes in his life.  I believe that we all have.  I also believe in the saving grace of our Lord.  We have all done things in our past that would make people say, "There's no way they are a born-again Christian - remember all the stuff they did 20 years ago?".  Thank God that we can be forgiven of our sins and can be transformed with the Holy Spirit.  HOWEVER, as I have stated previously on this thread, I am leary, to say the least, of anyone who was involved in the Skull & Bones at Yale University (which is directly connected to the Illuminati).  Guy's, I say this in love.  Don't believe everything you see and hear on TV.  Don't just read your daily paper and say "That president of our's is one heck of a guy".  Dig a little deeper.  Do some research.  Most notably on the Skull & Bones Society at Yale.  Bush has admitted to being a member of this "Secret Society".  At the very least, I believe that you may question his claims about being a Christian after looking into this.

Sammy,
I guess I'll have to be the one (the only one) who "might" agree with you.  People on this thread, let me just ask you one thing.  Have you ever took the time to do some research on Bush? - That doesn't mean just watching the nightly news, or reading the USA Today.  Some of the stuff you might find out may change your opinion.  Anyone ever heard of the Skull & Bones at Yale?  Our president it seems is affiliated with them.  If you haven't heard of this "secret society", I suggest you look into it.

twobombs,
              What's up with your rapture, tribulation prediction at the end of your posts?  Just curious.
