How am I doing that? I am one of 8 billion now. Think about things before you post. You are just reacting.
We're all among the "too many".

Suicide is unforgivable sin.
Another libel against the Jews.

The earth wasn’t created 6000 years ago. The Israelites created Genesis roughly 2500 years ago.
Christian’s are always saying that Christ hasn’t returned and still is yet to appear. They keep changing the date.
But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. (2 Peter 3:10)
A thief comes in undetected and is gone before people see him.
So Christ could have come ages ago if Christians misinterpreted the signs and await the fulfilment of what their imaginations have conceived. And so they will keep revising the time of His Second Coming to - ‘later’?? It seems like a good policy to keep putting off Christ’s return indefinitely as it keeps those in power in power indefinitely.
So now we have rapture in the 6000th year. Lol. And you can bet that date will be revised to a latter date when Christ is not seen riding on a cloud in the sky! Lol
So the date will ad infinitum be moved again and again to a future time slot. It appears from what I have observed that according to Christians, Christ is going to always be returning at some time in the future but is never going to actually appear.

Hello guestfortruth, thank you.
5783 is it correct?
In the calendar debate, these are known as the “missing years.”
A Lot Later Than You Think
It becomes clear from the overwhelming weight of evidence that the sor is off by nearly 200 years. This is shown by a vast number of parallel historical sources, including early Jewish sources—all of which do parallel biblical sources. And this is a conclusion accepted by a large number, if not a majority, of Jewish scholars and rabbis. Still, in the name of tradition, the sor calendar continues to be utilized.
This traditional yearly calendar used today throughout Israel is what is otherwise known as an anno mundi calendar (a.m.; Latin for “in the year of the world”). This calendar counts forward from the biblical creation week to the present day (actually, it is counted from one year before the creation week, starting with a so-called “Year of Emptiness”). The Gregorian calendar, on the other hand, is an anno domini calendar (a.d.; Latin for “in the year of the Lord,” otherwise referenced as c.e.) and centers around the birth of Jesus (albeit this date is highly dubious; internal New Testament evidence points to a more accurate birth year of 4 b.c.e.).
After all, the Bible contains a strong warning about the end of the “age of man.”
It describes a time of world war and suffering just prior to the arrival of the Messiah—a “time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time” (Daniel 12:1; see also Jeremiah 30:7). In fact, so great will be the destruction that, if the Messiah didn’t come, there would be “no flesh saved alive.” (Is it coincidence that only in the past several decades has mankind developed weapons of mass destruction capable of literally wiping all life off the face of the Earth, many times over? Indeed, it is often stated that our greatest problem today is that of “human survival.”) Other biblical passages infer that time will be “cut short” in order to save mankind from otherwise inevitable extinction.
As the Prophet Daniel continues to describe, the Messiah will come and stop the madness. Verse 1 continues, with a promise from God to protect His people: “[A]nd at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.” (In the words of Jeremiah 30:7: “Alas! for that day is great, So that none is like it; And it is a time of trouble unto Jacob, But out of it shall he be saved.”) God then instructs Daniel: “But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased” (verse 4; again, uncannily predictive of our modern “Information Age,” not to mention our worldwide accumulation of weapons of mass destruction).
No man can pinpoint the exact date we are at in history. We have clearly established that (and the Bible itself states that “ye know neither the day nor the hour” of the Messiah’s coming). What we doknow, following Bible chronology, is that we are within the final years before a.m. 6000.

No, I am not a false prophet. So, I am taking away my words. I was simply not well in the head.

Probably today there are not many of those who expect him to come tomorrow, so tomorrow would be maybe the "when least expected".
But I can understand it is easy to say that he never comes, because:
“Where is the promise of his coming? For, from the day that the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”
2 Pet. 3:4
I don't think it is necessary to know when it happens. That is why even Jesus didn't know it.
But no one knows of that day and hour, not even the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

The Sun is only about halfway through its cycle. It has been shining for billions of years and will continue to shine for billions more.

The warning is ominous I think in that it is admitting the possibility that Christ could have come and gone and been entirely missed by the Christian world.

By what the Bible tells, I think it would not go unnoticed, because:
If therefore they tell you, ‘Behold, he is in the wilderness,’ don’t go out; ‘Behold, he is in the inner chambers,’ don’t believe it. For as the lightning comes forth from the east, and is seen even to the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

The sun a burning consuming mass isn't any human count.
Earth owned clear gas heavens immaculate. Sacrificed when sun body big bang blasted converted everybody it attacked.
Cooler sun star mass trajected in space hitting everything.
Gave earths heavens ignition. Gases.
Isn't any day one.
Now if you're a man human. Men invented theory for human practice science.
How to put a dust into a conversion as a burning light ignition.
If it took days until he removed mass presence to see the water life already existing. Then it did. Seeing man didn't invent life on earth by a thesis.

All that is saying is that He will come from the east just as the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. The fact Christ says He will come like a thief and tells His followers to ‘watch’ implies’ His return could be missed if His followers are not ‘watching’. This puts to bed any automatic recognition as the command and prerequisite is to ‘watch’. Of what use is watching if everyone will automatically see Him?
