I wonder if that 'rosy' saying of 'Peace and Security.....' will really prove to be a calm or just the saying of Peace and Security.... ?
I thought it was interesting that before I retired about year 2000 the guys in the garage and in the showroom seemed to agree that the 'end' would be in 30...
The sign was seen from 1914, not this war.
This war along with all the others that have been (since the great war), or ever will be, is only an ongoing process, until the finale.
Things continue to advance from bad to worst.
However, the time will come when there will be calm before the storm...

I find coupled with the world scene today, it is just as Jesus said that the good news about God's kingdom government being declared on a global international scale as it is now done as never before in history.
This means we are nearing the 'final...
What about the previous two verses:
The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
John, "The Gospel of John - ευαγγέλιο του ιωάννη", 4:19
In context, Samaritans...
Jesus clearly identified "the Jews" as those through whom salvation (in the form of the Messiah) would come.
John 4:21-24...
"Jesus said to her [the Samaritan woman] : “Believe me, woman, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father. 22 You...
1Thessalonians5:3
“For when they shall say, peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”
I’m glad some are recognizing the trend! For us as JW’s, it continues to confirm that these are the Last Days. — Matthew 24:7-14 (verse 8 says these are a “beginning of pangs of distress.” We believe it began in 1914); Luke 21:25-26 is especially poignant for our day. (BTW, the “sea”, mentioned...
I see this view fits this OP perfectly, I would say, knowing the views of my JW friends, that the JW would definitely play a part in the unfolding of the verses quoted in the OP post.
Good thing is, you know we will only offer you all peace and goodwill.

Since God gave Daniel information about the March of world powers 500 years before Jesus walked the earth, it was hardly a secret to those in the spirit realm as to when the close of the age would come.
Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar saw a huge image in a dream sent by God. It was made of...
Of course this is not it. But it does show that they are still working towards it.
"Whenever it is that they are saying, “Peace and security!” then sudden destruction is to be instantly on them, just like birth pains on a pregnant woman, and they will by no means escape."-1Thessalonians5:3...
A new world order is prophesied in the Bible actually...one from God that will bring about true peace and security and righteousness to the earth (2 Peter 3:13).....but there is also one that will be attempted by man.....a pseudo mimic of the kingdom of God, that is brought about by humans with...
Sure, why not.
I mean after the nearly infinite number of failed "ends" I am more than justified in being skeptical.
And to be flat out honest about it, overwhelmingly underwhelmed by yet another "end" that does not occur.
Sadly, it will be another miss that is ignored.
