Walking in Christ's steps can be very difficult especially when dealing with disbelievers who become aggressive and hateful.
Do not fear death.......fear the Lord God Almighty.
Matthew 10:28 - Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

...but Christ endured the exact same issues dealing with aggressive and hateful people when he tried to tell them that everybody is God incarnated.
You see, according to popular accounts, Jesus was crucified for spreading the gospel (all are God,) by the aggressive and hateful people who felt his words: "Ye are Gods," was blasphemous.
Perhaps, the people did not want to believe Christ' shocking revelation that everybody and everything IS God?
Perhaps he was attempting to share the knowledge that if they only allowed themselves to accept this truth, that the kingdom of heaven will reveal itself to them slowly but surely, like it did to him, and they too will be able to perform the great work that comes along with self-realization of being the God-head incarnated, that he had managed to accomplish?
Jesus answered them, "Is it not written in your Law, 'I have said you are "gods"'? John 10:14
Just imagine if Christ came back right now and repeated those very words above to you, but you did not know it was him:
Would you become aggressive and hateful and crucify him for telling you this?
Do not fear death.......fear the Lord God Almighty.
Fear the lies instead; it prevents people from awakening to the truth... that sets them free.
Matthew 10:28 - Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
Misguided beliefs are the only thing that can do that...
That makes it pretty clear to me.

That makes it pretty clear to me.
I have a different map. It's not in English. It's in code - a secret code just for me. You wouldn't understand it, and you can't read it.
And even if you could, the map, after all, is not the territory.
Mind your own journey, and leave me out of your herd, please. I know a different way. There are too damn many people on your 'path' who smell bad and walk far too slowly.
I was not talking to you was I? I know your beliefs and you are NOT the only one on ATS so stop thinking every post concerns YOU.....
What are you doing on this thread anyway?
As usual your trolling again......
So we are not God incarnated but mere men.
Ye are gods come from the Old Testament and goes all the way back to the day of Moses.

It seems to me that this thread is about prophecy, not about the religion it came from. Perhaps instead of trying to marginalize Christian beliefs and the attitude of some believers, why not address the issue of said prophecies? Why not put forth an argument that supports or refutes said prophecies instead of putting forth preconceived attitudes for or against said religion?
It seems some people are merely here to support their position for or against the religion without really addressing the original post's question about the prophecy itself.
Is prophecy even possible? If so is this particular one credible or not?
IMO the responses should be addressing that and nothing else. The responses should support or refute this prophecy with documented facts and honest arguments. Many here seem to be stirring up emotions rather than dealing with the questions posed by the original poster. By doing this, the intention of this discussion is effectively being derailed.

Also;
DAYS in the Bible; actually refer to YEARS!
So end of days should be END OF YEARS!
When they say; DIED ON THE CROSS AND ON THE THIRD DAY ROSE AGAIN. They are talking about YEARS! Not days!
Died; and three YEARS ROSE AGAIN.
Very interesting; when you consider that they changed the date of this astrological CROSSING ... to put it out of sync by THREE YEARS!???
