2012: Why the year could be one of the worst in the planet’s history

Prophecy Sign:  Perilous times

The following article is from the secular website, 2012: The Extinction Protocol. While not a biblically based site, the site certainly has a whole lot of very interesting information regarding the last days we live in. The following article briefly summarizes some of the events we can expect to see in the year 2012. While we do not believe the world will end in 2012, it could in fact be the year when the events of future bible prophecy begin to be played out.

Which brings us to the question: are you ready? Do you know Jesus Christ as your personal saviour? If not, then why not make that decision now? Even the secular world knows traumatic world wide events are just around the corner. Jesus Christ has promised that those that place their trust in him will not go through these very awful events which we call the Tribulation. Coming to know Jesus Christ and making the best friend you will ever know will be the best decision you will ever make in your life.  Please, don't delay. 

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 Timothy 3:1 KJV

Reprinted in it's entirety from the originating website:

The world will not end in 2012 though before it’s over, for many, it may well feel like it. Nearly every dramatic event from social unrest to the crisis in the Middle East appears to be converging in the coming year. Solar activity, though low by previous solar cycles, is starting to increase. NASA said the solar maximum in 2012-2013, when the Sun is expected to reach peak activity, may be the strongest since 1958. 2012 is also expected to be the year of the return of the Mesoamerican pagan deity Quetzalcoatl –setting the stage for the potential appearance of many other entities, and beings also claiming divinity and that they are here to guide humanity through the corridors of this planetary crisis.

Geopolitics: According to senior intelligence officials in the U.S. and Israel, 2012 is the year Iranis supposed to be near nuclear weapons capability. Will this be the year of a military action in Iran? Israel is already contemplating a potential military strike to halt Iran’s nuclear program. 2012 is the year President Putin returns to power just as Russiais undergoing a strong surge in nationalism, is modernizing its nuclear arsenal, seeking closer ties with China, and beefing up its military presence across the globe. Russiahas warned the West and Israelthat a military strike on Iranwould have grave consequences.

The rise of the Dragon: 2012 is the year of the Dragon according to the Chinese calendar. The dragon has long been considered a symbol for China as well as for Satan in the Bible according to the 12th and 13thchapter of Revelation. Will China’s rising economic and military clout collide with western nation’s military intervention in Iranor SE Asia in 2012? A decisive election in Taiwanis also occurring in 2012 that will determine the country’s future relationship with the Chinese mainland. Will Taiwan’s destiny be decided by this election? Many U.S.government observers think so.

Disasters: Earthquakes and natural disasters are increasing. There is also growing unrest at some of the planet’s largest volcanic systems. Will 2012 bring even more ominous threats from mother nature? 2011 is already one of the costliest years for natural disasters on record. Food production and distribution is also under growing threat from natural disasters and extreme weather events, just as the planet’s population exceeds 7 billion people.

Economic crisis: The Eurozone and U.S.sovereign debt crisis is expected to grow dramatically worse in 2012 as debt levels among Western nations continues to soar. As bad as 2011 was, 2012 may push the world into even more adverse uncharted economic territory. Japan, the Eurozone, and even the U.S.is struggling with massive deficits as the economy deteriorates, unemployment rises, and natural disasters increase. The U.S.federal debt could exceed $17 trillion dollars by the end of 2012.

Anarchy: Social unrest is unravelling absolutism in the Middle East and installing theocracies in its place just as the Eurozone debt crisis is deposing prime ministers in Europe. Sectarian violence and civil war is also likely to increase in Muslim countries where the power structure is under threat from fundamentalist insurgency. Also expect even more civil unrest around the world in 2012 as governments crumble, scandals increase, and austerity measures begin to take bite to save countries from economic ruin.
