In this episode, we’re going to explore different viewpoints on the end of the world—otherwise known as the apocalypse.

“1)But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. 2)For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, slanderers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3)unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, 4)treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5)holding to a form of [b]godliness although they have denied its power; avoid such people as these.“ —2 Timothy 3:1-5 NASB

Patterns Observed:

While we do not agree on the details, the common thread is that most religions acknowledge we are currently in a state of moral decay and trying to get back to an Eden-like state.

Disclaimer:

I believe that all religions and cultures trace their origin back to Adam and Eve. While I believe the Bible to be the true and preserved Word of God, I believe that we can find bits of truth in other religions and cultures. The purpose of this series is to examine the themes that remained universal to highlight universal knowledge--in this case, the pattern of moving from a time of morality and spiritual goodness into sin and immorality, then back to morality.
