Today we dive into the fascinating and often misunderstood topic of Armageddon and eschatology. WE explore why some Christians are preoccupied with the end times despite scriptural advice to the contrary and discuss Isaac Asimov's optimistic views on humanity's future. We ask the question, "If Asimov could see it, why can't Christians?" Personal stories and historical examples, such as the Millerite movement, highlight the recurring nature of apocalyptic predictions. We conclude with a call to live in the present and focus on loving one's neighbor rather than worrying about the potential end of the world.
