I love it when we get an end of days prediction from the religious. It gives us all an opportunity to come right back at you when it passes without incident.
You see the most frustrating thing about being an atheist is that when you and I drift off into the nothingness only to live on through progeny and memories (and maybe the odd picture) I don't get to rub your nose in it.
But you fruitcakes come up with an end-of-it-all prediction - YIPPEE!!!
Can't wait.
The Bible makes a promise. It promises a new Robe (Body) and a new Crown (Mind). The crown is cast on the sea of glass. Glass is transparent. In other words, your memories return and there is no veil. All the lives you lived are restored to your remembrance. Sin is forgotten.
When sheep travel the wilderness in cycles, the Shepherd sheers the wool season after season. It is washed, then woven into a Robe. That Robe is promised to the Saints.
Revelation 6
10 They called out in a loud voice, “How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?” 11 Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the full number of their fellow servants, their brothers and sisters,[e] were killed just as they had been.
First, we must be desecrated by the wicked of the Earth. When you see it happen, as it is already happening before you eyes on the news, know that I was right. Behind those deaths, the verse above is occurring.
Read the thread. This time, read it for understanding. This is evidence you wanted. Now you have it. Once you know, you cannot unknow.

No. You should hit the floor and ask forgiveness. Then, start giving to others instead of taking. This is the key. It's simple if I give you an example.
When you smoke, you get health problems. When cancer comes, the entire family suffers. When you spend money on a Ferrari instead of a VW, your money is spent on you. This is taking reward away from its potential to do good for others. The same example of smoking is one of taking reward that ends in suffering. Flip this.
If you go to the gym, you gain health. To do this, you suffer first. Suffering brings reward for you and those you love. It lasts.
Here is the key to this. Taking leads to suffering later. Suffering leads to reward later.

To bear fruit, you must first have faith and reverence for God. From there, you suffer for others (bearing Fruit for them). Baptism is the key. You MUST be born again. If you bear fruit, that new fruit has seeds to take you the next 1000 years (Day of Peace). If not, no water. Fire only. Water puts out fire and you MUST be born again. When you give suffering for others, everyone benefits, including you.
Matthew 3
7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to where he was baptizing, he said to them: “You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? 8 Produce fruit in keeping with repentance. 9 And do not think you can say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham. 10 The ax is already at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.
11 “I baptize you with water for repentance. But after me comes one who is more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. 12 His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor, gathering his wheat into the barn and burning up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”
The harvesters are coming. Will they find fruit on your stalk?
