Anyway have you guys seen David Mitchell pascals wager rant in relation to atheism?

blaise pascal wager doesn't apply. one's eternity is not based on believing in God's existence or not. satan believes and trembles, and will be forever sealed off from the new creation in a place called hell. this U. is going to disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire and God will then create the new creation where evil is forever sealed off. the timing will be after the 1000 year reign of Christ on the earth, proceeding that is a 7 year tribulation period, preceding that is an unknown period which we are current in but there are signs given approaching the end of this period. israel will be a nation (fulfilled), israel will sign a comprehensive middle east peace treaty assuring their security brokered by the antichrist (unfulfilled).
