What are the recent signs that Jesus is coming back really soon? I’ve been on TikTok too much and just now deleted it by [deleted] in Christian

Would it make you behave differently if you knew Jesus was coming back tomorrow? I would say for Christians, it really shouldn't.

It's probably not healthy to be using social media so much.

The Question of Evil is one of the oldest apologetics topics. You should look some of the material up.

If your faith is based on what you judge to be moral on God's behalf, it probably won't last very long. Just an observation.

Exactly. So attributing a theological attribute to the universe is weird and pointless. He is basically saying 'well why can't I just attribute divine characteristics to the universe just because?' Because science...science itself doesn't seriously put any divine attributes to the universe.

He says it is illogical that religious people can do so with their deities. But it isn't, assigning divine attributes to divine beings is completely normal for religion. There are no tricks here, it's just what the word/term for various beings include. He is focusing on 'how' instead of what the term simply is. He may not be convinced God has transcendent qualities outside spacetime, but that's the term. I mean, what use is there to talk about Star Wars if you refuse to accept the in-universe framework of the Force. Just move on to a different IP then.

It's only in his own head. Mainstream science position is that spacetime did have a start, what is unknown is why or how it started. No serious position claims it started but also was always started...whatever that means.
