End of the World in 2012?

The Nostradamus Channel (sometimes called the History Channel) has touted again and again that the end of the world will be some time in December 2012.

Christians accepting the idea that Mayans in the ancient Americas can be the carriers of prophesies from God is a puzzle to me. Do Christians really believe that God would use a pagan people with a pagan calendar to convey an exact date about the end of the world?

Consider:

1. Jeremiah 10:2 -- Thus says the LORD, "Do not learn the way of the Gentiles; do not be dismayed at the signs of heaven, for the Gentiles are dismayed at them.”

2. If the two witnesses are supposed to preach 3-1/2 years before the end, where are they?

3. Why would God use a pagan calendar to pinpoint the end, but not the Hebrew calendar?

Don’t be terrified by the signs of heaven like the pagans. Maybe the Mayan calendar ends in 2012 because the ancient timekeepers got tired of counting and went on to something else.

  1. Perhaps the Mayans were more attuned and receptive to receiving messages from a Divine Intelligence, or God, if you will. And perhaps their idea of God was more open and all-encompassing than the others on earth who were more rigid in their beliefs. When we are closed minded in our religious beliefs, we can miss God's messages.

    Every single human has access to this Creator, this Universal Intelligence, but many people miss out on this access because of dualistic thinking. Only when we are One with The One are we then aligned to His frequencies.
