| 0:00.0 | Welcome once again to the Prophecy Prose podcast. Jeff, what are we talking about today? |
| 0:11.0 | Man, we are talking about Hollywood's obsession with the apocalypse. I mean, isn't that crazy? There's so many movies that have been produced that have come out about the end times, about apocalyptic events, |
| 0:22.0 | past, present, and future, that what's the deal with that? I mean, is there something there we can |
| 0:26.7 | talk about? |
| 0:36.0 | A couple of years ago, I wrote a book called As It Was in the Days of Noah, and just talking about prophecy and how Jesus said the end times will mirror the days of Noah. |
| 0:44.3 | One of the reasons I wrote that book, Todd, was because they were coming out with this movie called Noah with Russell Crow. |

| 1:31.3 | And when you ask that question to churchgoers, about 77% believe we're living in the end times. |
| 1:37.6 | But I think it's very important to consider the fact that we're not just looking at the world, |
| 1:42.8 | looking at the headlines, looking at, you know, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram feed, and then getting our theology and our |
| 1:47.8 | beliefs based on that. We want to make sure the Bible is our GPS on this thing and make sure |
| 1:53.1 | that what scripture says is what we follow. But even with that, there are a lot of ways, |
