text: in revelation 6:8 was aids predicted? in revelatoins 6:8 it talks about 1/4 of the earth's population by sword, famine, plague and wild animals. could this be a sign that we are near the end? revelations i think is filled with alot of metafors that leaves alot to debate.. the rapture is near i think because the bible talks about not attacking gods people and all the countries around iseral is coming toeghter and they might attack them soon the a great fire will come from above(gods fire,nuke,many other ideas nobody knows) so to me that is another sign that the rapture is near so keep in the faith because jesus will sneak in like a theif and take us(the saved) away..we will never know when..ps i like revelations
