Please elaborate
Please
On 22 February 2003, the Daily Telegraph (London, England) published a front-page story announcing Isaac Newton's prediction that the world would end in 2060.
Did Newton believe the world would end in 2060?
No, not in a literal sense. For Newton, 2060 A.D. would be more like a new beginning. It would be the end of an old age, and the beginning of a new erathe era Jews refer to the Messianic age and the era premillenarian Christians term the Millennium or Kingdom of God.
What did Newton believe would happen around the time of 2060?
Newton was convinced that Christ would return around this date and establish a global Kingdom of peace. "Babylon" (the corrupt Trinitarian Church) would also fall and the true Gospel would be preached openly. Before the Second Coming, the Jews would return to Israel according to the predictions made in biblical prophecy. The Temple would be rebuilt as well. Slightly before, or around the time of Christ's return, the great battle of Armageddon would take place when a series of nations (the "Gog and Magog" confederacy of Ezekiel's prophecy) invade Israel. Christ and the saints would then intervene to establish a worldwide 1000-year Kingdom of God on earth. Citing the prophet Micah Newton believed this Kingdom would usher in a time of peace and prosperity, a time when people would "beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks" and when "nations shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more" (Micah 4:3). Although the documentary chose not to focus on this message of hope, Newton did believe that there would be a positive outcome to the war and destruction that would take place at the end of time. Newton took seriously the prophetic vision of world peace found in Isaiah 2 and Micah 4a vision that sees Jerusalem as the beginning of peace. It is thus perhaps appropriate that the largest collection of Newton's prophetic papers now resides in Jerusalem.
Isaac Newton Apocalypse Prediction
As hard as I find any of these predictions to believe, I do prefer hearing of the ones that say good things will happen.
