Computer Programmer Claims Apocalypse Coming By End Of 2016

Computer programmer predicts end of world by 2016

A computer programmer has predicted that the world will end by the end of this year, based on a series of mathematical calculations.

Nora Roth claims that Jesus will return to Earth at the end of 2016, resulting in the apocalypse that will leave the Earth completely sterile for 1,000 years.

Dailymail.co.uk reports:

At that point, ‘everlasting righteousness will be brought in’, and Earth will be ‘left to rest’ for a millennium.

The claims have been made on Ms Roth’s website, MarkBeast, in a post called ‘2016 The Time of the End.’

Ms Roth writes: ‘In the fall [autumn] of 2016, the 6,000 years of sin on earth will come to an end, everlasting righteousness will be brought in, and Jesus will come again to take His people to heaven.’

‘Then the Earth will begin its 1,000 years of rest.’

Ms Roth believes that each person has a probation time on Earth.

Ms Roth’s calculations are based on an excerpt from the Bible’s Book of Daniel, which tells the story of the Jewish people’s forced relocation to Babylon.

In the story, Gabriel says that ‘Seventy sevens are decreed […] to put an end to sin.’

Ms Roth believes that ‘sevens’ refers to a Jubilee cycle, which is a unit of time.

The Bible states that the working week should be six days long, with a rest day on Sunday.

This also extends on a larger scale, and Ms Roth says that God ‘told the children of Israel to plant and to harvest their land for six years and then let the land rest the seventh year.’

A Jubilee Cycle consists of seven of the larger units, followed by a year of rest – a total of 50 years.

Ms Roth writes: ‘The 70 Jubilees began in 1416 BC when God’s children entered Canaan.

‘The 70 Jubilees will end 3,431 years later in 2016 AD.’

But Nigel Watson, author of the UFO Investigations Manual, says the predictions have little evidence to them.

Mr Watson told MailOnline: ‘Obscure numbers and codes are loved by fearmongers, and by using them to predict the end of the world, they show they have an insight into the mind of God and/or the workings of the Universe.

‘Using knowledge of past predictions, and the fact we are still here, I predict we shouldn’t worry about this latest revelation.’

This is not the first claim that the world will end in 2016 due to the second coming of Jesus.

In July, a video posted on YouTube claimed that a magnetic polar flip would trigger worldwide earthquakes and a ‘rolling cloud’ that would destroy the world.

End Times Prophecies, who posted the video, claimed that the Earth is currently overdue a magnetic flip, and predicted it would happen in July as it overlapped with the ‘second coming of Jesus.’

Luckily for us, the world did not experience a magnetic polar flip, and did not end in July.

  1. In scripture, the wording “The end of the world”, does not refer to the end of Humanity and total destruction of the Earth. But, it refers to the end of man’s system, man’s rule, man’s ways etc, to be replaced by the “Kingdom of God” at Jesus Christ’s certain return.One can scoff all he likes, it will happen! None of God’s prophetic events has failed, and none will! Times and dates are not given for very good reason, but the season and conditions which will prevail just prior to Christ’s return are given; that is why Christ Commanded His chosen elect to watch and pray and be alert and ready, as he will come as a thief in the night, when one least expects HIM! On a day he is not expected! And the season and conditions of today are showing that Christ’s return is nearing, and prophetic sign post is what His elect are watching for.

  2. Yeah it’s bad enough we have religious loonies telling us this sh*t. Now the dam computers have been indoctrinated!
