Sounds a bit like christian identity stuff to me: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Identit y#The_end_of_the_world_and_Armageddon
But
If you really want the end of the world in the bible you want to check out these guys

They scan the news daily and work out the "rapture index" which is some scale to work out how close we are to the end of the world.
I think they add up all the false prophets multiply by the number of nuclear nations and liberalism and take away the number they first thought of.
Or something like that.
"Nurse!!!! they're out of bed again!!!!!!!"

In the Old Testament the Israelites were commanded not to marry interracially. The purpose of this was to prevent the Israelites being led astray from God by marrying pagans, idol worshippers or heathens.
The New Testament, repeats this point but at a different level for example �Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common?
Scripture tells Christians not to marry unbelievers rather than not to marry outside of their race.

Didgery - I've never heard of that one. I don't think there is any linking of mixing of races with the end times in the Bible, certainly not that I've come across.
However, a few signs the Bible does give that show when we are approaching the end times are : -
Wars and rumours of wars, nation rising against nation, famines, earthquakes, people falling away and growing cold toward God, the Gospel will have been preached in all nations, and of course the man of sin/antichrist being revealed.
(See Matthew 24, 2 Thessalonians 2)
We can know that the end is near from these signs, but only God knows the day and hour.
When the Lord Jesus Christ returns at the very end of the world it will be a great day of rejoicing for those who have accepted Him as their Saviour. But it will be a terrible day for those who have rejected God's love, who have not trusted in Christ.
(Matt 25, Rev 20:11-15)
"Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not" Luke 12:40

Come off of it lighter - Christians have been forecasting the end of the world for millenia.
Tell you what here's a list of over 60 "ends of the world" predicted by various groups in the last couple of thousand years. And it doesn't even include the year 2,000!

If somebody told you something was just about to happen 60 times on the trot and it didn't would you still believe them?

Jake - Like I said in my answer to Didgery, only God knows the actual date of the end of the world.
Anyone who says the world will end on such a date in such a year is a fool. And the web link you gave certainly shows the foolishness of those who thought they knew better than the Bible.
As a Bible believing Christian I don't claim to know WHEN the earth will end, just that it WILL end, in the manner described in the Bible.
Now whether that's in ten years or a hundred years, who knows.
(I'm sure those of an atheistic mind set believe that one day the world will end too, whether by the sun going supernova or some other cosmic calamity)
You said : <If somebody told you something was just about to happen 60 times on the trot and it didn't would you still believe them? >
Well here is something that has happened. 100% of everybody on this earth before us have died. Henry VIII, Churchill, whoever, they have all died, as will you and I some day.
"It is appointed unto men once to die, and then the judgment".
What's important is how we face God. Either with our own unrepented sins and gultiness, or trusting in the merits and blood of the Lord Jesus Christ.
"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" Romans 6:23
That's why the Bible exhorts us to hurry ,('behold, today is the day of salvation'), for we don't know when our own last day will be.

Biblically speaking, races have been mixing since the book of Genesis.
As for the "final judgement" if anyone ever earned eternal damnation it would be "God" as portrayed in the Bible. However, since God does not exist I can only speculate about those for whom it would be fitting to take his place.

mattew 24:v34 "I tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened" Unfortunetly for jesus that generation DID pass away before all these things happened. Guess that makes jesus a false prophet.
Lighter...You and your ilk make me sick with your scare tactics, trying to convert through fear and coercion and your loving God who tortures people forever in his loving lake of fire.
Most people on these threads are RATIONALISTS and your
mythological hateful God has no place in their worldview unlike those that have chosen to give up their minds in place of ancient superstition.No doubt you derive great pleasure in believing that people like myself will burn for all eternety in fire and brimstone while begging for a second chance.
