I'm not an expert on the matter of the Doomsday Clock. But I would be pretty certain it's not going to be set to after midnight.

 

Midnight is the Apocalypse. 

 

Oh wait, I see what you did there.

Well, there it is....90 seconds to midnight.  The closest it's ever been.  Mankind is scared, rightly so.

The site also has a series of maps that illustrate the mess we are in. Only Jehovah can fix it.

Scientists Move the Doomsday Clock Forward—What Does the Bible Say?

 

On January 24, 2023, scientists set the Doomsday Clock a closer to midnight, which stands for the end of the world.

 

“The ‘Doomsday Clock’ symbolizing the perils to humanity moved its closest ever to midnight on Tuesday amid the Ukraine war, nuclear tensions and the climate crisis.”—AFP International Text Wire.

 

“Scientists revealed on Tuesday that the ‘Doomsday Clock’ has been moved up to 90 seconds before midnight—the closest humanity has ever been to armageddon.”—ABC News.

 

“A panel of international scientists has warned that humanity’s continued existence is at greater risk than ever before.”—The Guardian.

 

Is the end of humanity and our planet approaching? Do we need to fear what the future holds? What does the Bible say?.....

Established in 1947, the clock was initially moved forward, or back, by whole minute increments until 2017, when it was moved 30 seconds forward:

 

Awake! Number 6, 2017 - Is the World out of Control or Not?

Using the symbolic Doomsday Clock to illustrate mankind’s proximity to a global disaster, scientists moved the clock’s minute hand forward by 30 seconds. The Doomsday Clock is now set at merely two and a half minutes to midnight—nearer to a global catastrophe than at any time in over 60 years!

Most recently the clock was moved forward by 10 seconds - the smallest movement the clock has ever made - and now stands at "90 seconds to midnight". Why do the hands move, and how do they calculate it?

There will be an 'after midnight' though. 2017 Awake No 6.

 

Love that picture.

 

At "midnight" it will be the great war of God. 1 Minute after "Midnght" it will be paradise.
