THE END IS NEAR dadman1240: The course of the present age is to be marked by wars .. famines .. pestilences .. persecutions .. false Christs .. and religious systems .. increasing in intensity as the age nears its end .. and culminating in tribulation such as the world has never seen .. nor ever shall see again . . . Jesus Christ shall suddenly .. unexpectedly and gloriously appear .. coming in the clouds of heaven with his hosts .. blessed are they who cherish the “blessed hope” Titus 2:11-14 .. and live in hourly expectation of his coming . . . . the signs of the near return of Jesus are national Mt 24: 6 .. religious Mt 24:11 .. missionary Mt 24:14 .. and Jewish Mt 24:32 .. fig tree a type of Israel  ghostgeek: The course of every age is marked by wars, famines, persecutions, taxes and religions. It's when these things stop happening that you'll know the "second coming" is about to happen. Myself, I give it another billion years before I have to start to worry. dadman1240: whatever you believe man .... whatever you believe ............ Jesus: And this gospel of the kingdom > http://dadmansabode.com/ < will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations .. and > then < the end will come (Edited by dadman1240) ghostgeek: Looks like Jesus has a long wait ahead of Him as no religious text is taught to the whole world. ghostgeek: I have a feeling that the message isn't getting through to the mob that lives in Qom. Personally, I wouldn't try selling the "Word" in any Muslim land right now. Not unless you want to be answered with bullets. dadman1240: it doesn't mean that it will be received by all ..... just preached .... God knows those who will receive and those who will reject ghostgeek: Try preaching the Christian faith in a Muslim country and see what happens to you. I doubt your ministry would last very long. dadman1240: you can't crush the truth .... it is what it is ... no matter where ... http://dadmansabode.com/ ghostgeek: The Christians know the Truth, the muslims know the Truth, the Jews know the Truth, the Hindus know the Truth, everybody knows the Truth and they all contradict each other. So what's true Truth and what's false Truth? dadman1240: no such thing as "false" truth .... truth is truth and false is false .... two people arguing / opposing each other .. one is true / the other wrong .... they might even both be wrong .... but truth does not oppose truth ............ ask God to show you His truth .... you will only find this truth in his son (the one whom he sent) .... http://dadmansabode.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=56#p56 << good luck (Edited by dadman1240) dadman1240: if I handed you a counterfit 20 dollar bill .... does that mean that all 20 dollar bills are fake ?? .. not at all ... they all seem to look alike .... Jesus is the light of the World ... if you walk with him, you will never walk in darkness .. http://dadmansabode.com/b/04/040802.mp3 ghostgeek: Why should I believe a Christian rather than a Muslim or a Jew? All say they speak the truth yet they can't all be right. There is no test to distinguish truth from falsehood in the religious arena.  Zanjan: Ghost, the Bible never said there wouldn't be any taxes when Christ returned. That's one surprise you'll never see. dadman1240: no taxes .... Heaven on earth indeed .... come quickly Lord Jesus > http://dadmansabode.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=740#p740 < ghostgeek: Zanjan, it hardly seems appropriate to think God would be using something as crude as money in the kingdom He's going to establish on Earth, so your talk of taxes must mean something other than a financial impost. | Religion Chat Room 41 People Chatting Similar Conversations |
