Verily, art thou surest about that which thou hast written in thy post?

2 Peter 3

1 This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance:

2 That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:

3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,

4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.

5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:

6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:

7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

What’s weird about the rainbow photo is that photog was the only one in the city who saw it and/or didn’t have his cell phone ready to take a photo?

Weird. I take photos of beautiful rainbows all the time, even when I’m driving. The guy said he was on his balcony, but he only got this one shot?

I think that’s odd. I didn’t say fake. I think it’s odd. I’d be all over that photo with every camera I owned as fast as I could. Also why is the skyline so muddy behind the photo of the rainbow?

Just questions.

Yup

Wikipedia

[Jack Hydrazine]

I hope the Muzzies have stocked up on extra Mecca Cola in Saudi Arabia. They’re gonna need it!

[Perseverando]

You know what they say about Wikipedia. I peeked, but it wasn’t written in King James, so I’m not sure I should trust it. (Ha. Ha. Right?) Sorry, couldn’t help myself.

Anyway, I enjoyed the chat. Night all! I’m outta here. Freep on!

[VanShuyten]

But they’re so earnest on Coast to Coast.

How could you NOT trust them?

[lbryce]

Yes, despite your comment, I knew that. But you’re missing the point. I don’t believe in any of it, so it doesn’t matter if I quoted the Bible correctly or not. To the contrary, I made my comments to be cynical and sarcastic precisely because I don’t believe it.

Acts 2

16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;

17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:

18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:

19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:

20 The sun shall be turned into darkness (the sandstorm?), and the moon into blood (the upcoming eclipse?), before the great and notable day of the Lord come:

21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

[RginTN]

I didn’t think that any discerning Christian believed in that malarky.

I’m thinking the day will come when you will remember making that statement and regret it.

Part of the problem with looking for a modern Hebrew word for a descriptive set of actions. "The sabbath year (shmita Hebrew: שמיטה‎, literally "release") also called the sabbatical year or sheviit (Hebrew: שביעית‎, literally "seventh") is the seventh year of the seven-year agricultural cycle mandated by the Torah for the Land of Israel,[1] and still observed in contemporary Judaism." "A sabbath (shmita) year is mentioned several times in the Bible by name or by its pattern of six years of activity and one of rest: Book of Exodus: "You may plant your land for six years and gather its crops. But during the seventh year, you must leave it alone and withdraw from it. The needy among you will then be able to eat just as you do, and whatever is left over can be eaten by wild animals. This also applies to your vineyard and your olive grove." (Exodus 23:10–11[8]) Book of Leviticus: "God spoke to Moses at Mount Sinai, telling him to speak to the Israelites and say to them: When you come to the land that I am giving you, the land must be given a rest period, a sabbath to God. For six years you may plant your fields, prune your vineyards, and harvest your crops, but the seventh year is a sabbath of sabbaths for the land. It is God's sabbath during which you may not plant your fields, nor prune your vineyards. Do not harvest crops that grow on their own and do not gather the grapes on your unpruned vines, since it is a year of rest for the land. [What grows while] the land is resting may be eaten by you, by your male and female slaves, and by the employees and resident hands who live with you. All the crops shall be eaten by the domestic and wild animals that are in your land." (Leviticus 25:1–7)[9] "And if ye shall say: 'What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we may not sow, nor gather in our increase'; then I will command My blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth produce for the three years. And ye shall sow the eighth year, and eat of the produce, the old store; until the ninth year, until her produce come in, ye shall eat the old store." (Leviticus 25:20–22)[9] Book of Deuteronomy: "At the end of every seven years, you shall celebrate the remission year. The idea of the remission year is that every creditor shall remit any debt owed by his neighbor and brother when God's remission year comes around. You may collect from the alien, but if you have any claim against your brother for a debt, you must relinquish it. ..." (Deuteronomy 15:1–6)[10] "Moses then gave them the following commandment: 'At the end of each seven years, at a fixed time on the festival of Sukkoth, after the year of release, when all Israel comes to present themselves before God your Lord, in the place that He will choose, you must read this Torah before all Israel, so that they will be able to hear it. 'You must gather together the people, the men, women, children and proselytes from your settlements, and let them hear it. They will thus learn to be in awe of God your Lord, carefully keeping all the words of this Torah. Their children, who do not know, will listen and learn to be in awe of God your Lord, as long as you live in the land which you are crossing the Jordan to occupy'." (Deuteronomy 31:10–13)[11] Book of Jeremiah: Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel: I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying: "At the end of seven years ye shall let go every man his brother that is a Hebrew, that hath been sold unto thee, and hath served thee six years, thou shalt let him go free from thee"; but your fathers hearkened not unto Me, neither inclined their ear." (Jeremiah 34:13–14)[12] Book of Nehemiah: "and if the peoples of the land bring ware or any victuals on the sabbath day to sell, that we would not buy of them on the sabbath, or on a holy day; and that we would forego the seventh year, and the exaction of every debt." (Nehemiah 10:31)[13] Books of Chronicles: "... And them that had escaped from the sword carried he away to Babylon; and they were servants to him and his sons until the reign of the kingdom of Persia; to fulfil the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had been paid her sabbaths; for as long as she lay desolate she kept sabbath, to fulfil threescore and ten years. (2 Chronicles 36:20–21)[14] Books of Kings: (Isaiah speaking) "... And this is the sign for you: This year you eat what grows of itself, and the next year what springs from that, and in the third year, sow and reap and plant vineyards and eat their fruit. And the survivors of the House of Judah that have escaped shall regenerate its stock below and produce boughs above." (2 Kings 19:20–30).'

sorry about that post. I know paragraphs are my friend....it was formatted properly before I hit post......too early in morning brain fog won’t let me think about it any more

[ifinnegan]

“I don’t believe in any of it, so it doesn’t matter if I quoted the Bible correctly or not.”

You think like a liberal.

Dumb. No logic. Smug with no reason to be.

This may be the dumbest thing I ever read on FR.

Dum-buh.

Rainbows, as far as I know are always above the ground and if more than 6 feet high, usually above peoples' heads. If we can't agree on this, then someone has some serious issues.

Rainbows are an optical phenomenon - like an image in a mirror or like a mirage in the desert. They may have an "apparent" location ("up in the sky", etc.) and an "apparent" size ("all the way from the TransAmerica Building to the Coit Tower"), but in actual fact, they don't exist in a concrete sense and therefore have no "real" location.

That crane collapsing in Mecca.... Proof of God’s existence!

Seems to me that wnd is going off the deep end and putting way too much credence in a few people. Even going to the point of calling a person a prophet who interprets several patterns into some big money. Not saying I dismiss it all but I think they have crossed a line. I just wonder if and when the big events don’t materialize this month they will can the books, movies, and cruises and kill the false prophet like in the OT?

[Apple Pan Dowdy]

"...Even going to the point of calling a person a prophet who interprets several patterns..."

If you listen to Jonathan Cahn you would hear him say that he is WARNING because the signs seem so overwhelming. For months now he has said that the signs seem to point to God's possible judgement.

He is not calling himself a "profit", just as the guys at the National Hurricane Center are not "profits", yet when they see convincing signs of a hurricane approaching, they warn. They tell people to prepare, board up, maybe even evacuate, and intelligent people listen and act accordingly. If the predicted hurricane does not come ashore, people don't condemn the guys at the NHC of being a false profit and stone them, now do they?

The signs Cahn speaks of are a warning to us. You can listen and prepare just in case, and that preparation just might be good for you for many other reasons, or you can party-on, make fun of God, think yourself invincible, and risk it all. It's your choice. Personally, I have spent a good deal of time lately on my knees praying that whatever is coming our way, God will prepare me spiritually for it.
