Yes. In about 800 million years the sun will have heated enough to evaporate the oceans.

I'm not quite sure that the originator of this thread had that kind of response in mind, but: Well played, sir!

Regards,

You are too complacent. Your America will come to a bad end unless you wake up. God is not protecting America any more. Islam is marching across the world you remember.

Who’s complacent?

If God is not protecting America any more, then it is what it is, but that doesn’t mean those of us who are His are going to just lay down and take it.

The weapons of our warfare are not carnal but spiritual. That’s where the real battle is going on. The physical is just the outworking of the spiritual battle that is happening.

And yes, we will fight. Physically, if necessary, at the voting booth, in our workplaces and our homes where we’ll stand up for what’s right and have integrity in what we do and say.

I encountered this on another thread and liked it.

A LOT!!!!

Don’t ever mistake my silence for ignorance, my calmness for acceptance, or my kindness for weakness.

Buddy you cannot see that you are already taking it (defeat) slowly, at the moment. But that is only temporary. The enemies of America have their weapons at the ready,now.

Do not count on God to defend you if you will not defend yourself.

Absolutely we can count on God to defend us.

What it physical is temporal, what is unseen is eternal.

If you’re thinking this world is the end all and be all of existence, you have a point but if you realize this world and our life in it is a blip in eternity, then even if a battle is lost, the war is already won.

Those who crucified Jesus thought they won. He looked defeated from a worldly perspective.

I would suggest reading (or re-reading) the book of Revelation to see how it ends and find out who really is defeated.

That’s true, and God tells us that it will get a lot worse before it gets better.

That’s the reality of it.

But I read the back of the book and we win.

And obama will have an eternity to contemplate his errors and regret them.

And just what do you propose we do to counter it?

What actions do you think we should take that we are not?

Don’t be just an armchair quarterback.

Most scientists say we have about 3.5 billion years before the sun enters its red giant stage. Funny, most scientists also say the solar system is about 3.5 billion years old.

When you study Bible prophecies, you see patterns over and over. One pattern is this recurring 3 1/2 year/unit thing. You have a 3 1/2 year period, an occurrence or event of some kind, and then another 3 1/2 period before some really climatic event.

The 3 1/2 unit is a division of 7. The number 7 and its multiples or divisions are seen throughout the scriptures. Fascinating!

Think of how fortunate we believers are whatever becomes of this world and time. Those who reject God and His wisdom will be inheriting a rude awakening, They will really, really miss us then but hoping many will see the Light and believe before their demise.

Just like the craps tables in Vegas:

“Seven out - line away!”

In journalism school we were taught to not start your article with a “yes” or “no” question. In this case, those who answer “no” will just skip the article,

Did God punish us with Obama or just let the nation experience its own folly embodied in the charlatan fraud and his adoring morons and hacks? Well the ancient Israelites had their share of wicked kings and rulers too. Its just that we are close to the end of an age before Messiah returns.

MY America?

Is it not yours?

Islam is a threat world wide.

Just what are you doing on a practical level to fight it and change things?

My wife and I are trying to get closer to Him than we’ve ever been. And not care about what is happening in this world. I’m not in charge of that.

Whenever anything happens that doesn’t seem right to us we simply say “It must be His will.”
