Yes, it’s all relative to the measure of faith each of us has as well as what the Lord has laid on each of our hearts.
“Yes, it’s all relative to the measure of faith each of us has as well as what the Lord has laid on each of our hearts.”
So you’re saying pretty much all Christian women before the age of supermarket and JIT food delivery had no faith in the Lord?
Is our faith in JIT delivery systems supposed to supercede having read history books?
There have been literally millions of Christians who have starved during times of famine. Maybe they just didn’t have enough faith...
I have kin who refuse to even have gardens or fruit and berry bushes in their yards. When I point out that if things got hard (because I took history in college and actually read those books) they could at least eat berries I’m quickly chastised with ‘I won’t have to worry about that!, I’ll be raptured!. Too bad you don’t have the faith that you’ll be raptured too, maybe you should pray on that!’. As a retort.
I don’t have whole storage closets full of food. But I DO grow an extensive garden enough to feed my family and several neighbors. I also save seed to share if things got bad. Venezuela, Crimea, Argentina, West Africa and any other hotspot you care to think of is currently experiencing food insufficiency. To think ‘it can’t happen here’ is to stick one’s head in the sand. None of those countries have been raptured as far as I can tell, but there are plenty of hungry and starving Christians there.
