And if he has allowed objects in space to be on a collision course with earth, then he can in an instant cause them to veer off on another course.
Or, he can reduce the impact as he has done more than once to reveal his power to a sinful world.
Luke 17:26 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
Luke 17:28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
Luke 17:29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed [them] all.
Luke 17:30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.
Luke 17:37 And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body [is], thither will the eagles be gathered together.
Those are awesome! That's what I'm talking about!
BEFORE the flood, he TOOK NOAH out in the ark.
BEFORE Sodom & Gomorrah, he TOOK LOT out.
I can only deduce that before the great calamities come,
God's mode of operation is to take His own Out!
I still maintain that certain other events must happen first. We all know about the 'mark of the beast'. Who'll be left to take it (or give it?) if we're destroyed THIS summer?
