That's why I pinged you; CondoleezzaProtege's piece tied in with things you recently posted on another thread.
I don't *know* that we're in the last days; some of the signs are intriguing; but I fear a repeat of the "Hal Lindsey" syndrome in which Christians check out and allow the culture to go to Hell because "Oh, Boy, JESUS IS COMING SOON"TM.
We are called to be Salt and Light; We are called to overcome evil with Good.
It is for that reason that I think our motto ought to be (see my vanity Sarah Ringbearer, or, A Gift From Frodo) --
"LET'S GET THE BASTARDS -- FOR SARAH!"
Cheers!
Thats exactly why I believe the attitude of some with the Hal Lindsey deal and just this year with the Camping deal is totally unbiblical. Even if we are convinced that we are in the last days we are still to keep doing what the Lord has called us to do. The only thing I think its important for people to understand prophecy is to not fear the things that are happening. Knowing we can rest assured that God is indeed in control and we are in His plan if we rely on only Him for our salvation. I can truly say with excitement come quikly Lord Jesus! Although I have to admit that I hope Im around to see some of them get theirs.
>> "LET'S GET THE BASTARDS -- FOR SARAH!"<<
Im with you on that one but I would change it to WITH SARAH because I believe she is still and will always be one of us.
