Psalm 83? In light of what is going on in the world that is amazing. God certainly has a sense of humor/timing... even the rocks cry out.
"Hundreds of millions of us"
"Hundreds" would be more accurate than "hundreds of millions."
As the rain and the snow
come down from heaven,
and do not return to it
without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,
so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,
so is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
Isaiah 55:10-11
Your word, O LORD, is eternal;
it stands firm in the heavens.
Psalm 119:89
" Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away."
Thanks, Thinkin' Gal, for the link on the original thread!

It is interesting that ANYTHING is legible after being in a bog for 1400 years. I've seen some of the artifacts (including people) retrieved from the bogs in the Irish Museum in Dublin. Everything takes on a dark brown color, like it had been soaked in tobacco juice for 1000 years. I'm surprised that they can make out any words at all.
This is a truly wonderful discovery, and the timing is not lost on me. Divine intervention?
You really should stop smoking crack.
It's just not good for you.
Amen.
"Verse 6 reads they will be from tents. What is your interpretation on that. I've been doing some thinking on this and would like your take on it. Thanks.."
Haven't really given that much thought...what did you come up with?

No. Hundreds of millions in China, Brazil, Korea, across many Western countries . . . Africa . . . and surprising numbers even in Islamic countries through vivid dreams, visions, visitations of Jesus The Christ to individuals, families, tribes.
The Pentecostal/Charismatic flavor & perspective of Christianity is massively sweeping across the globe. People are finding God IS REAL; DOES CARE; and DOES BACK UP HIS WORD WITH SIGNS FOLLOWING THOSE WHO BELIEVE as Scripture says.
I don't know that it's greatly more than 200,000,000 but I'm rather confident the numbers are that high. China may well be in significant excess of 100,000,000 alone.
ROFL! Right next to the picnic basket with the lutefisk and green jello!
"God IS REAL; DOES CARE;"
That is true, but it has nothing to do with your misconceptions regarding history and the Church.
If they were misconceptions, I wouldn't have them! LOL.
Psalm 83
Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God. For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head. They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones. They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee.my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind... My God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind. As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire; So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm. Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
I guess that's supposed to be some sort of joke, but I don't get it.
The fact is thatsomebody, or sombodies, have told you a lot of things that simply are not true, and you believed them. You harbor many misconceptions.
Just wow.
