I agree with you ST...
However: With so many other global events happening Simultaneously, with strange but maybe normal past weather phoenomenom, IMO it is prophetic in nature to the *Last Days*
Which I think our generation definetly is....
Pal ...
Are you OK? Have "they" gotten to you?
Well they sure are beautiful -however if I saw clouds like that i might be running for my basement!

Not when you look at it sideways.
Well, as I’ve said before, and to help clarify this with others here — the term “Last Days” actually began at the time just after Christ left this earth. Peter defined it as the “Last Days” from what we can see in Acts.
Now, we are in (more technically speaking) the “End of the Last Days” (LOL...).
In other words, we are coming up to that period of time which Daniel the prophet talked about. We are coming up on those last 7 years that was allocated to the nation of Israel (as God told Daniel back then). That’s the Tribulation Period.
Now..., when you go into those “signs” that are talked about — those are the “signs” and things in the sky that are talked about in the Bible which happen during that last 7 years, in other words, they happen during the Tribulation. It’s those people who will see it.
And what they’ll be seeing is about 100 times more severe and more dramatic than anything that one brings up right now, on these threads. There’s “no comparison” of this stuff here (and on other threads) to what will happen during that Tribulation time. That’s when it will be so dramatic that what we see now is merely *ordinary* and *dull*...
That’s how much different it will be then.
Right now, what we’re seeing are certain things that cycle through and happen over a longer period of time. Like when was the last time a big neteor struck the earth in your lifetime? I can’t remember one...
But, *outside* of our lifetimes, it has happened and will happen again. So, the “length of the cycle” for big meteors hitting the earth is way beyond our own limited lifetimes, so it simply seems “catastrophic” (which it is, I suppose) but it has happened *repeatedly* over our earth’s history — so it’s *nothing new*...
And we talk about big volcanoes, but we’ve got the proof of a big eruption out of Yellowstone, many years in the past, bigger than we’ve seen in our lifetimes and indeed, in the history of this country.
And how about big earthquakes? Well, the biggest one in the history of this country (in the lower 48) never happened in California. It happened in New Madrid, Missouri. Actually the two biggest ones ever (#1 and #2) in 1811 and 1812, with the 6th biggest one in 1812. The two biggest were over 8.0 and the third one was 7.8 magnitude.
So, when was the last time you’ve seen an 8.0 earthquake in the lower 48 of the United States?
You see..., many of these things are outside of our lifespans and they “cycle” and come around again and again, all through history.
BUT, those things of the Tribulation Period won’t be *recycled stuff* — but totally unique and having never happened in history before. Thus, we haven’t seen anything like that, yet...

Just funning.
Me too. I was in 2nd grade, living in Oak Cliff. One afternoon the clouds gathered and the sky took on a strange greenish-blue color. Everything seemed to get really still...
Yes and that will be at the tail end of this final generation..
Matthew 24:22
Unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved. But for the sake of the chosen ones, those days will be shortened....
I believe it is the JEWS who Jesus is speaking about, who are left on the earth during the rapture....

Oh man! That was it... :-)
That was exactly it... It was scary-looking for sure...
Head for the hills, Ma, we got crop circles in the sky!
OK. If you see one of these and lightening starts striking the same spot over and over again, get out of town... FAST!
BTTT

Yep, that’s a good clue that a “wormhole” is opening up.... [and usually the Klingons are not far behind...]

Wow, could be signs in the heavens for these days? Beautiful, all of them.
