Fine. Use nukes then.
I’m sure God has the means all prepared whether by human agency or otherwise.
Wouldn't that tick off the Jews, who don't accept Jesus?
God helps those who help themselves.
You're not under the impression that phrase is scriptural are you?
I'm under the impression that it's true.
Scripture declares that they will look on Him whom they have pierced . . .
They will accept Him when they realize they blew it in accepting the Anti-Christ.
Then there’s the 144,000—12 thousand from every tribe who will evidently earlier.
Thanks for the ping!
God has had an intense focus on the children of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob for thousands of years.
His focus in this era is evidently more intense than ever.
imho,
He’s not going to allow anyone or anything to get ahead or behind HIS plans regarding them.
So pali savages blowing up 12 year olds in pizza parlors is part of God's plan. And He lets it go on because Jews are his Chosen People.
Got it.
As long as you're aware a man said that and not God.
There’s a lot about God and His ways that I don’t wrap my mind well around.
However, I do undersand and KNOW ENOUGH to KNOW
that
HE IS GOD
and I’m not.
They will - thats part of the plan... and so shall all Israel be saved.
Me either. Like that part about letting millions of his Chosen people including women and children be slaughtered by genocidal maniacs during that little dust-up in Europe back in the 1940's.
Or the example I just gave you.
If that's how God loves and protects his Chosen ones....
So.. if that's the plan, why are they still Jewish?
Why not give it up and become Christians?
They will. You have to read ahead in the Book just a little bit...
They aren't. Christians are.
John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
IIRC the Nazis murdered a rather sizeable number of Christians, too.
I have no trouble at all believing that
Scripture is absolutely correct that
the GLORIES OF HEAVEN are so infinite that the sufferings of this life are not WORTHY to be even compared with them.
And,
I have no trouble believing that children under the age of accountability make Heaven whenever and however they are killed even by infanticide.
And,
Sometimes it SEEMS LIKE, God spends people like water or Monopoly money.
HOWEVER, THE OVERRIDING ISSUE STILL IS . . .
HIS WAYS ARE BEYOND OUR FINDING OUT
HIS PERSPECTIVE IS BEYOND OUR FULLY UNDERSTANDING IN OUR FINITENESS IN THIS TIME/SPACE DIMENSION
AND
SUPREMELY:
HE IS GOD
we are NOT.
Thankfully.
It is arrogance to PRESUME that we KNOW BETTER HOW HE SHOULD PLAY GOD than HE DOES.
We can’t begin to factor in all the factors.
I will also note . . . a
LOT of LIFE AFTER DEATH experiencers
have noted that even immeidately after the most horrendously awful and momentarily painful death . . . looking back on their mangled bodies etc.
there was extreme peace, serenity, joy in Christ’s presence. There were no feelings of anger, hurt, resentment, challenging questions etc.
