I'm not really arguing against this thread... I think all that is being said is sound advice... but in the end (after I've stocked up and ammo'ed up and watered up) I believe that I will rely on the goodness of God to be the controlling thing in my life even when the SHTF.
Feel free to disagree with me. :>)
Its far more than one verse:
The prudent see danger and take refuge,
but the simple keep going and suffer for it.
Proverbs 27:12
Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come,
and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head. He heard the sound of the trumpet, and
took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul.
But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not
warned; if the sword come, and take [any] person from among them, he is taken away in his
iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand. Ezekiel 33:4
In the house of the wise are stores of choice food and oil, but a foolish man devours all he has. Proverbs 21:20
Shall I go on?
