The world comes to an end for someone every minute
of the day. The Universe too for that matter.
Wife just said that it looks like a black hole, I agree, although I must admit I have never seen a black hole.
I looked just west of Pegasus last Saturday night and took this picture of Planetary Nebula M-27.
9/4/10 - 2230hrs, 19x135s ISO800 w/6.3 focal reducer using CLS LP filters, mounted to a SCT.
This thing is approximately 1100 light years away...It's basically a star that blew it's outer shell away about 3500 years ago. The small star which can be seen in the very center of the nebula, is cause of this.
It is estimated the ejected gas from this dying star is expanding at a rate of about 17 miles per second.
Many astronomers believe the same thing will eventually happen to our own star.
Sometimes a perfect geometrical spiral is just a perfect geometrical spiral.
Really fascinating photo of a beautiful object, astrobiblical silliness aside.
Never have so many so dilegintly sought out, and asked questions with “spiritual eyes” and all got diffrent answers.
In general, I have to agree with you. Puh-leez.
Matthew 24:26 pretty much covers all the "false" prophets running around "knowing" this or that about what this sign is and what country is what animal...etc.
He specifically states that we are to do what you suggest. Live as if he comes at this very moment.
I am the worst Christian imaginable. I have pride, anger issues, am not charitable to people that I view as parasites, and on and on. But I do know that I believe that Jesus died for my sins and that I hope and pray nightly for help in getting back up and trying again.
I think a lot of the folks talking about the signs of the end times are too busy looking at signs for the coming apocalypse and not looking at themselves in order to avoid making the painful choice of giving God everything and trusting in him or just going part of the way and "bargaining" with the big guy that you will do this good deed and that good deed but still harbor hate, lust, pride or any of the normal sins that man has.
anyway I think you hit the ball out of the park with your post.
The big difference between the last 2,000 years and the last 60 years is the rebirth of Israel.
That’s amazing!
It’s interesting, Tara.
Thanks!
After processing the raw data, I was pretty happy with the shot.
Ok that’s fine. Lots of people who are dead now were looking for a 1988 roshashana thing to keep from having to experiance a dirt nap. But we shall see. When the good Lord comes a calling he won’t have to shout for me. But whether I’m alive on earth or elswhere doesn’t make a hill of beans to me.
Thank you. I agree with you as well. Focus on yourself, and your relationship to God and the Trinity, not the beast or the rockefellers or whatever gets cooked up.
Pam’s purple spyrograph is turning and turning
these visions in his mind are burning and burning
tracing tiny circles on his brain
longing for the day when he can finally kill the pain kill the pain kill the pain
INTERESTING.
THX.
ANOTHER SIGN IN THE HEAVENS.
John 1:51 is a prophesy of the transfiguration, not a reference to DNA. You really need to take into account context when you are trying to interpret Scripture.
