lol, or ho ho ho is getting timely.

See if you ever read the bible, (which I really am convinced you don't)you would know the role of the prophets, and that they can predict either doom and gloom or hope for Israel- both national Israel and spiritual Israel. Scripture always has every answer that you are looking for, the answers to the questions are contained in the text.

I would tell you but you scoff way too much, will probably deny the scripture says what it does, although it says the same thing dozens of times, and then argue over the word "and" in the conjunctive or indicative state.

Oh come on — cite something from prophet Webster or prophet Oxford for me. I promise I won’t take off for any misspellings or mispronunciations.

You mean like the prophecy that Christ predicted regarding the fall of Jerusalem in Matthew?

21For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. (Matthew 24:21)

Now, where else in scripture does Christ ever use 'hyperbolic' language as you claim this to be?
