Sure enough. Never any edification or encouragement, just him showing off his...intelect.

What edification is there to be gained from this futurist nonsense? It's all fabrication, fraud.

In case you think there will NOT come a day of judgement, (i.e. there WILL be an end), please comment on the following (2 Peter 3:3-19)

It seems those that scoffers will *eventually* be proven wrong.

I look at it like this — if I believe the end is near, then I will live my life under a sober influence. If I think the end is not in our lifetime, I may stay at the fair too long, and the result would not be good. I like bets I “win” regardless of the outcome.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, 4And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. 5For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: 6Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: 7But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

8But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

10But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

11Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, 12Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? 13Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

14Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless. 15And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; 16As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction. 17Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness. 18But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.

So here's to you, Mr. Robertson,
Jesus loves your cash more than we know (wo wo wo).
God bless your bank, Mr. Robertson,
Swiss accounts offer security (hee hee hee).

He wants to know a little bit about you for your cash.
He wants to know how he can help himself...
Just a hundred or a thousand, don't do anything rash.
Till the monthly donation is required from everyone...

Where have you gone, Christianity?
Charlatans have taken center stage.
Turn off these dispy clowns,
Turn to Jesus, make Him all the rage...

I’m 47 years old and only within the last few years have I had the honor of getting to know a family of true Christians. Probably people similar to the poster of this article. They have lifted me up like no one else I’ve previously met. I certainly know many other good non-Christians, but no one that rises to their level of character. Probably like you.

I've never seen you post anything positive. What I have seen is EVERY TIME someone posts an endtimes posting, YOU chime in with something snide and deriding. I have no problem with people having differing opinions, but there is common courtesy, where at some point people see a thread that espouses a differing view and avoid it. But my opinion of you is, that you specifically look for these posts simply to cause derision. You mock and antagonize, and when you find a thread like this, you post to others like yourself, for them to join you in your mocking and derision.

I find it interesting that I came to this thread to see if you'd spew, and sure enough you did. You have have modus. Its to cause trouble with anyone who has a dispensational view. Granted, this isn't a caucus, so you are free to join in. But I find it telling of ones character, when every time there is a thread like this you come to cause trouble.

This wasn't a thread attacking your view. This was a thread espousing a different view from yours. And yet you felt compelled come here to mock others.

You offer no biblical references, just sarcasm.
