hi JIA. long time no see.
anyway, about that prophecy in the first post, i've read that.... yes.. i just dunno when, but came across it.
i'm not sure it is true though.. i mean, many people had tried to predict the day or year or whatever of the rapture... and they've been wrong, so i'm not exactly sure if it's true.

Hi, how are you doing JaehSkywalker?
I know but it is something to consider.
i'm great... still in the faith... though, haven't been going to church as frequently as i want to.
yeah.. i was actually surpried when i read it.. and i was a bit creeped out for a sec there.. it is a possibility, i don't leave that out, but still.. with all those predictions...
but still too, christians and people should always be ready anyway coz we dunno when it's gonna happen...

That is good that you are still serving Jesus. He is truly our Life and reason for being. Just stay close to Jesus through prayer and the Word of God and be holy in all you do. Remember: without holiness no one will see the Lord.
I know those prophecies are kind of alarming. But hey, Jesus just may come this year so let's be ready just in case.

Fragments are still significant. It's sad that you try to scientifically explain things while ignoring other observations that conflict with your beliefs.
But what is more sad is that you emphasize trivial occurrences and use them to support things that require significantly more evidence for belief and to establish your position.

yep.. 😊
well.. laterz.
Do you not think that the idea of heaven is elitist? One could have a life devoted to doing good and still be destined for hell. If I were to be a definite believer in God, I would choose to distance myself from religion for this very reason. It deems rewards as exclusive to those who agree with its ideas. Which to me seems to go against everything righteous.

God so loved the world chillmeistergen, not the elite, that He gave His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

lol you're asking for evidence when your only evidence is scripture? I highly suggest a reboot in your logic system. You might do better to stick to one plane of arguement instead of flip-flopping between faith and scientific(?) explanation (of which it is apparent that you have no background in the scientific topics that you argue), because it makes you out to be quite hypocritical.

You just missed the entire point. The whole world does not believe in Jesus, this makes the grounds for entry to heaven elitist. Those that do good but do not believe in Jesus are tormented for eternity in hell, those that do evil, but believe in him are rewarded with eternity in heaven.

Contrary to what you believe AngryManatee, the Bible and science complement one another. I have already provided references for this in previous posts.
