I have been telling the wife this for awhile, but she has not been taking me seriously, sort of a rolling of the eyes response. She bought some extra dried potato, cereal, some dried milk powder and some canned food. But I know it is not enough. I may have to go and buy a bunch of extra food myself. It is just the 2 of us, but my Daughter's family is 6 people live a few minutes away. I have been warning them for a while too. It just is not sinking in much though.
NOW HOW ABOUT YOU?
I have one of then new age so called Christian mates and he refuses to work his whole life 59yo he is now and, he claims no one has to work if they don't want to. but then again he is going to be raptured up as well, before the hell fire comes.Why do people do anything like go to school, go to university, get trained for a job...it is for their future benefit.
We are told not to worry about the future and that is correct.
BUT your a hypocrite if you go to schools and train for a job to prepare for your future to get the money to buy the things you need, if you then say what some poster here is saying that they refuse to do anything to work for their future because that is what Christ taught. And then say, I am not going to prepare for a potential issue with not being able to buy the things I will be needing in the future.
Ok, so if they refuse to work for it, then neither let them eat of it.
I mean why bother doing anything at all, just do nothing, live on the kindness of the government welfare, bread and circuses like the poor of Rome did thousands of years ago.
Government welfare go ahead, when you could have worked and prepared for your future, be an extreme burden to the others who do contribute. Then they have denied the faith of Christ and are worse than an unbeliever.
1 Timothy 5:8
But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
Tomarrrto juice. Yes indeed dear brother. Praise the Lord.I buy as much fresh produce as i can . I do buy low sodium tomato vegetable juice .
I also hate their teaching of Christ being tortured in Hell.
He was not tortured in hell.
He said it was finished on the cross.
He did go and preach Himself to some of those in Hades-Hell.
There is never any scripture teaching of Christ tormented in hell.
in truth Christ tells one of the thieves on the cross, that day he would be with Christ in Paradise.
Not torture, but Paradise, where all the OT righteous saints when they died would go to be, in Paradise.
Granted that paradise was a compartment of Hades or Hell, Hades being the place of the dead, those who died before the Resurrection, but not in a place of torment.. which was its own separate compartment, refer to the parable of Lazarus and the rich man.
Acts 2:23-32
New King James Version
23 Him, being delivered by the determined purpose and foreknowledge of God, you have taken by lawless hands, have crucified, and put to death; 24 whom God raised up, having loosed the pains of death, because it was not possible that He should be held by it. 25 For David says concerning Him:
‘I foresaw the Lord always before my face,
For He is at my right hand, that I may not be shaken.
26 Therefore my heart rejoiced, and my tongue was glad;
Moreover my flesh also will rest in hope.
27 For You will not leave my soul in Hades,
27 KJV uses HELL here
"27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell"
Nor will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption.
28 You have made known to me the ways of life;
You will make me full of joy in Your presence.’
29 “Men and brethren, let me speak freely to you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his tomb is with us to this day. 30 Therefore, being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him that of the fruit of his body, according to the flesh, He would raise up the Christ to sit on his throne, 31 he, foreseeing this, spoke concerning the resurrection of the Christ, that His soul was not left in Hades, KJV uses hell here, "his soul was not left in hell", nor did His flesh see corruption. 32 This Jesus God has raised up, of which we are all witnesses.
However the part of hell-hades for them was Paradise, as Hell-Hades is compartmented, including Tartarus for the fallen angels, they are bound right now in Tartarus
2 Peter 3
18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit, 19 by whom also He went and preached to the spirits in prison, 20 who formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.
Mens hearts failing them from fear of things coming upon this world . Go to and behold this world .Tomarrrto juice. Yes indeed dear brother. Praise the Lord.
That is right my dear brother. We are now at the end of the end of this current world. Oh the joy of knowing that the LORD’s return is very close.JUDGMENT . The global beast system cannot be stopped . It was all foretold How things
would look near the end .
And now a word from paul many , many years ago .Eze 3:16 And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Eze 3:17 Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me.
Eze 3:18 When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
Eze 3:19 Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.
Eze 3:20 Again, When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
Eze 3:21 Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul.
The principle taught by Jesus about not all men receiving his saying can be applied to everything he said.
Remember this:
“I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.” (John 17:14)
Many so called Christians are worldly and concern them selves too much with its affairs. Paul said:
“No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.” (2 Timothy 2:4)
