We Don't Know NOTHING ... Because We're Stupid And Lazy

FHII said:

Did you, now? I see you referencing your own understanding and J.R. Black. But I don't recall you saying what the year will be.

I see a few references to scripture that I have already agreed to. But the world didn't end in 1948.

I ask all the others following this thread. Did you see where Bobby Jo said it?

Oh, it's going to get real interesting when I get to my third point!

You mean date setting? Nowhere..

1948 was the start To a Prophetic count down.

Bobby Jo said:

... ( -- I Love the "buts" -- ) ... how many churches allow participation?

Click to expand...

Well, mine for one. But while you say you love the buts, you really don't address the theme, do you? Should things be done decently and in order?

Bobby Jo said:

So is your church structured so that all can participate

Click to expand...

Yep.,. By God's way. Perhaps not by yours. Again, God's way sometimes means shutting up and listening. You didn't seem to have much to say about that.

Bobby Jo said:

But if I'm wrong, the please tell us exactly how the 4th guy in the heirarchy (Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors, Teachers) STAYS in the 4th position (the background) so that the entire congregation can participate. --

Well the congregation isn't even in the heirachy, are they?

I've actually already answered the question. By shutting up and listening.

Yep. That was my point. If I am wrong in believing that, I am not foolish. Again, I am not setting a date other than being ready for it tomorrow. In other words, I am striving to be prepared at all times.

This what I believe the scripture is telling us.

CoreIssue said:

Yes he said beget a lot. But there is silence on a lot of other things.

The silence is why we "give or take a few hundred years" - no reason to doubt the Earth is young.

Oldest living trees? Dated 4,000 to 5,000 years old - based on the rings - making them post-flood first generation growth.
Oldest flowing rivers? Dated 4,000 to 5,000 years old - based on sedimentary deposition - post-flood geological formation.
Older living plants? Dated 4,000 - 5,000 years old.

Carbon dating? Only good up to about 4,000 to 5,000 years ago, according to the RATE team. I recommend you check out the Youtube series "The Genesis Conflict" - really good, you'd enjoy it.

Bobby Jo said:

I think I got into trouble for suggesting that I'm a guy, and not someone who can give you a "drink". Did you want me to give you a "drink"?




REALLY? I thought we weren't HERE anymore!!!
You sure have some whacky ideas about a LOT of subjects, including your ill informed "1948" assertion, but particularly wanting to be under the direction of men, -- kinda like a woman --. Have you considered changing your avatar to something that suits you better?


And before you proceed to your "third point", please allow me to first IGNORE you, because you're wasting my time!

Thanks, Bobby Jo

I'm pretty sure my comment about 6,000 years was directed at someone else, not you.

We are discussing how long earth has been on the earth. Not how old the earth this.

Your 6000 year claim was calculated only for the time humans have been on the earth.

Don't think of off-topic posts as a nuisance. Think of them as "cool spin-offs" - like "Frazier" from "Cheers" or "the Minions" from "Despicable Me"

Huh?

Physically I am here. Spiritually I am not of this world. That's a clear Bible concept. All Children of God can claim it. I am not alone.

Yeah, I know! And we haven't even stratched the surface!

Well darn! I thought you would like that one! Seems to me that Israel regaining it's status as a country is pretty important. It's not like I am the only one, either. You can rest assured that there are plenty of other wacky people out there like me!

But if I am wrong, my world isn't destroyed. I can live with being wrong.

Bobby Jo said:

Click to expand...

Actually I have. This one I have now has special meaning between myself and another person. We share it. So it's not only mine. Thus, its not my sole decision to change it.

But if I did change it, it would be an avatar that depicts the Church. Which in the Bible is depicted as a woman. Or have you not read Eph 5.

Praise God! Thanks! I consider it an honor!

But I am going to still give my third point, and it is going to be a lot of fun!

I would say I am going to miss you. But frankly... I don't believe you won't be reading.

I am tempted to ask if you feel you have proven any point you intended to make. But that would assume you are reading what I wrote. I take it to heart that as a man (or woman) of your word, you aren't. You are ignoring me.

Now how will you scratch that itch in you mind?

I haven’t learned anything new. All he’s stated so far is everyone other than himself are idiots lasy etc,,,hasn’t even stated the century.

I believe she’s frustrated. Maybe her husband won’t let her have her rightful say in matters.

Learning comes in many ways, my friend. He may have not given you any new information. He may have not been a new battle. But that doesn't mean you didn't learn something.

A wrestler, boxer and martial artist will learn something every time he faces a new opponent. Maybe not a great lesson, but just a new skill set to engage.

Furthermore, inroads are built with repetition.

It appears that Bobby Jo is frustrated. Whether that person is a guy or girl makes no difference to me.

Amen! And I am quite confident that God will reward you appropriately as well.

Guessing maybe I haven’t learned to suffer people as well as I should. He resists the proud.
