When do you think the end of the world will come?

Anything opposing Christ is anti-Christ.

The anti-Christ is a form. Example :Islam denies Christ is the son of God. Thus, anti. Anti-Christ is not what you have seen at the movies/TV. Thats entertainment.

You think God's way is controlling? Let me ask you, what do you live for and what do you do in order to attain it? How would you view yourself if you don't attain it?

Ultimately, we all serve something we hold it high esteem. Whats at the top of your list? Your answer = what controls you.

By the way, we do have free will.

Re: Re: Re: Short answers....

Baby Gorilla rather effectivly summarized the New Testament chapter of "Revelations of St. John".
It's all there.

Yea, and did a very good job. The only part that I was no aware of was that a "mark" means to be a cut or a slice in the skin. Man, that chip is it(the mark). I mean the projections for the company that makes the digital angel are astronomical and the reason why is because the antichristi is going to force everyone to take one.

ou know another that is scary. Take a look the around the next grocery store you go into. I mean there are hundreds of cameras everywhere. I mean why would a grocery store go to that expense to catch a few shop lifters? I don't think that is the reason. I think it is too catch people who have not taken the mark that are stealing food to survive.

Really? Can you list em and when these were fullfilled? I really would like to here this. No kidding.

I found the info I wanted. However it's written down and not in text format (it's not stuff pulled from the internet).

This is very good stuff & I will post this at the first of the week (when I return to work and actually have time to type it).

It identifies ALL prophecies in the past that have been fulfilled and those yet to come. Also states where we currently are in relation to prophecy & explains how we are very near to the last days before the Rapture & uses scripture & current events to back it all up.

so stay tuned..........

How do you know it is God's way? Because the bible says so? If this is the case then you have surrendered your free will to the authors of that book.

Have you ever met a member of a cult who believes (s)he is being controlled? I rest my case.

Accepting something does not constitute surrender of free will.

Christ died for all that we may be saved by grace. We can't add to the ultimate sacrifice because it is all sufficient.

We CHOOSE to live for Him or not live for Him. This choice is perpetual until He comes again or we die which ever comes first.

We do not turn into robots when we convert to Christ. In fact, the apostles warn many deciples from "falling away" from the teachings of Christ. If it could not happen, they would not need to warn them.

The arthor of the book was God. He just used men as secretaries to write it. And you are not surrending your free will you still have a choice to commit sins or not. People always look at God as just a mean rule maker. That is not what God is at all. God is simply the most loving intelligent father a kid could have. Did you think your dad was mean when he told you not to touch the stove yea probably at the time but later you found out that he was right it would hurt if you did it.

Same thing as God since He is an all knowing smart God. He knows what things are good for you and what are bad. Look at just a couple of the rules. Don't commit adultry. If you do, you could possibly lose your wife, kids and half of your possession not to mention hurting terribly the person you commited your faithfulness to when you got married.

Seems like a good rule to me. What about you?

Another one do not be drunken with wine. And what happens when you get drunk you act like a fool and do and say some things you regret later. And you get this nasty little thing they call a hangover the next day . Again, it seems like a very wise rule to me. What about you?

Tell me any rule in the Bible that you do not agree with and I'll show you the cosequences of not following that rule.

Like I said, try looking at God as the perfect Father instead of some pie in the sky dictator and He will make more sense to you.

If you have accepted someone's notion that you must behave or believe certain things otherwise you are a sinner then you have lost your free will.

So far the most accurate and intellegent answer awards go to; the logic king - ie .. my main man Warik, the nordstromator - busting out the cold hard truth, and lets not forget about the Hansmeister who's definitely holding his own, with style. To the other less than knowledables thumping on the holy book of placebos, fiction is fun but at the end of the day reality unfortunately always seems to prevail.

I'm not sure if the original inquiry was relating to the destruction of humans or the earth, but earth will have run its coarse after all of the sol's H fuel get fused into He and swells into a red giant to consume the near by terrestrial planets, but we really wont be around for that light show, and will have died regardless close to 8 minutes post-burnout as no sun, no electromagnetic radiation, no heat, no plants, no oxygen, destroyed ozone = no life.

Humans biggest threat, aside from our own retarded selves, would be the eventual ELE asteroid impact. Its happened 6-7 times before, and will again, variable populations get vamped and restructured. Homo sapiens are so far the farthest any animal on this planet has evolved on earth’s watch, and could be the last depending on what numbers our shooting gallery of a universe has planned. Permian was @ 96%. To get a very rough frequency estimate [*] , you could take all the previous extinction dates to get the mean average and compare the last event to our present date. Because just like our old dino brolys knew all too well, when that shit happens - its game over.

Actually curling, those cameras you see at the grocery store.....theyre there for a good reason. People steal from a grocery store probably about 5 times more than any department store, etc.... I used to work LP for dominicks, in Hanover Park, IL no less, and it was a nightmare. People used to just load up carts and baskets FULL of fresh meats and sea foods, not to mention liquor(not to be racist, but hennesy, cognac...never saw a white person even touch the bottles on the shelf, and rarely ever saw a back person try to pay for it), baby formula(stolen to sell cheap in ghettos, plus it is mixed in with cocaine and heroin to make the drug less pure, and to sell more), film, the expensive razor blade cartriges...and so on. im talking in the 7 months i was at that one store, 50 hours a week in a 24 hour store, I prevented close to 75,000 dollars worth of theft. now imagine what i missed, wasnt there for, who slipped by me. Sensormatics securrity system i think is close to 100,000 plus labor to set up for dominicks, i was making 10 an hour.....I think the cost is worth it at that rate, dont you think?

Back to the subject at hand, reading a little bit of Nostradamus, I read about this final pope, the false prophet. According to the man himself, this pope would be none other than...french. That seems to fit huh? LOL

I look at the bible as the worlds oldest game of telephone. Gods word is pure, true, perfect. But the bible isnt written by God, its written by man, who is imperfect, and has been known to use anything he can go put himself in a position of power...just some food for thought.

How exactly is the United States refered to in the book of revelations?
