   He's correct..be alert and aware, but don't obsess over the issue. OK to discuss and compare, but don't let it ruin your day..

   I am surprised that you quote from a Methodist Church, especially one so recently split from the United Methodists..

    ..And that when I recall,your recently casting aspersions upon a post of mine which quoted q pastor in just such a situation..

But they did split, while u and your church invite the United Methodist in to educate your congregation. Your alarmist fervor is constantly posting apocalyptic end times predicting. Just like this thread.

Instead of looking for the end, you should enjoy the wonders that God gaveus to enjoy. He'll get here when He's ready.

What difference does it make when HE returns? Who cares? If you are ready, you are ready and if you are not stop wasting time and get ready. So long as you are ready and stay ready  how can it matter the when?

Adzackly! These apocalyptic,  dooms day, End Times, Alarmists feast on this "End Times rhetoric" like maggots on a road kill.

They obviously like the manufactured drama it causes.

  Different people have different intellectual interests and pursuits.

  One man says his revolver works fine..it goes bang..every time he pulls the trigger.  If it doesn't he can take it to a gunsmith for repair.

  So, why dig into it , to fiund out why and how?  Others want to learn all about their guns.

   Politics are going to go on, with or without any one of us.  Too many don't delve into the issues or actions of politicians...still others read, research and discuss politics, such as right here on GBO.

  Millions of people avidly  follow some sport, whether football, baseball, hockey or basketball.  Others such as myself, could not care less about those games.

  Same with spiritual issues..  If we are Christians for instance..some of us are very interested in that subject.  When I post in the religion heading,
  I am looking for an enlightened discussion, with people of the same interest.

  Just as many here like to discuss hunting, trapping, vehicles, guns or cooking..  I like and discuss guns, hunting etc and join in those discussions.
 ...Surely I would not try to belittle another simply because he likes Henry and I like Savage..or he likes Ford while I like Jeep..

  The thing which sets me back, is when another has an expertise which I do not possess, I am not afraid to ask.  Dee has law enforcement experience, I don't mind deferring to him concerning LE techniques and practices..same with cattle herding questions..and I have asked related questions.

  Lloyd has experience with hot rodding engines..If I had any questions about linkage to hook up 3 two-barrel carbs, I wouild ask him.

   So, when I post something concerning  Christianity....I don't mind anyone questioning me about how I arrive at my conclusions..or offering
   plausible counter information....and moving to discuss it.

  ..But instead, all I get is baseless argument...giving me much heat, but virtually no light !

  If I either have no interest in a subject, I normally won't participate.  If I have little knowledge on a subject, and want to learn, I usually will either l
   listen silently or  perhaps ask questions, which seems the natural thing to do.

   Rudeness and abuse should not be a part of such discussions....at least that is the way I see it..

Yes
I made a similar topic back a couple
of months ago, but the train had a hard
time staying on the track.
Most of the stuff is sort of amusing
at first until I see all the gullible people
that embrace all of the manure that gets
spread around. Anointing oil to put on
yourself while watching the program.
Jordan river water for the same purpose.
Strips of purple fabric ( prayer cloths)
Salvation kits. Crucifixes made from
wood from the "holy land ". I've seen
lots of trinkets that they send you for
your "love gift"/ "seed money "
Lots and lots that declare "come soon
Jesus " and those that believe in hidden
secrets in the Bible, or secret Bible codes.
Many different interpretations of scripture
trying to equate current events with verses
and say that this is that, and that is this.
And that demons are really evil men and
and not demons because there's no such
things as supernatural beings or demons
or evil spirits.
Babylon is America and Babylon is England
and Babylon is Las Vegas and Babylon is
Russia and blah blah blah blah blah blah.
If people believe that the world is about
to end, why do they think that they can
hide and escape the  end?
I've heard people say that they would be
aloft in a plane with their survival gear
during the end,  but where can you land?  ;)

People have no real faith in the Bible or God.
I can only guess that the thought of an eternity
of satan and hell is too much to digest and
being subservient to God is as scary to them

Some folks just like to second guess God. He told everyone that they don't know, but they like to scare each other and pretend they see it all.

I posted a website, that was all. And then you challenged my post with this, and lied about your United Methodist minister being separated from the United Methodist Church like the one  I used was, when yours most certainly was not.
You can twist anything out of shape here you want, but not very many here buy it anymore. You've been found many times here improving the truth

You're always saying your looking for discussion, but your version of discussion is: You're right and everyone else is wrong.
Your whinning about rudeness falls on deaf ears, as your accusations and rudness toward locust never cease, and you never pass on an opportunity to be both towards him. You tell myself,  and others that if we don't agree to not respond, or be civil. Where is your civility towards locust? ???.

  Guess I missed those posts.  I've heard that some folks dabble in those practices, but haven't seen them mentioned here.  Could be though
  I suppose, since I don't see all the posts.

  In any case, most all of them you listed, sound quite amusing, to say the least !
