Spin it however you like. I still say it's a false prophesy by the Deuteronomy 18:21-22 standard.

Revelation is like the Kennedy Assassination. You can always dig deeper, find new clues. It's a never-ending rathole. But eventually, if you sit back and just contemplate things rationally -shave a little with Occam's razor - it just leads back to the most simplistic answer.

it ends my friend..........when you find The Truth.

yes, you can find the 'most simplistic answer' if that suits you.

then you see things that don't fit or contradict and down you go.....


Proverbs 1:22 asks, "How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity?"


for some, simplicity never ends. others work harder and smarter.

yur choice. choose wisely.


.
 

oh, and one more thing.....

how many here discuss the Ezekiel 38 war? it is 'one simple chapter' long ?


hmmm.


.
 

And what if I choose poorly where it comes to Revelation? If it's all going to end, then it's all going to end, is it not? It's not like it's going to matter or change anything if I choose to ignore Revelation, is it?

That's just it... I don't see the point.

you wont change Revelation my friend.

Revelation changes you.


That's just it... I don't see the point.

you will.

"But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise..." 1 Corinthians 1:27

that's for sure.

be blessed my friend, and stop copping out with the Easy Answers. we need to win the World to Jesus, well at least a few of them like @Gordy and @watsup

so get on yur A game friend, cause they have a Play book developed for years of dealing with second rate answers.


.
 

I don't know if this is a Catholic thing or not, but the God I worship is pretty plain-spoken - He doesn't seek to confound people with cryptical horror stories. Why would He need to?

I'm not worried much about what anyone else chooses to believe or not believe. Each to his own. It's hard enough for me to find my own way on my spiritual journey, let alone worry about what everyone else chooses to do.

um Sheep, i am totally Revelation based End Times Prophecy........all the time.

now you can see how Gooood the world is getting, go on and tell me.

even YouTube suggests crime is getting worse and End Times.....




maybe guys like @Logician Man will see the Light and cry out for help from above.

maybe.


and get Desperate too my friends.

.
 

Ooooohhh... Crime.... What can I say? Jerusalem to Jericho is a rough hood.
 
Ooooohhh... Crime.... What can I say? Jerusalem to Jericho is a rough hood.

true.

but get realistic, the whole Modern world going this way my friend.

Desperate?


maybe, you are. Jamie keeps coming out with these Shorts, see if this fits....




in the end, it fits if you think about it enuf. and Revelation going to get more Intense as we get into 2025....


are you ready friends, or still on the fence. God is waiting, what are you waiting for?


Desperate.

There's always been crime, Revelation... that's why I brought up the Good Samaritan. Nothing new under the Sun.

i know that Cord. used to work in the inner city where people would get killed over a Hamburger. very painful me thinks, how dumb can they get; (don't ask)


but i push Revelation here: all. the. time.

and they still don't get it. for instance, this guy means well but has no clue of Prophecy, and i mean Zero.....


Never!

The Israeli's will never let it happen. They know what is going on in Iran.

We should have solved this problem when Bush had troops in Iraq.

Prophetically that is a deal breaker, Iran is part of the Ezekiel 38 story, as is Russia....

Sort of like we should have turned Patton loose on Russia after WWII while we had everything there and ready.

i used to think like that, it seemed so Simple and so i thought.

then i started studying Prophecy and realized that Russia and Iran/Turkey were some missing pieces and needed to stay Intact till the End of Times and then get wiped out.

usa gets wiped out in Revelation 18, preachers don't like to admit it cause it is a Hard Sell. looking at the characteristics of Mystery Babylon, it becomes painfully obvious.

well there you go people, why things are working as they are and not how we 'think they should go'.



blessings, 2 weeks or until...........we meet again?

Revelation prophesies that a third of the earth will burn, will this be nuclear war???...

another thread is discussing nuclear war, so i gave them a few details i know about WW three and what will be coming. this war has already been planned and NO negotiation will stop it. the Oligarchs are others so badly want it.....and will get it.

they are not interested in your opinion as you prolly can ascertain if you know what and why they will do this.


the Book of Revelation discusses i believe nuclear war as an Essential Component of End Times living my friends.....



Revelation’s Prophecy: Is the Burning of a Third of the Earth a Nuclear War?​


Revelation 8:7 describes a dramatic event: “The first angel blew his trumpet, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, and these were thrown upon the earth. And a third of the earth was burned up, and a third of the trees were burned up, and all green grass was burned up”

This passage has prompted considerable debate about whether it predicts a literal, physical catastrophe—potentially even a nuclear war.


Traditional and Literal Interpretations


Many scholars and commentators see this as a literal judgment—fire and destruction affecting a third of the earth’s vegetation, reminiscent of the plagues on Egypt (Exodus 9:18–26)

The text does not specify the mechanism, leaving room for various interpretations. Some suggest natural disasters like volcanic eruptions or meteor strikes could fit the description


Nuclear War as a Modern Interpretation


With the advent of nuclear weapons, some interpreters have proposed that Revelation’s imagery could describe the aftermath of nuclear conflict:


  • Ecological devastation: The burning of a third of the earth’s surface, trees, and grass parallels the kind of destruction that could result from widespread nuclear detonations, which would decimate plant life and disrupt global food supplies
  • Atmospheric effects: Other verses in Revelation describe darkness, polluted waters, and widespread death—effects consistent with nuclear fallout, atmospheric soot, and radiation poisoning
  • Modern analogies: Some commentators note that ancient writers would have described nuclear explosions in terms familiar to them—such as “fire from heaven,” “mountains ablaze,” and “the sky receding like a scroll,” all of which could evoke the imagery of mushroom clouds and missile strikes

Is Nuclear War Explicitly Prophesied?


The Bible does not explicitly mention nuclear weapons or modern warfare technologies. The language used in Revelation is highly symbolic and open to multiple interpretations

While some modern readers see parallels with nuclear war, others caution against reading current technology into ancient texts. The original audience would have understood these as acts of divine judgment, whether literal or symbolic.

well nuff said, this can be an interesting discussion on another thread if you care to jump in: https://debatepolitics.com/threads/when-is-a-nuclear-strike-justified.571612/


blessings all till the end of time and Tribulation.

All the things in Revelations already happened way back in the first century.

not so, that is called Preterism; it doesn't fit what is written in Revelation my friend.

show me the 'Mark of the Beast' in the first century. (he can't of course, but may try to create some fiction)


well FC created some help for those who consume too much Doooom.....



How to stay informed without doom scrolling It’s important to stay informed during turbulent times, but how do you do it without losing your mind?



Limit your intake​

To ensure your stay informed, pick a time when you can pay attention so

Pick a variety of sources​

Even when the news isn’t that anxiety-provoking, media know that they

Push yourself away from the table​

There will be some days when particular events or news stories capture you,


3 good suggestions Sheep, also good are Bunker development and digging, prepping Beans Bibles and Bullet.

tomorrow July 9, but may be Postponed for Taco reasons.

Ooooohhh... Crime.... What can I say? Jerusalem to Jericho is a rough hood.

the Whole World will soon be a Rough hood, the End is Nigh


Iliamna Volcano in Alaska ‘rumbling’ after being inactive for a century;While not a clear sign of imminent eruption, the event highlights the dynamic nature of this glacier-covered peak, which stands 10,000 feet tall.

Have you ever thought about wearing a sandwich board and marching around Time Square? After all, people need to know the end is nigh.

well yeah, i used to go Street Preaching in a college town. great fun and people react in all kinds of ways.

so i do it here, using some of those kinds of Techniques. there are always NEW Ideas and strategies to Street Preach wherever you are....

sometimes i do it in Walmart while waiting in line, just talk to a Friend kind of Loud and Excited. do it through out the store, sometimes people catch on but mostly not.

also....

look a bit out there like my Avatar today....


...also DO Not look 'normal'. be different as illustrated in yur picture. or like the scientist from Back to the Future.

'Normal' doesn't interest people, they walk away, and you want a crowd of some kind. Crowds draw crowds, and so do Hecklers. a good Heckler is what you want, weird people or angry people are fine, and treat them well. invite them afterwards for Coffee, get their number and tell them yur Street Preaching schedule. they will be there, even if they hate you.

learn basic Street Preaching 101, pound on something even a Bible and Holler. take questions and allow them to hurl insults, people luv that too. they know this is Real Life Drama, and you are feeding them a full meal this time.


lastly: learn from the Best.........from experienced Streeet preacherz like me.

watch how i do things on this forum, develop your Hate Crowd and don't try to win cept some times. remember yur opponent is always right, so let him be right especially if he is wrong and stupid.

read my threads and be Crazy like a Fox.


well nuff said, go ahead and take over this thread. i have others to attend to on various forums today.


blessings, keep digging as the End is Near for all of us.

good one. his sign needs to be more Raggedy though, looks fake.

I think you had the middle seat next to me on a connecting flight out of Portland to Spokane a few years back....

yep, captive audience. wait till you are airborne to start in though; really i don't fly any more, so don't worry.

however, at the checkout lanes in the store, that is a different story depending on how long the lines are.



Cord, we have bigger problems then the street preacher guys like me. for many putin & ukraine are the New Normal, and should be anything but normal....

US to send Patriot air defense system to Ukraine as furious Trump blasts two-faced Putin: 'He talks nice, then bombs everybody RUSSIAN NUCLEAR POLICY ALLOWS FOR FIRST STRIKE WITH NUKES THIS IS A DIRECT THREAT NOT EXISTENTIAL ANY LONGER
 

Duuude... I had just gotten off a ship after four months at sea. All that was on my mind was that leggy blonde waiting for me in Spokane.... the last thing I wanted was to be sat next to John the Baptist on the flight there.

perhaps God had different ideas?

maybe God looks at yur future in 10 year increments and sees yur spiritual Trajectory?

maybe you can too?

and then there is the END Times, are you prepared for that, or is today the only day you can see because of Myopia my friend.


NUCLEAR WAR – TOTAL ANNIHILATION OF AMERICA: Three Cities. Ten Seconds. And the Heart of the United States Will Stop Beating. A Nation Turned to Ash and Bone


The Final Warning


We are not prepared — not psychologically, not strategically, not spiritually. We spent trillions chasing phantom enemies overseas, funding diversity bureaucrats, hosting climate pageants — while ignoring the singular threat that could erase us all in less than a minute.


Russia has warned us — not once, not twice, but over and over. We refused to listen. We laughed. We mocked. We tweeted jokes from our ivory towers. But reality is not a meme.


In the first ten seconds, three cities are gone.
In the first ten minutes, America falls to its knees.
In the first ten hours, the entire continent shivers under radioactive snow.


Three missiles. Three cities. Ten seconds.


And then — the darkness comes.



blessings all, dig deeeep and pray hard at yur Mourner's Bench. God is there for you.

Take heart, Rev... one of these days you'll be right about the end of the World.

God does ticket booking for Northwest now? Is He the one who keeps losing my luggage as well?
 
Take heart, Rev... one of these days you'll be right about the end of the World.

thanks. with all the Clowns leading the World to Armageddon, i have NO shortage of material coming into my IN box....

none whatsoever. kinda bothers me, what more can i say to you and how to say it....



Plenty, but he’ll save some for his anticipated grand finale.

true. there is a 'Grand Finale', but it isn't what you think it is my friend.

missiles can fly any where and very fast, consider that. with their submarines sitting off our Coast, all of this can be gone before i finish writing this post.

so yeah, i would call that putin's 'Grand Finale'.


Russia warns of nuclear Armageddon after Trump's latest Ukraine move

WW3 tension has spiked as Vladimir Putin is said to be 'giving detailed thought to using nukes in Ukraine' after Donald Trump's latest move



tt, is this the Grand Finale you had in mind, as i think the Oligarchs already understand this and have prepped their Bunkers fairly well.


blessings, keep digging friends.
