SUP
I HAVE BEEN FOLLOWEDON TWITTER BY A HEBREW ROOTS CHRISTIAN THE END IS NIGH
We know the end is nigh...signs of the Bible are being fulfilled
Yes after Bible carefully laid out all groundwork for the signs to appear
quote:
2 Timothy 3:1-5New International Version (NIV)
3 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.
Question...if what you say is true @The Enlightened Shepherd, how is it that Bible Writers nearly 2000 years ago could have envisioned that their religious world would become the largely hedonistic world we have today?
As 2 Tim 3:4 says "lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God"
perhaps because history is/ cyclic and this has happened before @ShadowKhukuri ?
People back then reading that would have thought Apostle Paul crazy...
but he describes the social affairs of today accurately
1. Bible is not the first, but the last book to "predict" (copy-pase) apocalyptic last age
In a sense you are right @HeimatFreiheitTradition
2. Bible instructs people to be meek, weak, compassionate, passive and non-resistant, because this world is going to come to an end
@HeimatFreiheitTradition
Matthew 24:37-39New International Version (NIV)
37 As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 38 For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man
3. And when the world naurally does near the end, since it's strongest kind gave up it's strenght as per instruction of Bible, it says "Hey, we told you so !"
People were like today just before the flood came
which points when Jesus returning soon...
Yes, thankfully, we know what the world looked like before flood
@The Enlightened Shepherd
1. True
2. Somewhat true
3. Not sure what you mean here
What is not clear
When people become meek, weak, compassionate and passive
Their civilization decays (Not the world, but only them ! Animals can live without us)
@The Enlightened Shepherd while that is generally true, the manner in which that civilization ends is not always the same.
I can instruct you to not resist the evil, and then miraculously predict that evil shall prevail
Also, to your second point @The Enlightened Shepherd , you make a premise that seems a bit off. The Bible does not suggest to its adherents to be weak, it actually points to a time in the Book of Revelation that The God of the Bible will deliver judgment...for example, Noah did not deliver judgment himself.
Nor did his wife, his sons or their wives. But when the Ark's door was closed and the rains fell, the rest of humanity who drowned (as well as animals not of the ark) died. At the hands of the creator
Revelation suggests that judgment in the future will be similar.
Previous bible passages suggest that this God does not delegate the most harshest of judgment
