Simply advisories about the possibility of a great earthquake
happening right before a total solar eclipse as prophesied in the
Revelation of LORD Jesus Christ.
"There was a great earthquake. The sun turned black like sackcloth
made of goat hair..." (Revelation 6:12)
The great earthquake did occur as a magnitude 6 earthquake under the
most populous city in the world, Tokyo. GOD mercifully made this
earthquake hundreds of miles deep so as not to harm anyone. The total
solar eclipse also did happen both as predicted in Revelation and as
predicted by astronomers, witnessed by each of the seven ancient
churches of Christ in the order these churches are listed in
Revelation.

These remain imminent. Simply behold the ongoing developments in Iran/
Tehran which represents modern day Babylon in its posturing to
threaten the annihilation of Israel.

Restricting amount is most certainly a diet; "diet" does not
refer only to restricting type.

Big deal. Tokyo is on the Pacific ring of fire, and gets 20%
of the world's earthquakes of magnitude 6 or greater.
And magnitude 6 -- which is what that distant earthquake registered --
is hardly a Millennial event on the Pacific ring. For example, here's what
you can expect if you're a Kiwi:
Records dating from the 1840s show that, on average,
New Zealand can expect several magnitude 6 earthquakes
every year, one magnitude 7 every 10 years, and an 8 every
century.
The Beginning of the End of the World ought to be a little
more flashy than just one more damn here-we-go-again event.

Wonder what the useless fucker was doing during Hiroshima and
Nagasaki?
He isn't the one who overlooked anything. Brighter folks learn the meanings
of words and manage to recognize which meaning is being used. In this case
what had been generated there would not pass before all had been fulfilled.
In addition to what is obvious in the English, there is also the fact that
the Author designates three different things generated by using three
different words for generation.
The Author uses "genea," a word used to designate a natural son, to
designate the natural branches generated by Israel (Jacob)(Matt. 24:34). He
uses "genos," a word for adopted son, to designate the church, generated by
adoption: "ye are a chosen generation [genos], a royal priesthood, an holy
nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who
hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light" (1 Peter 2:9).
The Author uses a third word "gennema" to refer to all mankind generated by
Adam.
The significance can be seen where the Author uses two different words
together to explain how mankind generated by Adam can escape the damnation
of hell.
Matthew 23:33-36
Ye serpents, ye generation [gennema-those generated by Adam] of vipers,
how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
[34] Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and
scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall
ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city: [35]
That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the
blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom
ye slew between the temple and the altar. [36] Verily I say unto you, All
these things shall come upon this generation [Jesus generated by
Israel/Jacob].
He bore all our sins on the cross.
--
http://www.geocities.com/alphadieg...@sbcglobal.net/
Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as
a little child, he shall not enter therein. (Mark 10:15)
Well, I certainly was not aware of that! I suppose Jesus was speaking
Greek, then? Or, if he used Aramaic, maybe there are three different
words for "generation" in Aramaic too? I sure don't know. Can you tell
us what they are?

Not only ours, but the sins of all men, even the sins of those who
murdered the prophets and righteous men in previous ages.
And, whatever language Jesus was using, his generation remains, as
Jesus rose from the dead and is still alive! His generation is unique,
as I said.
Doug
The fact is that the early church believed the words as written and problems
arose as everyone noticed that the generation in question did die.
As with most biblical things the meaning suits the times.
The end time is immediate for those who suffer the first death without
salvation from LORD Jesus Christ.
> The fact is that the early church believed the words as written and problems

Those who have been saved through their faith in LORD Jesus Christ
remain asleep in HIM though their physical bodies have become
lifeless.
> As with most biblical things the meaning suits the times.
Actually, the truth remains invariant though the flawed understanding
of the truth by those who remain of this world is ever changing to
suit the times.
>From Acts 7:54-60
**** begin Scripture reading****
When they heard this, they were furious and gnashed their teeth at
him. But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, looked up to heaven and saw
the glory of GOD, and Jesus standing at the right hand of GOD. "Look,"
he said, "I see heaven open and the Son of Man standing at the right
hand of GOD." At this they covered their ears and, yelling at the top
of their voices, they all rushed at him, dragged him out of the city
and began to stone him. Meanwhile, the witnesses laid their clothes at
the feet of a young man named Saul.
While they were stoning him, Stephen prayed, "LORD Jesus, receive my
spirit." Then he fell on his knees and cried out, "LORD, do not hold
this sin against them." When he had said this, he fell asleep.
**** end Bible reading ****
Amen.

Who did you kill from bad advice, Chung? It's obvious you're
suffering a psychotic breakdown with all the Pixie belief. That's a

It seems you are suffering from delusions of grandeur with the
specific false belief that you are a psychiatrist.
Would suggest you inform your doctor(s) about this delusion. If you
are currently taking psychotropic medications, you will likely need
them to be either changed or increased.

We don't give three year olds psychotropic medications. You would

No, I am not an advocate of low-carb dieting which does result in the

That's odd. What I found in the early church rapture ezpectations was a few
millennia before His return.
Tertullian (circa 160-225 AD):
"But we do confess that a kingdom is promised to us upon the earth, although
before heaven, only in another state of existence; inasmuch as it will be
after the resurrection for a thousand years in the divinely-built city of
Jerusalem, 'let down from heaven,'"
Justin Martyr (circa 100-165 AD):
"We have perceived, moreover, that the expression, 'The day of the Lord is
as a thousand years,' is connected with this subject. And further, there was
a certain man with us, whose name was John, one of the apostles of Christ,
who prophesied, by a revelation that was made to him, that those who
believed in our Christ would dwell a thousand years in Jerusalem; and that
thereafter the general, and, in short, the eternal resurrection and judgment
of all men would likewise take place. Just as our Lord also said, 'They
shall neither marry nor be given in marriage, but shall be equal to the
angels, the children of the God of the resurrection.'"
Irenaeus (circa 130-202 AD):
"For in as many days as this world was made, in so many thousand years shall
it be concluded. And for this reason the Scripture says: Thus the heaven and
the earth were finished, and all their adornment. And God brought to a
conclusion upon the sixth day the works that He had made; and God rested
upon the seventh day from all His works.' This is an account of the things
formerly created, as also it is a prophecy of what is to come. For the day
of the Lord is as a thousand years; and in six days created things were
completed: it is evident, therefore, that they will come to an end at the
sixth thousand year.
"But when this Antichrist shall have devastated all things in this world, he
will reign for three years and six months, and sit in the temple at
Jerusalem; and then the Lord will come from heaven in the clouds, in the
glory of the Father, sending this man and those who follow him into the lake
of fire; but bringing in for the righteous the times of the kingdom, that
is, the rest, the hallowed seventh day; and restoring to Abraham the
promised inheritance, in which kingdom the Lord declared, that 'many coming
from the east and from the west should sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and
Jacob.'
"The predicted blessing, therefore, belongs unquestionably to the times of
the kingdom, when the righteous shall bear rule upon their rising from the
dead."

Didn't have to be anything he did. Among men, it's not unusual for
schizophrenia to show up around college age. And it can be "masked" by
seeming to be socially acceptable religious devotion (such as how do you
tell which people mean "god speaks to me" metaphorically and which mean
they hear voices?) until it enters full blown woo-woo (technically
speaking).
His age and the events in his life fit pretty well. It wasn't long after
college he was booted from his first job. Then he showed up on Usenet,
actually rather coherent--if a bit loopy--but progressed into full blown

He said He would blot life from the earth in seven days (Gen 7:4).
He said a day is as a thousand years (2 Pet 3:8).
The first day: "of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt
not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely
die" (Gen. 2:17).
The seventh day: "the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in

shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein
shall be burned up" (2 Pet. 3:10).

There is no mention of days in teh second story of creation found in Gen 2.
Days are mentioned in the first story.
1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the
evening and the morning were the first day.

That is not what the NIV Bible says nor the KJV.
4 Seven days from now I will send rain on the earth for forty days
and forty nights, and I will wipe from the face of the earth every
living creature I have made." (NIV)
4For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty

8But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with

This is what I get from that passage too however.
Adam and Eve did not die the very day they ate from the tree of Knowledge

No the "earth" was created some time before God took it and cause
Creation to be on it.
YEs the Y2k did it seems start about on the 7th day and God rested on
the seventh Day. I bet that "REST" is a whole other tipic and study to
explore.
That is Why The Bible says Now the earth was void and formless. . .
we have now way of Knowing just how much time went by from
"In the beginning God created the Heavens and the earth" to
"now the earth was formless and void" passage.

No, we are in the sixth day. The time of the messiah is "the last days" (Is
2:2) which began with His coming (not His birth) He came the way He was
prophesied to come: "behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and
having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of
an ass" (Zech. 9:9), the time He was prophesied to come: "Know therefore and
understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to
build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and
threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall,
even in troublous times" (Dan. 9:25).

No, He reveals which verses go where to reveal what He is saying:

But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for
they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are

We can accept it as true because we can not disprove it.
But we can count off the years of Creation if we do the math in the bible
and follow the time line.
That is why I say Y2K year 2,000 was the transitions between the 6,000 years

Evasion noted.
Money does not have to change hands to sell an idea. Vast sums of money roll
in after the sale is made.
The story tells us that the ELOHIM found an "unformed and void",
water-covered earth, out of which was formed the whole universe, referred to
as "heaven and earth". How could this be? Only by assuming, as the story
does, that the Sun, Moon and all the stars are tiny lights affixed to the
solid sky dome which is also holding back the "waters above".
The story reflects the primitive cosmography known and held by the ancient
authors."
It, however, does not take a scholar as anyone who can read an untranslated
version agrees with this.
Those scholars who expressed this opinion missed some information
conveyed by one of the prophecies of Daniel, that indicates the
"primitive cosmography" that they described was introduced into the
Hebrew scriptures in Hellenistic times.
During the reign of Antiochus IV of Syria, the cosmology of the OT was
modified, and adapted to the geocentric views of the Greeks. Many of
the Jews living in that period admired the hellenistic society and its
geocentric cosmology. Antiochus initiated reforms that required
everyone in his realm to become "one people" and conform to the
Hellenistic religion. He initiated the process of revision of the
cosmology of the OT that resulted in its apparent support of the
concept of a rigid sky. It was during this period that the Jerusalem
temple was dedicated to Zeus Olympos.
Also in the Hellenistic period, a Greek translation of the Hebrew
scriptures was produced. The so-called "Letter of Aristeas", which is
thought to have been written abpout 150 BC, tells the story of the
translation. It claims the Hebrew scriptures needed to be "corrected"
and I suggest this refers to the Bible's cosmology, that was changed
to conform to Greek beliefs about a rigid sky which held the stars.
Changes in the story of creation in Genesis 1 identified the "raqia"
or "firmament" made on day 2 with the rigid sky; originally the
"raqia" was the earth's crust that was formed "in the midst of the
waters. This was accomplished by adding "and God called the firmament
Heaven" in Genesis 1:8, and other changes were made to disguise this
one. As a result of the corruptions initiated by Antiochis IV and his
agents, in the traditional text of Genesis 1 the word "firmament"
occurrs 9 times!
Here is a quote from an ancient document called the Letter of
Aristeas, relating the report of Dimetrius to Ptolemy Philadelphus in
Alexandria about the need to include the books of the Old Testament in
the library of the king: "Books of the Law of the Jews, with some few
others, are wanting. For it happens that these books are written in
the Hebrew script and language, but, according to the evidence of the
experts, have been somewhat carelessly committed to writing and are
not in their original form; for they have never had the benefit of
royal attention. It is important that these books, duly corrected,
should find a place in your library..." Note the intent was to
"correct" the Hebrew scriptures in the Greek translation. In fact, it
was the cosmology that was changed, as indicated by Daniel's
prophecy.

So the fact that this was said immediately before the Flood story

M,
Really? Can you point to any scientific journals that have verses?
The evidence about the age of the earth is overwhelming. Those who deny
it do so only because of their religious prejudices.
No one claims that Jesus or God wrote anything in the Bible.
So animals then Adam and Eve is exactly the same as Adam, animals and then
Eve?

Because the bible is about the only book that uses this scheme. There has
been a move for a long time to do this in law but this would put a few
publishers out of business.
If you are aware of any science books that use this method, please let us
know.

I have no "religion". but I question the proposed scientific age time they
impose upon us with out qualifying how they reached that assumption
of earth age and universe times.
It really looks like they just think now one will question them, but I do
Every time they voice a age number it looks like an open throat lie.
All books written by good journalist use
Book title,
Chapters
and sentences,
Just because they are not nimbered does not meat they are not

I see, so you have no problem with Book 1 Chapter two, line 55.
You find this a valid way to reference things and having to count 55 lines
is no problem for you.
You would consider this sufficient to find the information?
Be sure to think about this a bit before answering because with singular
exceptions it is false. I'll give you a hint. Consider the line below.
This is a line of text. and while there is little information in it it is
still a line of text.
Starting with "All books written by good journalist use" as line one tell me
what line is that on?
You may assume that there is only one blank line between paragraphs,
something not generally true.
M,
No one has to make that claim.
The Bible is the "inspired" word of God.
so it becomes "God's " written word.
God son Jesus is the "living" word of the Living creator God.
All other gods are "created" by god and used as gods by man
or man themselves create their own gods.

In the Holy Spirit, I know that the ten commandments in the Bible were

There are similarly other parts of the Bible that have been written by
LORD Almighty GOD, Creator of heaven and earth, and Author of all
reality.
Others who are guided by the Holy Spirit will be able to contribute
along this vein if they choose.

Seek something of flesh. That is the same problem of the Pharisees.
HIM is the people of the Kingdom of God that have HE on the inside.

Jude 1:14 (ASV)
And to these also Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying,
Behold, the Lord came with ten thousands of his holy ones,
So, do tell me where is the words of Enoch in your 1611 Bible book?
Sure. Your English teacher must be crying right about now. Could you
show me a reference to that use in the past century that would show that
it actually would be applied to a journal article? I know what a verse
is in a religious text (and that isn't a sentence). I know what a verse
is in a poem (and that isn't a sentence). Could you provide examples of
people using it to mean "sentence". I'm not looking for idiom, that is,
I'm not looking for "she gave me a dressing down, chapter and verse".
That wouldn't necessarily apply to a religious text, but it certainly
doesn't apply to a journal article.

It wasn't an assumption and the people who claim it is are generally
either badly educated in science, have religious doctrines that they
want to substitute for science or both. You must be an American, because
I don't know of any other people who have managed to get past K-12 or
equivalent without understanding how science works. Americans, on the
other hand, manage to get into college without a clue about science,
even when they aren't homeschooled.

Your total ignorance of science is noted. I'd say you were defaming
scientists, but that would erroneously imply that you have a clue about
science.
You made the stupid claim.
>If you what some one to look at the information you are trying to
>profess then you give good directions to where you are quoting it
>form, not evading the question.
It is clear that you have never seen a journal citation. Yes, there is a
proper form (well, there are a few competing proper forms, depending on
the discipline, but they are all very similar). I have never heard
anyone refer to them as book, chapter and verse.
The particular fact under discussion, that the earth is about 4.55
billion years old, is one that has been confirmed by a number of
different scientific experiments.
The USGS has an older page called Geologic Time
<http://pubs.usgs.gov/gip/geotime/> that is fairly accessible.
The Wikipedia also has an article
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_the_Earth>
You will note that there is not absolute agreement on the age because
the scientific evidence is imperfect from that time.
It is not like Young Earth Creationists fighting over their perception
of the date of creation, whether Ussher was accurate or not.

You dismiss science without understanding it at all and you have the
arrogance to tell others to grow up?
The universe is not all about you.
Words have different meanings. Don't play Humpty Dumpty, it makes you

"... There's glory for you."
"I don't know what you mean by 'glory,'" Alice said.
Humpty Dumpty smiles contemptuously. "Of course you don't--till
I tell you. I meant 'there's a nice knock-down argument for you!'"
"But glory doesn't mean "a nice knock-down argument," Alice objected.
"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful tone,
"it means just what I choose it to mean--neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice "whether you can make words mean so
many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master--that's
all."
There is no evidence that this claim is correct. It is a claim based on
faith alone.
>so it becomes "God's " written word.
That would depend on what inspiration means and whether the writing
really is what God wanted. Other religious texts also claim to be of
God. The Koran was dictated to Mohammed by God. The Book of Mormon was
translated by Joseph Smith with the help of an angel. Both of those have
every bit as much evidence to support them as your claim does.
>God son Jesus is the "living" word of the Living creator God.
Is He? Where? There is no evidence to support that claim.
>All other gods are "created" by god and used as gods by man
>or man themselves create their own gods.
You make that claim but you have no way to show it. Other religions
reject your doctrines as false. They claim that you worship three gods
or that the god you teach about is falsely depicted in some other way.
You cannot show that your religion is not man-made.
So why do you ignore all of the other commandments in the Bible?

Not when I went to school, they didn't. But then, back when I went to

I once had an instructor who believed open book tests were a necesssity
because knowing where to look was more important than knowing. For a fast
reader who knew how to use a Table of contents and an Index, this pretty
much meant a B with little study. But he always had these killer matching
questions and unless you studied you did not get an A because those answers
were not in those "chapters and lines or page numbers in them to identify
what is said where in the book."
Odd, my dictionary is a book and does not have "chapters and lines or page

It's not a mind game but does require you to think.
Apparently you don't want to do that.
Unless the verses are agreed upon in advance your claim will ONLY work in
books with a single printing.
Line five in your book may be line ten in some other book. It depends on the
layout of the text, the size of the print, and the size of the book.
Your inane comment will not work unless the verse has a specific, agreed
upon in advance, content.
You must be *far* older than my 66 because when I went to school, even a
very good one, science classes were taught, but the core concepts of science
were not.
I would start everybody's science education off with a semester that taught
what a theory was.
In many, if not most American schools, it would have to be done on line
because then as now the PE teacher gets "stuck" with those classes.
It would also mandate written work that required proper grammar.
In the early 80's the government tried to mandate that teachers know as much
as their students in the subjects they did not teach. After all they had
been saying this was important, right?
The teachers and the unions soon got rid of that notion
Such is the right of freedom of speech. There is a cost that everyone
pays.

Yes, I had the usual PE teacher-as-science-teacher in my sophomore
year biology I, but I got lucky. I had one who was actually interested
in the subject. And the guy who taught biology II in my junior year
was an actual bona fide science teacher who honestly knew his stuff.
Incidentally, if I were in charge of public education, the gym coach
doing double duty as a "science teacher" would be one of the first
things I'd do away with.

Really? So what do you propose that the Bible
is made up of? Seriously.
--
Hope is for those who do not live in grace.
The Bible is the inerrant word of the living God!
If you don't believe the Bible, don't tell me that
you are a Christian. I won't believe you. To make
that claim, is to be a heretic who does not know God.
Obviously, the way to accomplish this is for Christians to stop
posting religous shit here. Then the atheists won't post here. The
latter are only a response to the Christian crap. Why do you think you
have a right to post off topic posts here? When you do it you're
eventually going to get various responses, including complaints for OT
posting, and virulence from aheists. You and your kind brought it on
yourself. Now all you have to do is cease and desist. You put normal
everyday good Christians in a bad light by your behavior. The
principal offender here obviously thinks he was chosen by god to post
OT messages here, and thinks himself a martyr. Spread your insanity
and irrationality somewhere else!
