A bunch of dead bodies

[savagewind]

Matthew 24:37-39 As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 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 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.

Metaphor for being separate from God, therefore separate from the ability to do God's will.

They want to believe it means wicked man's extinction. And I suppose eventually a world being separate from The Life Giver and Life Sustainer means extinction. But I wonder if being "swept away" means leaving the primary doctrine for following after selfish pursuits?

Faith without works is dead. The flood is metaphor for dead faith. It already happened. Of that I am sure.

What already happened? The flood. The flood has come and gone. It is really a kind of silliness to wait for something that has already been. Isn't it?

As though it matters I will supply some scriptural reasoning for support.

"Get away from me you workers of lawlessness" It would look as though a flood has taken them away. Matthew 7:23

"They go into destruction". Indeed without faith in the Savior that is not dead it is where the World is headed. They are being swept away to their own destruction.

Psalm 119:115 Away from me, you evildoers, that I may keep the commands of my God!

Mark 7:7 They worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men.'

Colossians 2:22 These are all destined to perish with use, because they are based on human commands and teachings.

2 Peter 2:12 But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.

Why do they teach it is for the future? How can a person do the faithful works for life if they are waiting to know the command?

You do know what "sowing with the view to the flesh is" , do you not?

It is the opposite of the faithful works for God's glory.

Is it for God's glory what you believe about The Flood?

Is it for God's glory what you believe about the Nephilim?

Is it for God's glory what you believe about sin?

Is it for God's glory that You are separated from each other?

Is it for God's glory that You judge?

You are being swept away from the task of bringing glory to God.

Why not tell me how God is being glorified?

 

[savagewind]

I think I can call it a fact I am not being heard. Not just here, you know, everywhere I have been, so far. If I am telling the truth does it not prove that you have been "swept away"?

 

[savagewind]

People will say it is too late. There is no way after all this time that it could be so wrong. That is incorrect. How so? This is the first time in history that all the tools for knowing are present. Noah had the correct understanding of what would happen, probably why, and how to prepare for it. Are not all the people who believe trusting in Jesus to prepare for them? That is not how Noah responded.

Many will come in my name saying I AM. Matthew 24:5 Isn't that what happened?

But isn't it true that the real truth goes something like this? -

Many coming in my name who say he will be if you will listen to him. How many of those do you think there has been? I do not know of any. Well, there is me. But I seem to all alone. That is how I know the flood has come and gone.

Can you even imagine how I am me? I have the past, I know the fright, I have anonymity, and I have electronics.

 

[savagewind]

It proves to me the power and the miracle of God that I am not shut down yet.

 

[savagewind]

Am I looking forward to it? Foolishly, yes! : hamster :

LOL. Yes. Yes it should be.

Um It is a very fine gift that it has been made funny but do You think it is necessary? I'm not talking to you fine person. I am taking to everyone, I guess. It's not working very well this declaration stuff.

Thank you for viewing my thread.

I do not mean the telling of jokes. I love funny. And jokes are good. I mean it is funny that I see things no one else can see. It is funny.

Are you spamming me?

 

[savagewind]

If people will not wake up from their spiritual slumber there will be no Great Day of Jehovah or anyone else. How do you think it feels to be someone who knows that? It cannot be anything but funny. If it wasn't funny it would be way too heavy to know/carry. So give her some spam. Whatever. I am not surprised. Sigh.

Spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam

OK I can talk about spam. Are you calling me spammer? I wouldn't want to assume anything evil against anyone. I should not assume you are calling me spammer. But do I have a choice?

What is spam?

Spam is flooding the Internet with many copies of the same message, in an attempt to force the message on people who would not otherwise choose to receive it. Most spam is commercial advertising, often for dubious products

What is spam?

How is a different opinion of the flood, that I have published exactly once, called spam, please? Do you accuse me of attempting to make a profit? I will tell you what is missing on Religious Forums. A happy face laughing it's head off.

I can't figure out what this thread is about or understand what you are saying.
