Guest linssue55 Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 An article i noticed back in the late 1980s had scientific measurement of wave-heights over time. That these wave-heights were increasing-that the ocean was becoming more turbulent. Mentioned this to a brother in Christ [named John] as a possible fulfillment of the above Scripture and he kind of scoffed, since his view of that <Luke 21:25-26> Scripture is that "sea and waves roaring" was meant to be taken as a figure of speech for turmoil of peoples and nations, and not literally, like i had. My understanding is that The Holy Bible does refer to that the way John was telling me-he was a second-year Bible student at that time. I am a literalist unless-to me-Scripture requires some figure of speech. A few years later i saw something on television [was going through some intense spiritual attacks] that maybe was a vision? Don't know. But as best as i can recall it was TV news and showing the oceans and gigantic waves. Today's Yahoo article ties into this-any comments? http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor...cience_waves_dc This may help explain it better........Luke 21:24-27 24~~"And they shall fall by the edge of the sword {nearly 1.9 million Jews were killed in 70 AD}, and shall be led away captive into all nations {97,000 Jews were taken away}. And Jerusalem shall be trodden down by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled {end of the 5th cycle of discipline and 2nd Advent of Christ}. " 25~~"And there will be signs in the sun and moon and stars, and on the earth distress of nations in great anxiety at the roaring of the sea and the surging waves." 26~~"People will 'be fainting'/ 'have instability of the soul' from fear {lack of doctrine = lack of courage from doctrine = fear usually} and from the expectation of what is coming on the world; for the powers of the heavens will be shaken." 27``"Then they will see {optanomai} the Son of Man {Jesus Christ in Hypostatic Union} coming in a cloud with power and great glory."

Seemed to stand out to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Prophecy Countdown Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 What are we starting to see? Matt 24: For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8All these are the beginning of sorrows. Could It be that transgression is the problem relating to Isaiah 24: 20? The moral law is above natural law therefore does transgression effect the natural law? We are told of the apostasy to come and there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
