He gave Noah that long to be ready. could be wrong but that is what's planted in my brain. Well if you read the commentaries; it is a highly contested scripture. Which btw, my main reason for challenging the OP was the interpretation given to present times. The context is noahs day ie the flood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the topic of this thread again? Well, let's see.... we've got a vision in the sky that will really be there and hasn't happened since past the time of Adam and Eve..... and it seems that that we all have a different idea of what it means (if anything).

Well missmuffet, consider it however you wish. It is one thing to say: "In my opinion . . . . " It is another thing to say: "According to verse such and such, it appears that this and that happens, because . . . " But that is not what you did, was it? Instead, you inserted some graphic of someone's interpretation of eschatological events. You did not give credit, nor name the source (I assume this is not original) . . . and then go one to declare "This is it" with more certainty that even the Bible states about a sequence of events. I am not that surprised that you took it as a negative. Or did I misunderstand, and you did not mean to imply that the graphic depicts what is going to happen, according to you? If you want me to treat you more positively (since you judge this as negative), then offer how you came to your conclusions. Explain the scripture verses and the explanations of them that lead you to know what you think you know. Develop it as though you thought this out, instead of pasting the work of others then declaring your certainty that they are right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not against opinions in the least, I want you to have yours. My reaction, was that I noticed that you did not state an opinion, might be true for other, but yours struck me not as an opinion, just a statement of this is how it is, and then posted someone else's work, that is all. Had you said this is how I think it might be, or this is what a believe, I would have ignored that, but I do admit that when people just vote (when not asked for a vote) with "I believe X", or do not state reasons of their own study of the word, it annoys me a little, and I probably react to their lazyness, more than view. That is a shortcoming of mine. If people want to contribute to a conversation they should do so, I have asked you before, for YOUR reason, not the reasons of others, i guess I just expect too much of you! Sorry!
