(Matthew 24:12, ESV) Plagues + Lawlessness. Yes, most Biblical. Good point, dh. Rev 16:10-11 And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, (11) And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KJV I can just picture Jesus speaking to His disciples this above and knowing at that time they also knew the OT below Gen 6:5-6 5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.

You seem to have an amazing... indepth knowledge of the bible. This is just a curiosity question if that's ok ?? Thanks for your positive comment, Addy. Yes, aside from the fact that my father and grandfather were both Anglican clergymen in a longer line of clerics and the such, in 1988 I developed a strong desire to know what was being taught at Bible Colleges and the like. I had already done some basic study through 4 terms of night classes at an AOG School of the Bible, and was doing an International Correspondence Institute course on Christian Service but it seemed to me the Holy Spirit was stirring me to more. I began looking at going to a Bible College in another city but my wife was not keen on moving. As providence woud have it the AOG started a Ministry Training College in our city 8 minutes walk from our place, as a result of which I gained 2 Diplomas, one for the foundational theory module and 1 for the practical fieldwork module. What I find most useful is the threads on internet forums that prompt me to be like the Bereans, searching the Scriptures to see if it is so. Also, I have an associate who has a fantastic memory for Scriptures, and he keeps me on my toes with quotes that either confirm or deny matters, or leave them open for further examination. Blessings to you, @Addy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

America is tearing itself apart internally [morally, politically, economically and spiritually], and we all know a house divided cannot stand. There's a big difference of word meaning between 'united' and 'unity'; as in the United States. Could all that is happening be a contributing cause and reason the worlds super power is conspicuously absent in scripture? Our nation is so far in debt, both publicly and privately it boggles the mind. Government debt [the debt the public is legally responsible for] is increasing by the TRILLIONS. Previous to this 'trillions' giveaway, our country was bankrupt and insolvent. The global economies and production are crashing. Imagine what's going to happen when our party crashes, and the welfare checks, food stamps, Section 8 housing and entitlements have to come to an end? If one single incident such as the one we're experiencing now, triggered what's happening now [riots and lawlessness], do you suppose our society will remain calm when the free bread and circuses stop flowing? Just a thought... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like America is tearing itself apart. The end time has begun and prophecies will unfold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Matthew 24:12, ESV) I also had this verse come to mind, along with 2 Timothy 3:1-5 But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like in the days of Noah. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
