The trouble not everyone will. What about you. Are you willing to pay the same cost Rom 14:12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.

Genesis 4 . 21And his brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of all who play the harp and flute. 22And Zillah gave birth to Tubal-cain, a forger of every implement of bronze and iron. And the sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah. This thought came to me ... Wasn't Abel the first martyr for the faith? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right out of Stepford wives. Check it out. They use their technology to make sure that those robots are anatomically correct? Medical science has difficulty with human women having children so it's a big stretch (pardon the pun) for a robot to be outfitted with working wombs and the human physical systems that get involved to have a bun in the oven from sperm to term. Seems easier for the man to just marry a human woman and hire out the robots as a surrogate womb who will self-cesarean at the right time. But anyway.. it's a remote similarity to what Daniel prophesied about concerning what amounts to a golem in the Jewish mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By faith he was commended as righteous when God gave approval to his gifts. And by faith he still speaks, even though he is dead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rising above the mass of detail, so poignant at the time to those whose lives made it up, they rightly claim attention, for they turn the experience of the way that lies behind into guidance for the track that stretches before. One is that the Pilgrim Church has possessed in the Scriptures a safe and sufficient guide for all the way from Pentecost to the present time, and has the assurance that it will suffice until that lamp shining in a dark place shall pale before the glory of the appearing of Him Who is the Living Word (2 Peter 1. 19). A second is that the Pilgrim Church is separate from the World; though in it is not of it. It never becomes an earthly institution. Though a witness to the world and a blessing in it, yet, since the world which crucified Christ does not change, and the disciple is content to be as his Master, the pilgrims still exhort one another with the words: "Let us go forth therefore unto Him without the camp, bearing His reproach. For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come" (Heb. 13. 13, 14). A third is that the Church is One. In so far as we know ourselves to be members of the Pilgrim Church we acknowledge as our fellow-pilgrims all who tread the Way of Life. Passing differences, however keen at the time, grow dim as we view the whole pilgrimage spread out before us. In deepest humility as we think of the littleness of our own part, and with heartfelt delight in our fellows, we claim them as such." The Pilgrim Church by E. H. Broadbent.

Or a testament on how fast man can advance like today we have gone from horse and a cart to move around to flying in outer space in a little over 100 years. yes. but things are changing at a high accelerated speed making only yesterday ancient history. Just go through you tube and see things that will blow your mind yet these things actually exist now. Even man will soon be out dated and useless. Many of us new the Bible spoke of the time of the end but just like me we saw these things that will not come about in our time. it would be in another age so we were at ease, but now we see the end of days at our doorstep. So are we of the five wise or the five foolish. Complacency is death. Going to church is good but tradition will not be enough. Please hear what Im saying. Your children have been stolen by a perverted society. Government is about to change and the people will love it. Wealth is our only goal today. God no longer exists. and morality went out the window . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
