Eating in the End Times

I hold to no particular eschatology and God is very free to do as He chooses. When a doctrine (dispensationalism) limits the Lord High God, I do find that less than encouraging quite often.

Amen.

To address the topic... victuals are to be had hither and yon.

Wasps, bees, and ants: over 30 grams of protein per 100 grams of weight. Bon appetit! 

Earthworms: rich in vitamins and minerals like calcium. Magnifique! 

Broadleaf plantain: considered a weed by most, both the leaves and seeds are edible. Broadleaf plantain is found in most parts of the world so by all means, dig in! 

I see the makings of a mighty fine dinner, yes?

I do! 

Added bonus. Locusts... yep, locusts. When wheat is the fruit of the field, we eat wheat; when the locust comes to devour the fruit of the field, we eat the locust.

Did you read and check every Scripture I provided? 

Yes, but I have studied the book of Revelation and it doesn't say the Antichrist takes over just part of the world.

[Starise]

Faith overcomes our fears. We do what we can and trust God with the rest. 

We are told there will be famines and wars. How has anyone survived these in the past? It could be argued it's a combination of things.

-We are told to be diligent to see to the state of our business affairs. I think this includes looking at future provisions or at the very least having the best plan we can formulate.

-God is in control. We are his. When our rope runs out He stands in the gap. All of us have been provided for up until this point in our lives. God's provision is not dependent on external circumstances. If He decides to protect us nothing will stop Him from it.

-God deals with these things in different ways as can be seen with the biblical characters Joseph and Stephen. Joseph was built up and blessed even with evil all around him. The Lord allowed Stephen to be a martyr. In both cases God was with each man. We could argue Joseph was the better off. Was he really? Stephen went to be with the Lord.

Only these ten kingdoms will give their power and kingdoms to him (Rev. 13:1; 17:12-17).


Certain countries WILL ESCAPE his rule (Dan. 11:40-44).


Certain countries will make war on him at the very time he is supposed to be ruling the whole world (Read Dan. 11:40-44).

If he was ruling the whole world this could not happen. Because he will rule and reign only over ten countries inside the Old Roman Empire territory,

It sounds like you are making up your own interpretation of the verses.

One cannot make this up?

Ten kingdoms are to be formed inside the old Roman Empire from the present
states in that territory. It is clear that there will be at least another war
in Europe, Asia, and Africa in order for this to be fulfilled. When the ten
kingdoms are formed, then Daniel 7:23-24 will be fulfilled. These ten kingdoms
will be the Revised Roman Empire which is symbolized by the ten toes on the
great image of Dan. 2, the ten horns on the fourth beast of Dan. 7:7-8, 19-24,
the ten horns on the dragon and the beast of Rev. 12, 13, and 17. This
formation of the ten kingdoms will be necessary to fulfill both Dan. 7 and 8. 

 

It is impossible to misinterpret what is written if one will take at face value what is plainly written. Every person that has intelligence enough to read what God says, has intelligence enough to believe what He says, and that is all that is necessary. The very fact that everyone can see what is says well enough to accept it, or make or to make a change in it as he pleases, proves that he can understand what it plainly says. If what he reads is not clear, he could not understand it well enough to want to change it from what is says to what it does not say. Thus if all can understand what is plainly written well enough either to believe it and leave it as it reads, or to change it if he chooses, it is clear that all can, if they choose to believe it and leave it as it is. A solid unshakable faith will be created if God's Word will be taken just as it is. Faith will never have to change because God's Word itself will never change.

So what part of the world will the Antichrist not have control over? What will happen during these times to the part you say the Antichrist has no control over?

All the Countries outside the Old Roman Empire territory. America for one. She will do what she has always done. She will support those she
is aligned with at the time. Australia, England, Russia, South America, and many others. They will continue to trade and survive as they have done before the Antichrist. Scripture also shows that the Arabs will protect
Israel during the last three and one half years of this age. In Dan. 11:41 we
read that Arabia or ancient Edom and Moab will escape the Antichrist. In Isa.
16:1-5; Ezek. 20:33-35; Matt. 24:15-21; Rev. 12:5-7 we read of Israel fleeing
for protection into the wilderness of Edom and Moab, and since they escape the
Antichrist and flee into this country for protection, then it is clear that the
Arabs protect them during this time. The Bible names the very city in Edom and
Moab that Israel will flee to for protection during the tribulation. It is Sela
or Petra, the capital of Edom (Isa. 16:1-5; 26:20-21; 63:1-8).

The United States isn't even mentioned in the book of Revelation. What will happen to it I don't know. Are you post trib? So you think all those people who are left behind in the 7 year tribulation will have these places to hide?

I am pre-trib. You asked what countries wont be affected by the antichrist. I told you. They don't all have to be mentioned because any country not included in the ten kingdoms of the Old Roman territory wont be under his control. Its very simple to see. He will only have control over the ten kingdoms of the Old Roman empire.
