Killer Asteroid

Like I have said on a previous thread one of these days the earth is going to get it. God knows when. 

Maybe they are "going to get it", but people already are getting it. Even in Jesus day a tower fell and Jesus told them: "Or those eighteen who died when the tower in Siloam fell on them—do you think they were more guilty than all the others living in Jerusalem?" Luke 13:4 

Today we have the fires in California and storms in Florida that destroy whole cities. How much worse can they get it?  Were they more guilty or maybe they were more worthy to suffer for the sake of the redemption of creation.  "I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us." Romans 8:18

Aaah more fear mongering from those who want something to fear. Nevermind the fact there's thousands of such asteroids and to even think that one of these is going to destroy earth involves a very loose interpretation of scripture. 

Somebody somewhere may get clobbered. In this case, California as usual. For the most part these are given as signs: “And I shall give signs in the Heavens and miracles in The Earth, blood, fire and plumes of smoke.” (Acts 2:19) I think the date is very significant as it marks the 2,000 year anniversary of the Church age.

That is a quote from chief Dan George from the movie little big man. Originally it came from a real chief, Low Dog in the late 1800s.

 

I have heard that quote in several of the old western novels of frontier life I have read.
It was usually when the Indian or the pioneer/cowboy was confronted with an overwhelming enemy. Drawing upon his courage and accepting the inevitable probable death, with honor.

Concerning some overwhelming asteroid to hit earth, if it is in God's plan or not, what is to be will be and God's will be done. No asteroid will upset God's plan, for sure.

Any day is a good day to finally go home and be in the presence of our creator.

We have nothing to fear, @Mike Mclees. What should we be afraid of when our lives are not our own?  

If an asteroid impacting the earth is the will of the Lord, then let it be so!

Okay, but for what? A hit, or a miss? We could pray that God's will be done, but I think that is what happens anyway. Nothing happens apart from either God's approval, or permission!

I'm just praying that it hits after football season. 😉

Asteriods can be really painful.

Oh, maybe I confused that with something else.

Nothing that a little soap and water can't cure.

How much worse can it get? OH BOY just wait. It will make those disasters seem like a walk in the park.
