Or, we live in terrible times now and should probably worry about those. There have been multiple generations since Christ that all died. There is no reason to think ours will be any different. What does the Bible say about 9/11? Not a thing. The Bible deals with events that God deems worthy to mention. It says NOTHING of 9/11. The fact anyone could take this stuff seriously is beyond me. There is such thing as prophecy...and there is such thing as quack theories. The original post falls into the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing more to it than that. Threads like this are an embarrassment to Christianity. Edited March 7, 2007 by Pizzaguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A christian aware of what the Bible says on 9/11 could use that information to show people that there is truth in the Bible. Prophecy fulfilled in our days. Instead of learning how to share that with non believers, they say that 9/11 is not mentioned in the Bible. It's those christians who will not understand the coming events because they simply didn't understand and still don't understand what happened on September 11th 2001. And worse than that is that many of them don't want to understand. May the love of Jesus be in us Edited March 7, 2007 by c7l14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna say this again: I've shown some people the amazing details of 9/11 in the Bible and many of them were close to tears. This is enough for you.

I'm sorry no one else is willing to tell you this, but what you have to say is bunk. The lunar eclipse is simply a natural occurrence. The "9/11 passages" is nothing more than bad interpretation. Pray tell, if these were meant to foretell 9/11, then where were you on 9/10? If these interpretations are true, then you are a great criminal for not letting us know about these events, and therefore should be shunned. If you are wrong, then we have no incentive to listen to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is in reference to you doubting that our generation may be the last. Do you believe the reestablishment of Israel as a nation and the liberation of Jerusalem were a fulfillment of bible prophecy? Because, there are many books in the bible that said this would take place and the generation that witnessed that event would be the generation to witness the second coming of Christ. Now, some people believe revelations was fulfilled 2000 years ago after Christ died. But, the bible said the world would be perfect for a thousand years when Christ comes again and I don't recall any part of history where there was world peace for a thousand years. Nor do I see any evidence of Christ's kingdom descending upon the temple mount. Mockers and scoffers are a sure sign of the times, in fact, Christian mockers and scoffers also reinforces bible prophecy, because it says even the elect (which most people interpret as the church) will be deceived. As far as bible numerology and text dating yadayadayada, I am very skeptical, because when I do math, I usually make a mistake here and there, so when people use bibicical numerology to find secret knowledge in the bible, I am very skeptical and with good reason, every number theory ever "discovered" has been debunked in one form or another. Now, a lunar eclipse that the entire world was able to witness is a pretty awesome thing to happen, I wouldn't put it past God to use it to get our attention, afterall, He created the sun, moon, stars, earth and he knows exactly when every event that will ever happen during the existence of the universe, will happen. I read an amazing commentary on the astrological signs of Christ's birth and for all the things to take place prior to His birth is something that only happens once in a trillion or so years. So, God knows the timing of our solar system and when things will occur, it is definitely well within His abilities to use those rare and spectacular events to warn us, get our attention, before He makes His judgement.

I really don't believe we should second guess the Almighty, He will do what He will do In His time. Nevertheless here are a few more passages for consideration, not particularly related to the lunar eclipse. If I have repeated any other posts my apologies. "First, I want to remind you that in the last days there will come scoffers who will do every wrong they can think of, and laugh at the truth.
