Bible Note: Charis your absolutely right and that is exactly the reason I tried to get this stopped before it started. Now I find myself a major contributor to this debacle. I can’t resist a revelation discussion, I try but I can’t. Pray for me. Everyone is worried about the Christians that are going to slip away, it’s going to happen look at 2 Thess. 2:3 “a great falling away”. Everyone is taking about a big revival, that revival isn’t to the church it is to the Jew. The church is going to experience a great falling away. As I have said at the beginning too much is not known, we know some things have been intentionally kept from us Rev 10:4. All of this is just speculation and conjecture and serves no real us other than to feed our curiosity. The time spend on this already could have been better spent praying for our nation, our government, our families. Your also right this hasn’t blown up because no real dissenter has added his two cents. But there is enough ammunition now in this thread so that it could take weeks to calm down should it blow. Besides I just about said everything I wanted to about Revelation :-). In any case we already decided it was Nolan’s fault ;-) |
