Give me a break  ;D Talk about second-day quarterbacking. :)

Ha ha!  ROTFL :D ;D, this is so funny Darren, just how clueless can they get eh? Thanks for your post.

Fiddling with codes is a waste of their time, but it's all part of God's plan, boy the "wise" are really made to look foolish at times  ;D.

LOL! Well you all are right who call it foolish! And indeed it is a huge waste of time and a distraction from actual study. Great scriptures too! Especially this one:


--- Quote ---2 Tim 4 : 3 For the time is coming when people will not tolerate, endure sound and wholesome instruction (Ray estimates that only about 200 TWO HUNDRED people may be following his teachings!) but, having ears ITCHING FOR SOMETHING PLEASING AND GRATIFYING ( Bible Codes, The Davinci Code, over 3000 different Christian denominations! ) they will GATHER TO THEMSELVES, one teacher after another to a considerable number (TBN !) chosen to satisfy their own liking (need for entertainment) and to foster the ERRORS THEY HOLD.  4. And will turn aside from hearing the truth and wander off into myths and MAN-MADE FICTIONS. 5. AS FOR YOU, be calm and cool and stead, accept and suffer unflinchingly every hardship......

This is great! I love your interpretations and comments thrown in there!

Deborah-Leigh:
Thanks Matt.

I think it fits like never before!.... :D We are in unprecedented times 8)...but I guess ALL times have been unprecedentedly more wicked. ;D

Peace to you

Arcturus :)

YellowStone:
You pose a really good question Sister Arcturus :)

Is the now "time" really more wicked than ever before, or is it our perception or rather reality changing due to our spiritual eyes. Are we now seeing and paying greater attention to the world around us? Not purposely, rather on the contrary, for now we see the "world" for what it truly is.

Seems to me the world was pretty wicked in the time of Sodom and Gomorrah   :)

However, I will say that I too see the world slipping away in regards to moraility, ethics, family values.

I would like to ask you about South Africa, for I am clueless. How would you rate society in general. Are you guys being kind of led down a slippery slope but being told differently? What about the quality of TV shows, music ect.

I am frankly disgusted with some of the commercials on public TV. For example, a father walks in and say's to his teenage son and daughter: "Good news, we now have FREE Text Msg on our cell phone plan to anyone, regardless of the network!! " :)

Only to be greeted with disinterest and a comment: "So what, we have that any way."

Instead of scolding the child for being disrespectful, all "we see" is him saying: "Well at least your mom doesn't have to work a second job to pay for it"

I would not use their phone service if it were given to me, and they expect me to PAY for their product. No way!!   ;D

But this is the type of social degradation I am talking about here in the US. What's it like in SA?

Perhaps, like I mentioned, it was always like this; however, now being in the "infomation" age; we see it for what it really is.

I would love to hear your (anyones) thoughts :)

Your brother in Christ,
Darren

We have turned evil into a fine art. Technology makes it possible to dig ones self even deeper into the sin gutter, because we are not consumed with working for survival all the time. We have all the time in the world now. All this free time allows people to invent even more evil.
Young people are being destroyed by it.

The family is dead, thanks to radical feminism and their indoctrination of younger women that goads them into hating men. I want no part of that, and I am not alone either. Look up "marriage strike", and it's growing. Even dating is out of the question.

I am 42, and in that time I have seen things degrade to the point that I dont even recognize this country anymore. I shutter to think what this world will be like in another 20, or even 10 years. In my opinion, we will be most fortunate to have another 2-3 more years left before we destroy what's left of this world / country.

These are perilous times, and it pays to be ready, MHO. Our redeption draweth nigh.
