Scandalous!  Are you serious?  It seems like everytime I turn past a religious channel on the radio or TV, they're talking end times half of the time.

Maybe w/all that is happening there is more interest in it but yes, we know Christians (or people that believe they are) that just don't seem interested in that subject or are unaware of it....we know some that have even kind of brushed it off as not reality.  Seems like more people are becoming interested in end times stuff though.  A week or so ago the DJIA was at 7666.66 or something and the 2 anchors on CNBC mentioned it.

Actually Nineveh repented...For a while but went back to their old ways


Jonah
When the news reached the king of Nineveh, he rose from his throne, took off his royal robes, covered himself with sackcloth and sat down in the dust. Then he issued a proclamation in Nineveh:
      "By the decree of the king and his nobles:
       Do not let any man or beast, herd or flock, taste anything; do not let them eat or drink. 8 But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth. Let everyone call urgently on God. Let them give up their evil ways and their violence. Who knows? God may yet relent and with compassion turn from his fierce anger so that we will not perish."

When God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways, he had compassion and did not bring upon them the destruction he had threatened.





Maybe it seems like they are obsessed w/gays and not w/end time stuff because some Christians aren't even aware of end time stuff.  Also, the gay controversy has many more participants on both sides than people talking about the 2nd coming of Christ imo.

I'm much more interested in end-time stuff than gayness.

Do you think it belongs on the politics board? A thread about the welfare system I started earlier got moved because Hugo is black, yet this one stays. Wtf is that ???

Sure it does, read the highlighted part. It makes sense. Unfortunately many so called Christians are falling into the trap, not asking questions. Leading ultimately to our demise.

...

Just to make things clear, I don't think we are anywhere near apocalypse or anything like that. Don't fall for the hysteria.

Yea this topic deserves to be on the pol board.

no, believe it or not I'm just trying to understand Christians politically.  There are so many Christians in this country and I totally don't get them one bit.  ... Start a topic about something like Real ID/with biometic chips or the thread about legislation that is leading to a global consolidation of control of our food or just the thread about what monsato is doing and they really don't give a rat's ass.  ...
