    no, it doesn't make sense, but you have to understand that some people need doctrine, need rules, and need to think that their petty little rituals somehow make a difference. it's superstition, that's all, by another name.
    take the vowels out of the written name, and Big God will be happy. of course this is absurd. about as absurd as getting upset and fidgety after seeing a black cat about to cross my path ahead in the road. unreasonable, but habit and superstition.

    the fact that it makes people happy doesn't make it less absurd and more reasonable.
    you must agree that it's pretty much the same as the black cat thing; doesn't REALLY matter, but people like to entertain superstitious ideas.

    Well its obvious you didn't read the my other post and just butted into this convo. It is also obvious that, like many, you have NO clue about prophecy of the Bible.

    But anyway, you are right the Jews did not have control of the land for "thousands" of years--to be exact. Infact, this time period is picture in "The Valley of the Dry Bones" found in Ez. 37. But what I was stating and what the Bible states that once the Jews reclaim the land they will never be kicked out again.

    Agreeing with people seems to be bad luck for me.

    Hmm. It means that once you know God you will always know God. Like buddha said "You achieve nirvana, there is no going back."

    Yeah you can say that..... However, understand that God did not bring the jews back to Israel and make them an immovable rock for nothing. The Jews are back in Israel for a specific reason.

    OK first of all the Jews DID reclaim Israel as was spoken in the Bible. But, it is also said that after they have done this they would become surrounded by enemies and this was the sign that her (Israel) desloation was at hand. These places like Gaza and soon the West Bank are just futher proving the bible, not dis-proving it as many of you are trying to claim. This "becoming surrounded by enemies" is happening right now, and will be over soon. Another point on this subject is that Israel's destruction will come before the generation that saw her become a nation has passed away. This means that Israel will be destoryed in AT LEAST 10-20 more years, but it will probaby come in the next 7. Also if you know anything about the world's religons you would understand that Christiany, Jews, and Muslims all are based off the same God. Allah is the same God that both Christians and Jews claim to be under. If you read the other Holy books of this world other than the Bible, such as the Quran, you would see that they have THE SAME propchies for the future and that we are now entering into a very very very dark period in human history. But back to what this thread was about. Being a christian does not mean "not enjoying life". You Soaring Eagel might think that you must sin to have a good time and enjoy life, and for you that is probably true. But, even if it is all wrong and when we die nothing what so ever happens, you won't remeber you so called "good times" and we won't remeber are loyal life styles. But, if you are wrong than you will burn in eternal hell fire and we will be spared. So, I suggest you try to mature yourself before you claim Christanity is a "dead end". I would also like to see you explain how "living it up" is NOT a "dead end" if there is nothing after death. OH yeah and no one comes to belive in Christ because they fear hell. The people who CLAIM to be Christian because they want to be spared from the fires of hell will end up in them also.

    Great post Jerry! However, the Bible clearly states that Israel will not be destroyed but protected by the hand of God.

    geez even the 2 of u who can never make asingle post without reffering to the bibble cant even agree what the buble says
    if you ever spoke from your hesrts instead of mindlessly quoting a book, more people would concider what your saying...as it is most of us dont pay you any attention anymore, cause theres just no talking to you without the constant assault of mindless quotes
    i made a thread in philosophy/religion chsallenging you to discuss god without using the assault of quotes (called experiment) & not 1 of you even tried
    does god lose all meanning without the blah blah blah of nonnsencicle bible babble?

    Sorry JesusDiedforyou but the Bible Clealry states that Isreal will be destoryed in the End of Days. I am looking the the exact passage right now but am having trouble finding it. But I know that percise words of the passage. (refering to Israel) "When you see that you are surrouned by enemies know that your desolation is at hand." Now there are many good people in Israel and they will be ones that survive on the mountians, but Israel will be destoryed, if not why would God make a new Israel after the Great Tribulation has ended?

    the bible has a nice little contradiction in it for every single thing it says
    in fact it not only says jesus is the son of god, but also says hes the son of man
    no wonder christians pick & choose which passages to beleive & which to reject

    Soaring Eagel you are fool. You aruge with us constantly about the Bible and yet I know from the way you talk about it that you have not read it. Please go read the book and then I bet you will understand what we are talking about. You telling us that the Bible is bullshit when you have never read it is like someone telling people how good a movie was that they never saw. You have no frame of reference and don't even know what you are talking about. You are afraid to believe because you know that you are un-holy, and when clear signs of the End come to pass in the next few years you will still denie God. You like to think that we humans are God-like , and I bet you believe we came from monkeys to. By the way, for anyone who reads the news they just decoded chimps DNA code and have discovered that why humans DNA is very very similar the differences that are in the codes are to great for us to be related. You fail to see the humans are special and different from all other animals on this plant, not in a God-like sense, but in the fact that we have MORALS, we see certian things as evil and certian things as good. We have conflict of mind. We are very very different. If evolution worked the way it said to then why would we have mentaly evolved first, even tho we are one of the youngest species on this planet?

    On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves. Zech. 12: 3,4

    The only babble I hear is from you. Your posts are vague with no detail. You are a big fan of one liners. Your beliefs are based on nothing but your own interpretation of the world. Fact is, all people make errors and when you trust in just yourself boy your in for a long ride leading no where. It seems, even if truth hit you in the face, you would always end up crying wolf.

    OK here it is. Luke 21:20 "The Destruction of Jerusalem"
    "When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that it's desolation is near."

    Now Desolation means TOTALY destoryed. if Jerusalem is to be totaly destoryed, I don't understand how you can say that Israel will not be judged also.

    Much of the city in the time of the end will be destroyed, yet the Bible states that a remnant of the people will be spared by God's intervention. This event is not the Russian invasion, but happens seven years later at the end of the Great Tribulation.

    Were not hiding from anything, were just waiting to see if you have the ability to phrase a coherent question yourself. Or, is it necessary for someone else to ask the question for you? Please ask the question, were waiting.

    2 Chronicles 15
    David did not murder 200 men, he was at war with them and those soldiers would of kill David and all the Jews of that time if they could have. The forskins were but the spoils of war, which got David his bride. And your question is?
