Fair use for discussion and educational purposes We have had discussions in the past about the "alien" story being the one that is used to give a reason or excuse for the sudden disappearance of millions of people- The enemy is laying the groundwork for the coming deception...it's getting closer by the minutes y'all!!! Cant access the article without a subscription 🙁 That's not cool of them...it was linked and available on the front page of bing this morning. I will see if I can get it to link another way- thank you Yohanan for letting me know Thanks David! I was looking at how to edit my post and couldn't find the tab to edit? :wacko: This is why I strongly believe the unsaved will see us flying out of here at the time of the rapture. The changing of the body will be in a blink of an eye but the going up process I think will be slower for all to see. Those that refused to believe in the Truth will believe the alien lie and those who were sitting on the fence will, hopefully, finally become believers (trib saints) and realize that the rapture event was real and just occurred. See it or not Geri7, aliens are only one of their fall back positions, rather than acknowledge a supernatural evacuation which speaks of a judgement by God! The world is so entrenched in their self deception and rebellion against humbling themselves before their creator God, that even the judgments of God during the tribulation period will not dissuade them! Filled with their own conceits, they would forgo Heaven and settle for Hell! I've never understood this level of deception, or the rationale to justify it! Otherwise seemingly intelligent people, in open rebellion to God. Again, I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but thankfully I know enough not P.O. God! And I can't even take credit for that! TR Sadly, given the attitudes of the world already displayed, I would venture a guess. My guess is that even in Hell, people will continue to curse God eternally, rather than to kick themselves in their behind for the stupid choices they have made. :wacko: TR This is where 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 comes in ... the point of no return ... Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. —————- The Lord taught me a big lesson when I was working a temporary job at Warner-Lambert in 1999, before my big move to Vermont. The company forced us all to attend an off-site meeting at the local Marriott hotel and separated us into small groups. The group I was in had 2 female speakers who were promoting the gay/lesbian agenda in the workplace. During break time I happened to walk by and over heard the 2 women talking to someone else ... they said they were from Hollywood and used to be makeup artists for Clint Eastwood and were hired to promote the gay agenda in the Fortune 500 workplaces across the country. During the sessions after showing a film on how to treat and befriend a gay person .... when it came time for questions and answers ... I raised my hand and I know they saw my hand but they refused to call on me. Perhaps the demons told them not to? They treated me like I was invisible. Then when we were in a much smaller group of 5 people ... we were in this circle and they handed out some worldly philosophy writings 2 pages. They wanted us to read it and then explain what we got out of it. To me I read the words and nothing, I mean nothing made sense to me. I have a college degree so I’m not that dumb. I was amazed though when every one else in my group went on and on of what they got out of the pamphlet. Then when it came time for me to say what I learned ... I said I’m sorry I have read this pamphlet 3 times and its only a bunch of words ... I can’t decipher what it all means. I was embarrassed at first but then it dawned on me ... this is what its like for an unsaved person who is spiritually blinded and can’t understand the things of God or His Word ... unless they have the Holy Spirit guiding or dwelling inside of them to help them out. Jesus says ... if you seek me with your whole heart you will find me so I believe when unsaved is truly seeking the Lord, that is when the Holy Spirit will guide that person to understanding the Bible and/or the sermon message. I would agree TR
No room for regrets, or so it seems to me.
