Tammie, I agree the thought of eating bugs and lab garbage 🥴. NO WAY! Kolleen, Great idea with storing protein powders and dried / freeze dried foods! I’m a prepper but I noticed on some forum boards some believers are not preparing and think its a sin to do so.🙄😏 Claiming we aren’t trusting in God for our daily supply. I feel as long as we have the ability to stock up, we should and like Yohanan said it wont go to waste … some left behind folks will be able to use them! I believe the Lord will direct them to our homes for spiritual and earthly food! some believers are not preparing and think its a sin to do so claiming we aren’t trusting in God for our daily supply. Makes me wonder why they bother going to work or have a savings account. How is that any different? :good: Excellent point! Yep, those critics who refuse to prep thinking its “sinful” will be missing a blessing/rewards in helping out the left behind … perhaps even their own unsaved blood relatives or neighbor(s) will stop over but find their place … “useless”. How tragic is that! They are not thinking logically. Now if you can’t prep that is a different story but its wrong to call it “sinful” and not trusting in God for your daily needs for those who can. Was that a remake — I might have to watch that tonight :mdrmdr: Kolleen, I have been doing that for years now — so as the time is short and the expense is not something you may be able to do — simple things that are convenient from stores right now are beans and rice — Recommend to get as much of that as you think you may need for 6 months. If not for you and your place survives the first wave of horsemen - for those left. You can actually buy beans from amazon. They are a good protein source. Dried garbanzo beans can be soaked to rehydrate them and then made into humus. You can also get canned beans, black beans, kidney beans, northern beans, navy beans are all common and currently available. I love rice and have several varieties, wild, yellow, basmati, jasmine, and white are easy and common. Other rices such as red rice and black rice are awesome in taste but difficult to find sometimes. Reconstituting these times can be done with water or broth. I buy dry bone broth for the protein. Protein powders are readily available but a bit pricey. I know some folks that buy extra ensure shakes and so forth. My two cents….. 😉 Geri — shame on them for saying it’s a sin to prepare for the worse and pray for the best…. What do they do with a verse like Ecclesiastes 11:1-2 “Cast your bread upon the waters, for you will find it after many days. Give a portion to seven, or even to eight, for you know not what disaster may happen on earth.“ Good grief — Noah prepared for 100 years. He put away all sorts of food stuff as God directed him. The flood was coming as God said — well guess what — the rapture is coming as God said….. We do not know what we may see live through, so we are strong, wise, prepared, and ready for whatever may come. God did not give us the spirit of fear but of sound mind — we are waiting for our blessed hope and we are to be wise and busy in that waiting… He is coming back for us and it is very soon! Maybe not as soon as what our vision is as we see dimly but then face to face. :yahoo: :flyup: Again — Noah was the ultimate prepper dude. I have followed his lead and when that trumpet sounds, I am out of here before the wrath of God is poured out onto this sinful world. :wacko:
I remember seeing that Solent Green movie in the mid 1970’s and here its based on the future for year 2022. 😳 Back then year 2000 seemed sooo far away and here we are 2023 ….
