The Evil, It Is Nigh

Rule 34: Proven

(Mostly this is an excuse to use the word "nigh", which just doesn't get enough play.)

So, how nigh is the evil? This nigh!

Keep in mind, I'm not a doubting Thomas. True, every time there's an earthquake somewhere or every time the nutbag in Iran says how he wants to nuke Israel, I'm usually the one who tries to hold it together saying that these things have been giong on for years and could go on for years still. I'm not trying to be the rain on the parade, it's just that I used to be like the people who think that everytime there's a hiccup in the M/E, the Rapture's happening like this weekend. And I had to try to put things in perspective becasue I would get myself all revved up that the Rapture's very soon, only to become depressed when it wasn't. So I do tend to keep things in perspective.

Um, has Achmedinejad ever threatened to nuke Israel? Anyway,

Having said all that (sorry somtimes I am too long-winded), lately I can just feel the evil all around us and the increase of such attitudes everywhere.

What attitudes? Nuking Israel? Believing earthquakes represent something other than plate tectonics? I'm confused.

I sitll think we have some time left here Earth before the Rapture, but...it is just blowing me away that the evil just seems to be rampant. So many of my Christian friends all seem to be under spiritual attacks which seem to grow in intensity.

spiritual attacks: sickness, doubt, sadness, lost socks, red lights, financial difficulties (in a massive recession, no less), McDonalds running out of chicken nuggets. So, any tiny little thing that inconveniences or annoys you throughout your day is SATAN attacking you. Apparently, SATAN has nothing better to do than make you 30 seconds late for work. Most of the time, it seems more like the work of Phil, Prince of Insufficient Light.

What's going on here? This is getting to the point where even I am starting to think that something is looming in the near future.
Yes, more lost socks.
Friend, there definitely IS "something looming."

DHIMMITUDE!

As I understand that word, it's submission to Muslim rule.

Just sayin'.

Yes, because allowing a community center to be built within any distance of Ground Zero is capitulating to the Caliphate. Community centers in Saudi Arabia are too damn close!

I definitly see where you're coming from. The world keeps going down hill fast. I'm seeing the same thing with friends ... it seems like suddenly so, so many people I know are sick or have sick family members or have just lost someone very close to them, or have had violent crimes happen very close to them, or even violent crimes affecting family members (a friend just lost a cousin to a murder during a robbery). It's crazy.

You know, it's weird. When I was a kid, none of my friends were sick or having to cope with death. As I get older, it seems like everyone I know is getting sicker and their parents are dying . . . I wonder why that is?

Daveyboy, I was raised in a Christian home and taught the Bible from a young age. My parents would talk about prophecy and the "end times" but I didn't take much of it to heart.
I went on and "did my own thing". I was very rebellious and wanted to experience everything the world had to offer. Around 1981, I picked up Hal Lindsey's book "The Late Great Planet Earth" and read it. It made me recall all the things my parents had told me. That, along with some other occurences brought me to the Lord in 1982. I've been looking for the Lord's return "Daily" since that time. I'm not depressed that the rapture hasn't yet occurred. Everything is in God's timing, not ours !!
I will soon be 74 years old and have seen a lot in my time. I have never seen things this bad, but I believe they will become worse. Satan knows his time is limited and he's desperately angry. It is very possible that as Christians we will see physical persecution, but not to worry. Jesus said, "In this world you'll have trouble, but never mind, I've overcome the world". (paraphrased).
I sincerely believe we are very close to His return and that He will save us from the wrath to come.

Keep the Faith !!
Look up, Our Redemption Draweth Nigh !!!

So, you've been waiting for the rapture to happen at any moment for the last 28 years? That doesn't seem odd to you? Also, why is SATAN so damn stupid? He knows his time is nigh, but he keeps fighting anyway. In fact, he knew the rebellion was doomed from the start, but proceeded to rebel despite this knowledge. (Not actually in the Bible.) You want me to be scared of this nitwit? My dog is smarter than that and he's completely mystified every time I go out the back door and come back in through the front.

IMHO, spiritual darkness and strong dellusion seem to be increasing by the second.

I imagine "dellusion" is the belief that dude, you're getting a Dell!

The strong dellusion is almost surreal...the vast majority of leaders in the USA seem to have lost their minds completly, and it appears as if at least half of the US population has joined them

The more than half that voted for Obama, I guess.

It's amost as if the hounds of hell have been given alot more leash...can you image when they are unleashed completely? Wow!

Yeah, hellhounds ripping through a preschool sounds awesome!

It's an awesome time to be alive, and what an opportunity we all have to live for Jesus in an increasingly hostile (Christaphobic) enviroment. Keep your eye on the prize!

It's awful to live in such a hostile (Christaphobic) enviroment (sic). I mean, you can't even buy a Bible. And forget wearing clothing commonly associated with Christians, that result in violence. Christian community centers result in national explosions of bigotry. It truly is a sad time to be such a persecuted minority.

There was some comment on this in the adoption communities I belong to. People are facing a lot more resistance to bringing children home from overseas. Prayers and fasting have yielded results though, at least one boy was released by a judge to come home. Not to worry, Jesus triumphed long ago.

You think that might have something to do with the recent accusations of kidnapping Hatian (non)orphans or the child sent back to Russia with a note pinned to his (or her, I can't remember) shirt? Nah, it's SATAN. Or the dellusion.

Oh yeah when you said we can't see our enemy, it made the hair on my neck stand up. I feel so often that there is positively some kind of force out there that is constantly thwarting my efforts in life.

It's called stupidity.

I have been blessed with a good sense of awareness and can usually tell when there's something just not "right".

A trait you share with most schizophrenics.

I have had this feeling of a force working against me. Don't know why I am so important to Satan-not like I'm some kind of precher man or something, b ut still getting attacked just the same.

Oh, it's almost like you're involved in some epic battle against evil instead of a sad little wage slave like the rest of us. How special.

Oh, fundys, putting the fun in paranoid delusions.

  2. Does a post from DM constitute an attack from the Dark Forces?

  5. Regarding the nuke thing, he did make a comment about wiping Israel off the map, although exactly what he meant is not completely clear. There have also been some other fairly bellicose comments but as far as I'm aware never an explicit threat to nuke Israel. Since Iran likes to claim it is developing nuclear technology for peaceful purposes it would have a bit of a problem if they also made public statements about nuking Israel.

  6. OK, so I pulled my comment from DM out of my spam file to compare; he posts a lot of repeats, but not the whole thing cut-n-pasted as a block. I suspect he has a file of blurbs, and cuts in bits of this and bits of that.

    What a worthless jack-off. He obviously doesn't have better things to do (in his mind).

    I haven't played with it much, but I'm not seeing a way to block just him - he's why I moderate.

  7. ...

    i just don't understand his POINT! if he wanted to "save" people, he'd being doing something about how God is love and etc; all he does is annoy. it makes no sense.

    then again, to my knowledge, i'm the only regular commentor that he hasn't directly replied to and/or threatened. maybe i'm missing something.

    DM - *WHY* do you ignore me? is it really because i threatened to call the FBI if you continued threatening PF? because it *is* the FBIs jurisdiction :D

Comments are for you guys, not for me. Say what you will. Don't feel compelled to stay on topic, I enjoy it when comments enter Tangentville or veer off into Non Sequitur Town. Just keep it polite, okay?

I am attempting to use blogger's new comment spam feature. If you don't immediately see your comment, it is being held in spam, I will get it out next time I check the filter. Unless you are Dennis Markuze, in which case you're never seeing your comment.
