I'm confused...

A friend of mine posted this in the comments section two posts down:

I do believe Jesus will return. I just don't believe in the Rapture, the Tribulation, or the Antichrist. I'm an amillenial preterist, which, incidentally, has a long history in the church. It's just that virtually everyone in the modern church believes some version of premillenial dispensationalism so I look like a weirdo. :)

I still believe Jesus' return could be at any minute though. Maybe moreso than dispensationalists, since they believe the tribulation has to happen first.

Nivil, if Jesus returns, and you don't call it the Rapture, what do you call it?

Does not the Bible teach that there will be an Antichrist? Or a Tribulation?

Scriptures please. I am baffled.

My, How Far We've Come...

First, I would like to be the first to say thanks to Rush Limbaugh. Yes, Rush, your plan backfired. Instead of the known entity of Hillary, as undesirable as that would be, we now have the unknown quantity of Obama. Operation Chaos will go down as a failure. Glad I did not participate.

Second, I will remind everyone that voted for "Change" that you will not like the change that is coming. It is going to stink.

Third, in the how far we've come department, the state of MN is very close to electing Al Stinking Franken as a senator. God help us. I cannot imagine having Obama in the White House and Al Stinking Franken as a senator. Run for the hills, people.

Last, our reformation is complete. The citizenry has found a way to vote for themselves large amounts of $$$$ from the treasury, and from this a person can never be weaned. Give a man a fish, and he will want another fish, and more fish, and then all of the fish. He will never work for the fish.

The fall of the empire is well on it's way to completion.

May God have mercy on us.

God Help Us All

We're going to need it.

I cannot believe what I am seeing. God help us.

America, God will judge you. He is doing that now.

This man who you call "The One" will one day bow his knee to the ONLY ONE to whom that title belongs.

America, your days are numbered. We will now no longer be a friend of Israel. We WILL be attacked. A large city will likely be taken out. One of the cities that voted for this man. No, I do not want that to happen, but I am afraid it will.

Jesus is coming. Be ready.

Win One for the Gipper

In regards to the tax increase Obama is planning for businesses, I present this, from Ronaldus Maximus:

“The most dangerous myth is the demagoguery that business can be made to pay a larger share, thus relieving the individual. Politicians preaching this are either deliberately dishonest, or economically illiterate, and either one should scare us. Business doesn’t pay taxes, and who better than business to make this message known? Only people pay taxes, and people pay as consumers every tax that is assessed against a business. Begin with the food and fiber raised in the farm, to the ore drilled in a mine, to the oil and gas from out of the ground, whatever it may be—through the processing, through the manufacturing, on out to the retailer’s license. If the tax cannot be included in the price of the product, no one along that line can stay in business.”

—Ronald Reagan

Obama Says Constitution "Flawed"

Here is the October Surprise:

I'm back...

For the moment, at least.

I have been so very busy latley. Doing what? you ask.

For one, praying. Praying that God will intervene on behalf of our nation.

Praying that God will defeat the forces of darkness.

And, praying that God will see fit to keep Obama as far from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue as possible.

Now, I am not, never have been, never will be a John McCain fan. But considering the alternative, I will gladly cast my vote for McCain/Palin.

Right now, I would take Hillary Clinton over Obama. I would rather have the known quantity of the Hildabeast than the unknow X factor of Obama.

God be merciful.

Here is a note from my cousin, Deb:

"My eyesight is getting worse. As you know, I am already blind in my left eye. I purchased bifocals for my right eye a few months ago and they were perfect. I had great vision. Now, my vision is growing worse and I am trying to get an appointment with the New York State Commission for the Blind and Visually Handicapped. A person has to be 51 years of age to get in to an eye doctor that specializes in legal blindness, etc. I need to see such an eye doctor, and ,hopefully, after talking to the NYS Commission I can get in for free. Otherwise, like I said, you have to be 51 years of age. My current eye doctor is the one who gave me their phone number.

"I would appreciate if you all would pray for me right now. I've always said if I lost anything, I would rather lose my hearing than my eyesight. I have always been a complete 'bookworm'; the thought of not being about to read God's Word, my devotional books, and additional reading (Karen Kingsbury,the Thoenes)is hard. I know God does all things well; there is a 'purpose for everything under the sun'. I don't want to be insensitive to what He is doing in my life; I just want to be clay in His hands so I can be completely molded into what He wants me to be. He has been so, so good to me. He has given me a wonderful family, a wonderful husband and son, and He has been there every single step of the way. I have no complaints!! He's a wonderful Saviour to me! :) There's not much I can do for Him, but one thing I know . . . He has ALL of me! Thank you for your prayers! You all are tops, in my book!"
