He acted quickly and without fail. I have faith that God will help us all in our hour of need.<br /><br />That said, we can't just through our hands in the air and dump it all in God's lap. I don't know what sort of fire we may be in for, but it's sure making my imagination run wild.Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05301635466561126804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291036096319705346.post-90014015500578097322009-05-17T09:29:00.000-04:002009-05-17T09:29:00.000-04:00Interesting post, Margaret.

God has to wait until...In response to your post ... God has to wait until everything He said in the bible comes to pass (mainly, that the Gospel will reach everyone). He wants everyone to be saved, so He has made enough time so that everyone will get to hear about Jesus and have a chance to give their life to Him. Once this has happened, then the end will come.<br /><br />It might be global warming. Obviously that's happening so it might factor in. But it's not really clear. The only reference in the bible is to a fire of some sort ...<br /><br />"But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up." - 2 Peter 3:10<br /><br />The Bible speaks of a whole new age — the age to come — and a whole new creation. The eternal future of God's people is not an escape from this world it’s the perfect renewal of this world. Just as our bodies die and are raised, so this whole creation will be burned up and a new one created. As John writes in Revelations ...<br /><br />"Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, 'Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God.'" - Revelation 21:1-3<br /><br />In this age to come - the "new earth" - death will be no more. In this new age Jesus will rule with justice over all the creation, weeping and crying will be no more, kids won’t die and elderly people will have health eternally. No one will be hungry, no one will be disabled physically, no one will emotionally limp through life, no one will be robbed. It will be a place of perfect peace. Every desire will be satisfied in the glory and joy of the physical presence of our risen Lord Jesus. Forever. There is no better gospel, no better hope, no better news than that.Doug Cloudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06808705631686955664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291036096319705346.post-34567292806280909082009-05-16T10:15:00.000-04:002009-05-16T10:15:00.000-04:00I know that I would not be where I am today if it ...I know that I would not be where I am today if it wasn't for God, and for the people He picked to be my parents. As He says...<br /><br />"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, But fools despise wisdom and instruction. My son, hear the instruction of your father, And do not forsake the law of your mother; For they will be a graceful ornament on your head, And chains about your neck." - Proverbs 1:7-9<br /><br />It took me a while to "Hear, my son, your father’s instruction, and do not forsake your mother’s teaching," but thanks to the Lord I came to understand and listen to you and Dad. You always had my best interests at heart, and you actually knew what you were talking about (lol).<br /><br />I am thankful that you are both my parents.Doug Cloudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06808705631686955664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291036096319705346.post-68655565105990133972009-05-16T03:12:00.000-04:002009-05-16T03:12:00.000-04:00I dont know what is going to happen Margaret but n...I dont know what is going to happen Margaret but nothing would surprise me.

I CERTAINLY DO NOT WANT TO BE ON THIS EARTH WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT REMOVES HIMSELF...IT WILL BE SUCH EVIL, IT WILL MAKE THE DAYS WE ARE LIVING IN NOW LOOK PURE. OH I CRY AND PRAY FOR THOSE WHO REJECT JESUS THAT THEY WILL REPENT AND COME TO JESUS BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE. PEOPLE LAUGH AT JESUS, THEY MAKE FUN OF HIM, THEY THINK HE IS A FAIRY TALE....THEY SAY THEY PLAN TO GO TO HELL AND PARTY.....OH HOW I PRAY FOR THEM...BUT GOD HONORS OUR FREE WILL TO CHOOSE HIM OR REJECT HIM.<br />I LOVE YOUR BLOG MARGARET.
