I never stop to read the National Enquirer....either!

You must have a lot of time on your hands!!

Have no problem believing this for the whole world, not just the USA. The whole world is changing, we as SDAs should be well aware of what's coming. There's just to much paranoia going around these days.

OTOH we could just party/hardy until the Lord closes the door on the ark.

"But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be."Matthew 24:37 NKJV

Could you show me where I said that????? I think you knew exactly what I meant about the paranoia.

God will not use fear to bring people to know His character. So people are completely free to believe or not believe.

God will not allow scientific evidence to be so overwhelming people can not help but be forced to believe and fear God and serve him from fear.

Only love, God only accepts worship freely offered, prompted by love. and love allows us to more and more comprehend how deeply flawed we are by nature, and how merciful and good God is to us as we are.

He came to bless, to heal, to save perfectly sinful human beings.

He doesn't remove our nature from us, but adds His nature to us.

Here's a prayer for those that are so afraid of these last days:

Prayer for Times of Fear

Almighty God, the Refuge of all that are distressed, grant unto us that, in all trouble of this our mortal life, we may flee to the knowledge of Thy lovingkindness and tender mercy; that so, sheltering ourselves therein, the storms of life may pass over us, and not shake the peace of God that is within us. Whatsoever this life may bring us, grant that it may never take from us the full faith that Thou art our Father. Grant us Thy light, that we may have life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

[phkrause]

And just in case its not "Fear" but "Worry"

To Be Free From Worry

Father, I'm praying that (name one or more) and others in my circle of family and friends will be free from worry...

Help them not worry when things don't go the way they expect. Jesus said we're not to fret, not to worry, not to let our hearts be troubled or afraid. He said we're to trust in You— and also in Him. May it be so in their lives and ministry, no matter how impossible things seem. (John 14:1, 27b)

Keep them from worrying about tomorrow, for each day has enough trouble of its own. When such trouble comes, help them to cast all their anxiety on Christ because He cares for them. (Matthew 6:34; 1 Peter 5:7)

Help them not to be anxious about anything but to pray about everything with thanksgiving—for when they do, You'll give them Your peace that surpasses their understanding, and such peace guards their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6–7)

Keep their minds steadfast in trusting You, and give them Your perfect peace. May they turn to the Lord of Peace who will give them peace at all times, in every way. (Isaiah 26:3; 2 Thessalonians 3:16)

Help them leave every worry at Your feet where it belongs.

In Jesus' name, amen.

"And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose."Romans 8:28 NASB

"And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns."

Philippians 1:6 NLT

If that be true, how would you define this, debby?

"...knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin."Romans 6:6 NKJV

"Humans can reproduce only human life, but the Holy Spirit gives birth to spiritual life. So don’t be surprised when I say, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows wherever it wants. Just as you can hear the wind but can’t tell where it comes from or where it is going, so you can’t explain how people are born of the Spirit.”"John 3:6-8 NLT

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.2 Corinthians 5:16 NKJV

"For neither is circumcision [now] of any importance, nor uncircumcision, but [only] a new creation [the result of a new birth and a new nature in Christ Jesus, the Messiah]."Galatians 6:15 AMP brackets their's LHC

I didn't mean to inundate you with unneeded texts but I kept coming up with texts that made the gate very narrow indeed, not allowing any mistakes without showing it obvious where the information came from.

God cares!
