• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Fleeing to Mars not of God

Correct but they are what matters. The rest are made for us. As man goes, so go the rest of life here. We are not just some other animal as science falsely teaches.

No. They sure do not. The planet was made for us. Nothing continues without us. Especially when man takes actions to kill kill kill such as we see more and more in the end times. Giving in to Satan and taking his mark and killing His people will have grievous consequences. Consequences so great that unless He returned it would kill everyone. There is no carte blanche to sin without limit.

Without water, life dies. Without protection from the science and wars and devices of man, life dies. Just like if man let loose (if he was allowed) all 10,000 or whatever number of nuclear weapons that he has, life dies. The sum total actions of man, biological. nuclear, chemical, etc combined with wicked man's rebellion against God and giving over to the powers of hell would result in the death of life on earth if not for God stepping in.

It is all about sin. The wars, the science that kills, the plagues, the death etc. That is the name of the game. If you miss that you miss the forest for the trees. You do not need to mention the elephant in the room for it to be there.

It is the method of rejecting God and the subsequent descent into death and hell and extinction that results. Part of that we know about. The great death science could cause, and womd. Other parts we do not know about yet, such as what could poison the oceans and burn the grass and trees in all the planet.

Yes we know there are things that are not revealed to the public right away. No news there.
Sounds like it is nuclear. Or similar.
Yes they don`t want to talk about sin when sin is the problem. Now we have scientists trying to find eternal life. All this talk about life prolonging and how they are on to the key to eternal life and then those who talk about how robotics and genetics would do it. Maybe the mark of the beast have something to do with promising eternal life? That would make people flock for sure.

I have thought about that. It is interesting. I think it is firmaments. Or some sort of interdimensional layer
That covers what? The inner planets? Every thing to the Kuiper Belt? The galaxy?

“If there’s something terrible that happens on Earth, either made by humans or natural, we want to have, like, life insurance for life as a whole,” Musk said in 2020. He wants to turn the planet into a self-sustaining colony, and he reportedly told SpaceX staffers last year he envisions one million people living on Mars by the 2040s.

The bible tells us Jesus is returning to earth to rule. There is no escape. Wasting trillions trying to avoid the fate of man on earth is in my opinion a waste and not of God at all.

Thoughts?
Instead of wasting money going to Mars, we should be focusing those resources cleaning up the world we live on.

There’s no reason to think cutting funds for space exploration would mean those resources would go to cleaning up the planet.
