The problem with postmodernism and the Biblical world view of a woman is the contrast which seems so primitive.

A woman gives glory to God by fulfilling her role as a woman, and so does a man.

We are all the same in Gods eyes..

This is off-topic, but I have absolutely no problem being submissive to my husband, in obedience to God, and he being the spiritual leader of our home, as God ordained. That doesn't mean, under any circumstances, that I'm a push over or that my husband is abusive toward me. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Wow. Back to virginity and women's roles by page 4? It can't be the end of the world, this topic hasn't been repeated enough times yet.

The Bible says a womans body belongs to her husband.

It ALSO says, a mans body belongs to his wife.

The equality of our sexes is written in scripture, tho our functions within our relationships differ..

Some say its sexist, I say thats the point.

This topic is off-topic of the OP. We should stick with the original subject of the thread. So, let's get back on topic.

What are "functions within our relationships"?

And what has this to do with asteroids?

Perfect example of when to listen to a woman!

God clearly gave you guys the brains, while leaving us to the brawn..

**coughs**

Now, about those meteors..

I was watching something on the news and now the Scientists are saying that meteor explosions have increased dramatically since 2001.

Also that any day now we could get the "big one".

I think that since its an act of God, only he could know.

thoughts?

I don't see how getting a bigger meteor has any connection to an increase in frequency of smaller impacts. This would imply that there is some sort of buildup before space lets loose on us and that just doesn't make sense with the nature of space rocks.

Unless what they were saying is that a large rock was in an orbit that was bringing it closer and closer and the increased impacts were from pieces breaking off as it passed by, but I have seen no indications that it's the case.

Jesus did liken the last days to birth pangs.

As a women goes into labor, the pains become more frequent and intense the closer to the birth she gets..

To be honest, I'm not that concerned about the end of the world. I'm more concerned for the eternal fate of my unsaved loved ones, friends and neighbors. I'm more concerned for the fate of the lost than I am of Jesus calling me home or of the Rapture. I am ready for His return BUT there is still SO much more work in the harvest to be done before He returns!! There are still SO many more people I want to lead to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ before He returns.

Er, I think you should always listen to a woman when she addresses you, actually.

Look to the Scriptures for that answer.

Absolutely nothing. So, we are now back on topic.

Yes, but that is because giving birth is a process that gets more intense until the baby is born.

Meteors are not lined up ready to impact us, increasing in size as they go. They are (generally, excepting the kind of situation I posted above) randomly scattered rocks in space that occasionally get sucked in by our gravity.

Joykins · Apr 23, 2014

as to asteroids, comets, meteors...try creating a solar system yourself and see how easy it is for your planet to be smashed (I had a lot of planets get smashed)! See if you can create a planet that sustains life! It's not EASY!

Thanks Joykins. This is probably going to waste away much of my time

I guess when it comes to meteors i see it like this.

God sends them to earth. (meaning they are floating around on a predestined course with earth, ordained so by God himself)

Its not a "random" event, or at least thats what I believe.

God does claim direct control over weather phenomenon, why not heavenly objects that pelt and destroy earth?

Job 37:5 "God thunders with His voice wondrously, Doing great things which we cannot comprehend.
Job 37:6 "For to the snow He says, 'Fall on the earth,' And to the downpour and the rain, 'Be strong.'
Job 37:7 "He seals the hand of every man, That all men may know His work.
Job 37:8 "Then the beast goes into its lair And remains in its den.
Job 37:9 "Out of the south comes the storm, And out of the north the cold.
Job 37:10 "From the breath of God ice is made, And the expanse of the waters is frozen.
Job 37:11 "Also with moisture He loads the thick cloud; He disperses the cloud of His lightning.
Job 37:12 "It changes direction, turning around by His guidance, That it may do whatever He commands it On the face of the inhabited earth.
Job 37:13 "Whether for correction, or for His world, Or for lovingkindness, He causes it to happen.

People take rainbows for granted just as they do meteors.

Did you know that when you see a rainbow, its a direct sign from God himself?

Gen 9:12 God said, "This is the sign of the covenant which I am making between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all successive generations;
Gen 9:13 I set My bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a sign of a covenant between Me and the earth.
Gen 9:14 "It shall come about, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow will be seen in the cloud,
Gen 9:15 and I will remember My covenant, which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and never again shall the water become a flood to destroy all flesh.

Oh, wow! See, I always thought that it was a combination of reflection and refraction of light. Thank you for rooting out the primitive superstition in my thinking!

LOL.

I guess the thunder really is God tossing around the furniture in heaven.

(That's what I was told as a child.)
