Thats not history man, i live in Java. Sumatra and Java were divided long be4 the Krakatau eruption. It was a mountain reaching high from the bottom of the sea to the surface, not a mountain on an island. Its still active today.

But referring it to the volcano eruption under the sea may have some points.
The point is - you or I do not know for sure what this verse refers to - we are merely speculating.

God didnt say it either, that the world will be ended by asteroid.

2 Pet 3:10 will happen be4 the Great Judgment.
Rev 20:11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.

2 Peter 3:10 is to happen on the "day of the Lord" which is to come "as a thief in the night". It happens prior... to the "thousand years" of Rev.20.

Jesus said He comes "as a thief" in Rev.16 on the 6th Vial timing. Jesus comes on the 7th Vial, 7th Trumpet. That is when God's consuming fire will burn man's works off this earth per 2 Pet.3:10. It is the main event that will usher all into Christ's Millennial reign with His elect Church.

Jesus said He comes "as a thief" in Rev.16 on the 6th Vial timing. Jesus comes on the 7th Vial,
The 7 Seals will be opened in the final 70th week of Daniel, which is the final WEEK or 7 years of Grief Tribulation (end of civilization).
The Holy Spirit and the church will be removed be4 the 1st seal opening.

Could be a comet. Or it could be something entirely supernatural.

In general I dislike trying to give natural explanations for events in scripture.

In scripture God tends to use or work through natural means or other people to do his will. Supernatural events are very rare. The only supernatural event in the bible that can't be explained by natural causes is the ressurection of Jesus.

Comet or asteroid,it does not matter guys, it will hit the ocean.

Revelation descriptions means its most likely an asteroid.

It will have to very massive though to eclipse the one that hit and partly responsible for wiping out the dinosaurs 365 millions years ago.

People - yes. Natural means? rarely.

Lose your modernistic natural world view and take a more supernatural one. One that lines up with the bible.

Yes our Father has been known to perform some spectacular feats in the past. If He did it before, He will do it again.

He has yet to do it in the two thousand years since the death and ressurrection of Jesus.

However i have seen god work through people and natural things many times.

That does not mean He is not going to do supernatural things again.

He could, i just don't think he is likely to do so as the world is a different place now than in bible times.

In today's age of science and intelligent reasoning who is going to pay that much attention to such an event. Skeptics will look for a natural explanation, science will look for a scientific answer.

When the Holy Spirit has been removed the world will enter the 70th week of Daniel which is the final 7 years of civilization of wars and desolation where God will punish the unbelieving world with the opening of 7 Seals, 7 Trumpets and 7 Vials.
Dan 9:26 The end will come like a flood: War will continue until the end, and desolations have been decreed.

I am happy that you recognize that our Father is able. He is the same God that spoke the heaven and the Earth into existence. He is the same God who flooded the Earth in Noah's day. He is the same God that confused the languages at the Tower of Babel.He is the same God who rained down fire upon Sodom and Gomorrah . He is the same God who parted the Red Sea for Moses. He is the same God who stopped the sun from going down for Joshua. He is the pillar of cloud by day and He is the pillar of fire by night. He is God and He does not change. Yes times change, but our Father does not. What is science but the discovery of how our Father did everything? There is nothing new under the sun.
Ecc. 1:9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.

10 Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.

You should allow the Bible be your plumb line for truth .

Yes, God DID say this world would NOT end by an asteroid! He told you through Apostle Peter (2 Pet.3:10) and His Old Testament prophets exactly... HOW... this world will end.

But people like yourself like to believe your own way instead of staying in God's Word as written, and because of what those like you do, you worry brethren with doomsday Hal Lindsay type theories instead of comforting the brethren with what God's Word tells us about the ending of this world.

There is no such removal of The Holy Spirit. Just to show how TWISTED the false pre-trib rapture doctors you follow are, the existence of God's "two witnesses" in Jerusalem for the tribulation prophesying... for 1260 days... BY THE HOLY SPIRIT... makes your false doctrine to be babelings of kooks.

The Church is not going anywhere before nor during the 70th week of Daniel. Christ's Church will be going through... the time of "great tribulation" that Jesus warned His saints of. That is WHY He warned His saints! Get it?

Like to make stuff up?

Proof that Jesus comes to gather His Church on the 7th Vial:

Rev 16:15-17
15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.


16 And He gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.

KJV

Jesus speaking to His Church STILL on earth on the 6th Vial, said, "Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame."

The very next event there is His gathering the armies on earth to battle at Armageddon to end this present world which is the 7th Vial.

Jesus comes on the 7th Trumpet of Rev.11, which is the "last trump" of Apostle Paul in 1 Cor.15.

Jesus comes on the 6th Seal of Rev.6.

Only one time of Jesus' return to gather His Church. Not two, not three, etc.

great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea:
This can be an asteroid, but also a super-volcanic eruption as well, since it does say a great mountain burning with fire. Yellowstone, even the Great Syria-Africa Rift are areas that might erupt. Even in scripture, Christ sets his feet on the Mt of Olives and it divides in two. So a crack/fissure in the earth occurs. The area of the Dead Sea historically has been a hot thermal zone. The Syria-Africa Rift is 3500 miles long and has dozens of active and inactive volcanos along that rift. The area where Jesus was tempted, the demons sent into the pigs that were sent into the abyss happened in that area, the wilderness outside of Jerusalem. It is said,, demons dwell beneath the earth in this area and very likely, the angel that comes down and opens the Bottomless Pit is likely to happen in that area. Demon- locusts come out of this pit that smokes (like a burning furnace). But we can suspect that asteroids will be involved as well, since 1/3 of all ships are destroyed by the violent waves of the ocean. The Bible speaks of a worldwide earthquake which would also do the job as well. We will soon see ... or hopefully be taken out before that happens.

Peter taught in 2 Peter 3 that this present world is preserved unto destruction by God's consuming fire.

All else is just useless speculation.

I guess God didn't need to give us the book of Revelation then?

Christ's Revelation is not speculation. I sense you don't understand the meaning of the word 'speculation'.
