What's on your mind?

Don't forget as well that the Gospel must have been shared with all people groups before the end times as well, but either way I wouldn't sit around and wait for it to happen. I'm not really sure what good it does to speculate on what events are fulfilling which cryptic prophecies. Live the life you've got to its fullest.

All the chess pieces are being set up for the end times and we all have a front row seat.

This really could have been said several times throughout world history.

No one knows the exact day or hour except the Father Himself. Speculating and guessing will not change anything but will instead cause some people to become worried and scared. Let's enjoy the time we have.

Well, of course, but we're beginning to see more of what Revelation is talking about. It's like labor pains that are getting closer and closer together. These events are happening at a quicker rate and with a greater intensity it seems. We're getting into the thick of most of those prophecies.

Many people believe that Daniel 12:9-10 means that Bible prophecy will make more and more sense as we get closer to the end.

For example, the King James Bible describes the mark of the beast as, "And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name." As told in Revelation 13:16-17.

Back then, how would you picture that? A mark inside your hand or forehead in order to buy and sell thing? A tattoo? A seal stamp? It was difficult to imagine up until now when implantable RFID chips, electronic payments, and cashless societies are becoming a reality.

As we get closer to the end, prophecy won't seem as vague anymore when you take the time to think about it.

I have had this conversation on CF before too. But just to reiterate my point back at the time, just because you get a chip in your wrist does not mean that you are all of a sudden un-saved. Lest that myth be perpetuated. Not that I desire one, but if we're going to refer to Revelation, we need to make sure we're thinking about things in the context of the whole of Scripture.

Can we talk about something else, please? Definitely don't want to be rude or anything but this is triggering my anxiety.

Would you rather be able to speak to and understand animals or fly?

I just realized that I want to be a teacher who gives a class on time so I can intro it by singing "lets talk about secs, baby!"

That's a tough one.

Alright, I'm sorry. We'll talk about something else.

Got any new drawings planned?

Found a pretty complete list of WCW shows that aired from 1996 to it's end in early 2001 on YT by sheer accident the other day. Quite a find because that was pretty much the time span that I watched wrestling at all, much less religiously. Ah, the memories.

So I have kept myself entertained the last few days having these old episodes playing in the background on the computer while doing other work.

One thing I always wished they had happen more often on these shows was the referees getting back in the heel wrestlers' grills whenever the bad guys tried to throw their weight around and intimidate or assault the poor guys who just tried to do their job and referee the match. It'd have been awesome to see the little guy somehow fight back and end up stunning or humiliating the heel wrestler who was shoving them around or clearly cheating during a match somehow (because that's what heels always did). But for some reason they never tried to shake up the script a little all those years I watched by having something like that happen where the good guy, the face wrestler, would be allowed to come back and get a legal win after clearly getting shafted by a cheap shot, or the when the referee called for the bell after the heel called in the crew to come beat up the lone face and thus disqualify the match, that the bell would actually call off the ensuing chaos. But no, every single time the bell was called (approximately twice per episode =P ), the bad guys wouldn't stop and retreat from the ring. They'd just keep violently assaulting every unfortunate face wrestler - and sometimes the referee and security and even the occasional fan, too - who was nearby (or at least it would be considered violent assault in real life if these shows weren't scripted, of course ), and the referee would just stand there helplessly, shouting like "Stop! Stop!" But security would hardly ever come and pull these guys away. You'd think they would be waiting in the wings to intervene every time a main event happened between known faces and heels, because the matches would almost never go fairly. The heel wrestler would always have his comrades waiting to come out and gang up on the face wrestler the moment the heel was about to lose, or use an illegal item to knock the face wrestler out cold when the referee would stupidly get distracted and then turn around conveniently just as the heel was going for the pin. =P
Man, I should feel like such a moron for avidly watching these shows back in the day. I guess I still am even if just for the nostalgia.

What a lovely cheer me up thread lol


Can't sleep AGAIN.

Got sick because oh how embarrassing this is.

So my mum went to mass on Saturday and as a loving caring daughter, i went to pick her up since it is raining, (Its was also mothers day on Sunday here) So I just kept my Pyjamas on, grabbed a cardigan and put my boots on (BIG MISTAKE)



There is like one entry and exit into the chapel -The road beside it you can't park. So as i drove in, i was like right I'll reverse my car and park it facing the exit so it is easier to just drive out. So i swing my car around (So I car reverse my car in the parking spot) but I end up going over the kerb onto the grass. AAAAHHHHHHHH

I reverse back and YIP cause its raining. I get stuck. I start to panic. I jump out and for some mad reason start to dig at the mud, then try to flatten it out. Am panicking more in case I've blocked people from getting out (Thankfully I hadn't). I phone my stepdad. He comes. He doesn't have a tow bar on his car....

By this point, my mum comes out of mass (She's just returned to her faith, so doesn't really know anyone, but now she does) and there's me soaked in my pyjamas covered in mud. ha ha ha

I was like ok am going to have to phone the AA, so I and my mum get in the car. - I am praying to God btw to help me out of this mess. I tell my stepdad to go home (he has been unwell himself) the AA has me on hold for ages. I say to my mum, shocking them coming out of mass and not one person has asked if I need help.

And then this guy comes and offers helps. By the end of it, there were 6 men (Tbh they were all loving it, they were debating the best way to get it out). The priest even came out to help... The first go was with the smallest car and the priest and this other guy pushed the car... I had images of the priest falling out. Someone ended up going to get his work van and that did the trick.

I got sick from the rain.

I am now going to buy them all Easter eggs.

There could be worse places to be stuck and the chapel isn't one of them.

Russia claims to have a supersonic weapon and will use it on USA and NATO if Russia or its allies get attacked whether it be nuclear or conventional. Israel says they will be dealing with Iran and Hezbollah and are making preparations for a war with as many as six fronts. The US is still dealing with North Korea who is threatening with nukes. US and Israel are allies, Russia, Iran, and North Korea are allies, and Hezbollah is a proxy of Iran.

This is one heck of a Mexican standoff right now.

Russia has had supersonic weapons for about 65 years now........
Have you heard the term “mutually assured destruction”? This is also well over 55 years old too. why does this bother you now? It's not news

Am just a bit bummed becuase the ski area closes for the season this Sunday and I really enjoy riding my snow board. So, going to try to ride each day until then. That is what is on my mind

I think I just found the thread she was referring to the other day when she was like "Now I see why some guys remain single". ... Reading it and I'm like, ... wow.

I just love egomaniacism dressed as God-fearing, Bible-believing virtue. (... Err, that last statement is sarcasm, to be sure.)

You piqued my curiosity. Could you provide me a link please?

What's the purpose of having two "What's on your mind?" threads going at once?

We have a lot on our minds. Too much for just one thread.
