Bible prophecies
RE: Bible prophecies

This implies that the kingdom has already been established prior to the second coming.

The context of Matthew 13:41 never suggests the kingdom is established before the coming of the Son of Man.

Read again what it says:

The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil.

That's what it says. To send out angels throughout the kingdom that he had already established to weed out the evildoers. Where does it say he hadn't arrived yet?

Why does 'god' need a return trip? Shouldn't a 'god' be able to do the whole job in one visit?

Why do you always portray your 'god' as some kind of inept twit?

Prophecies are like those crystal ball magicians that claim to know the future, the words used are so subjective to interpretation that it will seem fulfilled. Once a woman read the hand of my entire group of friends, it's laughable that she magically guessed their future actions and past actions. Guess what she was? A clue: She was not a witch

Meh, in this case they (bible prophecies) aren't even that. They are some sort of bastardized social commentary of current events (to the authors)- or so it would appear to us based upon all available evidence. The authors aren't even trying to guess - they're threatening.

-provided that there isn't actually a giant fairy at the bottom of our garden.

I don't understand the recovery time involved here. With a little hydration and at most a short nap, I can cum twice a day.

Hehe I have you beat on that subject. Wink
I don't even need recovery time.

Martin Charnin's prophecy came true....he's not in the bible though.

Matty also says:

Quote:and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. 53 They came out of the tombs after Jesus’ resurrection and[e] went into the holy city and appeared to many people.

You know what? This is horseshit, too.

If there's any evidence required that fundamentalist religion is a death cult, RR is it.

The only prophecies that came true were the ones written after the events took place.

Speaking of prophecies the one in Zephaniah chapter 1 was probably written to spin up the troops during one of the Crusades to get them in the proper frame of mind to run the muslims out of Jerusalem.

Funny! You've got me there; however, I need a cigarette and somebody needs to make me a sandwich.
