Indeed WHO was Jesus talking TO when He said these things? THAT is the biggest question...

When figuring out the timing of at least some "End Times" events. WAS Jesus talking TO the people of HIS day, or WAS HE talking TO Greg from 2025 in Iowa? Or Lucy in Oklahoma in 2024? Some apocryphal writings that DO give DETAILS of End Times events IN THE SENSE OF total destruction and a Final Judgment, and a New Heaven and New Earth, entrance into the Eternal Age, do NOT make ANY mention of a Tribulation as part of that deal, it is just TOTAL DESTRUCTION, Resurrection, Judgment, Eternal Age, done deal, all done within a short time frame, no 7 year Tribulation...maybe because that already happened?

So you’re saying the Bible is irrelevant

SpiritualMan · M

@Ferise1 Nope not at all, the bible says a lot of things, but if the Great Tribulation happens once and only once per what Jesus said, and we either lived before or after it happened, then the events of the Great Tribulation specifically don't apply to us other than learning lessons from it like deeper faith in the midst of any kind of troubles that are not part of the Tribulation, or resisting evil authority, there are lessons to be learned but if we live far outside the time frame of the events, they don't apply to us as directly.

@Ferise1 We will likely never literally walk through parted waters in a large sea on dry land with walls on water on both sides, but we may run into situations that require applying that kind of faith.

@SpiritualMan you believe Moses actually parted the seas?

SpiritualMan · M

@Ferise1 No, I do not believe Moses parted the seas at all as a mere man, GOD parted the seas using Moses as a vessel.
