, what is the prudent thing for Christians to do now?
Should we not set aside previsions to help the elect, who will be persecuted by antichrist during the tribulation.
"
I don’t get this, and I don’t know how to answer it but will try.

In the tribulation you won’t be able the buy or sell unless you have the mark.

So how are you going to get food to the elect?

I hope you are not thinking about taking the mark so you can buy food for the rest of us

Don't be dumb, bless your heart!
As I said in another post, I do not expect to be living at that time, due to my terminal illness. I am asking should we not set aside provisions now, for the elect; caned goods and non perishables.

. The final kingdom that comes against us is a spiritual kingdom not an earthly kingdom. That kingdom has been targeting all who refuse to submit since THE false prophet established it roughly 1400 years ago. Despite the fact that THE false prophet is long dead, they are still united under him in there cause to advance his satanically inspired kingdom.

I’ll leave the fortune telling to those who want to stand on guesswork theology so they can play prophet.

What are you talking about

You have just played the prophet, fortune telling, and done the guesswork

Sorry bro but you didn’t say NOW

Yes set aside provisions now for the elect and give me the address because none of us will be able to buy food.

Or we could flee to the wilderness

Revelation 12:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

Revelation 12:14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.

What are you talking about

ROFLMHO! Do you own a dictionary? Apparently you do not know what a prophet is. I am not talking about future events but things from our past.

Prophet
PROPH'ET, n. [L. propheta.]
1. One that foretells future events; a predicter; a foreteller.
2. In Scripture, a person illuminated, inspired or instructed by God to announce future events; as Moses, Elijah, David, Isaiah, &c.
3. An interpreter; one that explains or communicates sentiments. Exo 7.
4. One who pretends to foretell; an imposter; as a false prophet. Acts 13.
of the prophets, among the Israelites, a school or college in which young men were educated and qualified for public teachers. These students were called sons of the prophets.

Aren’t you the one telling us what the future holds? Do you have anything productive to add to the discussion? Or do you wish to continue making false accusations?

Didn’t you say?

Wasn’t this in response to what I said about events that have been taking place over the last (past tense, not future) 1400 years? Since when has talking about events from our past made someone a prophet or fortune teller? It doesn't, so your accusation that I played the prophet is false. How is talking about things that have been going on for the last (past tense) 1400+ years supposedly telling the future? Aren’t you the one that claims to know what the future holds? Aren’t you the one that is continuously pushing your futurists propaganda? Maybe someday you will learn the difference between some who tells the future (prophet) and one who discusses past events. Sad peterT sad I’ll keep you in my prayers!

Do you have anything productive to add to the discusion? As you are led friend, as you are led!

When Christ returns to take His Bride(my hope is to be included)before Gods wrath, you are all most welcome to come, but if you really want to participate and be a part of the suffering to come...well that's your choice but please ask The Lord to give your "ticket" to someone else who wants to be part of The Bride of Christ.

I have read your posts and you say Islam is the beast

And I’m sure that is what you were referring too in post 92#

So there is no false accusations as you put it.

You have just played the prophet, fortune telling, and done the guesswork as much as anyone else

Do you have anything productive to add to the discussion?? That line is so lame

Wow! You're right. I forgot all about that fleeing to the wilderness thing.
That solves everything.

I had some dreams, we fled into the wilderness, there was a big tree laying on the ground coved in moss and some what looked like broken sea shells on the ground. I put some moss on a plate and some of the broken sea shells on the plate too, and when I passed it to someone else it turned into a hot plate of green spinach and sea food.

Another dream I had a small shoulder bag full of nuts and raisins, and every time we took a handful the bag filled its self again it never ran out.

Christian will operate according to their faith they always do.

Some will store food as many Christians have done over the years and there is nothing wrong with that, but there are millions of Christians in the world who are poor and can’t do that.

Say you stored food for you and others, were? and what’s the address or the place? Risky business, who do you tell, what if you die?, it may be years away

For Brother shall betray brother to death, A man's foes shall be they of his own household.

Risky business storing food but Christian will operate according to their faith they always do.

I think that doomsday preppers are dreaming, I mean, say you have been storing food for years and the time does come where food is now scars, how many "Christian" Doomsday Preppers are really going to share their resources with complete strangers in Christ, By the way it appears on documentories about D/P I would be very weary of approaching them

Yes peterT I was referring to Islam being the beast. The most desolate time in Jerusalems histroy has been while it was under Islamic control. But as I said before discussing past and or present events is not being a prophet. On the other hand those who claim to know the future are acting as prophets. Allow me to post the definition of a prophet again and maybe you can show us where a prophet is one who talks about the past.

Prophet
PROPH'ET, n. [L. propheta.]
1. One that foretells future events; a predicter; a foreteller.
2. In Scripture, a person illuminated, inspired or instructed by God to announce future events; as Moses, Elijah, David, Isaiah, &c.
3. An interpreter; one that explains or communicates sentiments. Exo 7.
4. One who pretends to foretell; an imposter; as a false prophet. Acts 13.
of the prophets, among the Israelites, a school or college in which young men were educated and qualified for public teachers. These students were called sons of the prophets.

As the above definition shows prophets discuss the future not past or present. Islam (the beast) has been staring us in the eyes for the past 1400 years, that my friend is not future. I am sorry you are incapable of understanding this simple difference and until you do I am sure you will continue to find some lame excuse to hide behind for your false accusation that those who discuss fulfilled prophecy are playing prophets. Thanks once again for demonstrating that discussion with you is futile and that you have nothing productive to add to the discussion. I’ll keep you in my prayers.

If you really belong to the Lord Jesus, you will share what you have with anyone who is hungry. That is what being a Christian is all about.

The Church is going to be on earth until the Last Trumpet sounds, 1Cor 15:51-52, so the Church is going to be right here on Earth through the Seals of Rev 6 and six of the Seven Trumpets of Rev 8 through 11. The Last Trumpet does not sound until Rev 11:15.

Have I misunderstood you? Aren't you promoting the view that the beast of Rev13:1-7 is a man called "the antichrist"? Doesn't the beast have seven heads? So if I understand you correctly wouldn't that make it a seven headed man?

Include any verse you want there is not a single verse in Scripture that says a beast is the antichrist but we do have verses proven by history that demonstrates beasts are kingdoms. Wasn't Daniels lion beast Babylon? Wasn't the bear Medo-Persia? Wasn't the leopard Greece? Can you show me where in Scripture that definition was changed?
I didn't say he was the anti- christ. Beasts do seem to bear resemblance of kingdoms I think world kingdoms and spiritual kingdoms is something to consider. Possibly at the same time. For example the prince of Persia who Gabriel was warring ,I don't think was a worldly prince.P I think Rev clearly says the eighth king is the beast that was ,is not yet is. I'm not sure on the interps about the four beasts in Danial. I am basically as the lord leads at different times look into some of these scriptures. I do not think I have some absolute truth .Just things I think about and might be worth something to somebody.There is probably much we all could say and could learn from together . But as long as we think we have the truth , and deny maybe the possibility of more than one right interpretation even for the same scripture .we think to much of ourselves and do not give God , at least the possibility that his words are so beyond the shallowness we all at sometimes intemperate them. Forgive me for my lack of patience
