Agreed. When we find ourselves acting in fear, we are no longer acting in faith. How do we receive faith? By hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

There certainly is a difference between a survival nut and a servant of God.

Truth. :) It took Noah a very long time to build that boat. :) He must have slept a time or two.
 
I don't believe for a minute oncefallen meant God was going to fail her. Loo, we live in a world in which there are earthquakes, famines, hurricanes, etc. That doesn't mean God has failed us. the point here is to be prepared for disasters.
Absolutely we have to be spiritually prepared. I agree with you on that. But you made it sound like her preparation meant that oncefallen was not spiritually prepared when that has nothing to do with saving cans. Just because we begin to prepare for disasters doesn't mean we are not spiritually prepared. We need to be spiritually prepared, but be otherwise prepared also. In Acts 11:27,28 we see a severe famine coming. The disciples began to provide help. We have been warned that disasters will and are happening.
'her'...???

"Pleeeeease, oncefallen -- say it isn't so!" :eek:

;)

("I'm sorry - I just couldn't resist...") :o

:)
 
Without God, there is no preparation for things to come. Noah would not have known what was coming nor known what to do. It is only by His Spirit that are able to know.

Daniel 2
[SUP]22 [/SUP]He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.
"And this - dear brothers and sisters in Christ - is exactly why we study End Times Prophesy -- so that - by the Holy Spirit, based on the Word of God - we can know what is coming and how to prepare for it. And, I am talking about 'spiritual prepping' - the most important kind of 'prepping' that you can possibly do..."

And - yes - I know that we should not be 'obsessed' with it to the point of imbalance; however, it is also true that some people dedicate themselves to it because most others do not - and someone needs to ... for the sake of others...

It was a JOKE???????!!! :eek: I was trying to find my credit card!!! *disappointed*

If you've got a credit card with a $25K limit that isn't maxed out, I want to be your friend. Still have room in your basement for one more?
 
I have at least one gallon of water in the trunk of my car at all times. I know how to gut/clean a lot of animals, and start a fire.

I've been through hurricanes where we've lost power, grocery store shelves empty, gas stations out of fuel, etc.
I'm not worried about going hungry..maybe I'm naive, but the body can go a pretty long time without food.

The idea of death doesn't scare me so much as not being spiritually prepared, or just being brutally tortured and murdered by a psychopath.
 
Starving to death is supposed to be unspeakably awful. It affects the mind, eventually.
