Interesting CURRENT event or SEAfood for thought- bad I know

Post by IRQ Conflict »

Stocks have collapsed in nearly one-third of sea fisheries, and the rate of decline is accelerating.
BBC News

Rev 8:8 And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood;
Rev 8:9 And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed.
Hellfire

1Ti 6:20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:
1Ti 6:21 Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.

You too bizzt. My apologizes, I have been working too much and had a spell where I was a little burnt out and didn't do any posting for a while. :)

You have been missed.

IRQ? Is that really you? Where have you been man? Hope all is well with you and glad to see you back.
Let us proclaim the mystery of our faith: Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again.

Lord I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed.

IRQ,

If the BBC Article had mentioned the great mountain burning with fire being cast into the sea, and verified that a third part of the ships are being destroyed, this might have some merit. (It would also help if you were to explain why John would write this to the First Century Churches of Asia in light of Revelation's clear time frame references, ike "shortly", "quickly", "near", "about to", and "at hand".)

Dispensationalists need to make a decision. Is God's prophetic "time clock" on hold until the rapture or not? If so, then no current event could be a fulfillment of Bible Prophecy. If not, then we have less then 7 years left (depending on when it started up again), per the Dispensational interpretation of Daniel's 70 week prophecy.

PL, you mention less than 7 years left, could one think that the Inca calender which I have read ends in 2012 and also 2013 mean life as we know it will totally change, not end as some have said?
