Good discussion topic. I just started reading the Bible for the first time so can't answer, but damn while reading it do I ever think it was written for TODAY. It's incredible when you have eyes to see.

Well, human nature hasn't changed in thousands of years. "As in the days of Noah" "Like a dog returns to it's own vomit" The Bible will always be relevant. And, congratulations on starting the journey, anon!

15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.

19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.

"They want you divided by religion"

What part of this don't you understand?

Believe in whatever you like, so long as you aren't harming others or using your beliefs to control, corrupt or convert.

If the Jews build a third temple in Israel, it is on like Donkey kong.

If Israel makes peace with the Arabs, it will again be on and time to start the clock.

I can tell you one thing the angels do not know exactly how all this plays out.

If Christians actually start believing and doing Jesus one commandment, Satan will pull out the stops.

12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

  1. If the Father has told me that only he knows the appointed hour, why would I bother to consider what I think?

For the Christian: do you believe this is the Final act before believers reign with God on Earth for 1000 years or is this merely another chapter?

As a believer, I try to keep an open mind but I have no compelling reason to think that story is literally true.

I appreciate that the New Testament was INSPIRED by the word of God but is also subject to the full spectrum of human error in it's initial record, compilation, translation and interpretation. The authors of the New Testament tried to record stories about what people witnessed and tried to understand the context, but it's not necessarily accurate.

I focus more on simply trying to have a relationship with Jesus and relying on many of the time-tested truths of the bible - especially relating to traditional Christian family values.

Agnostic here. It's simple for me, Q being a legit operation against the deep state does not = God is real. Seems like a strawman argument.

It is important to think about the fact that our whole existence is a matter of faith.
