I gather, then, that the US (aka Babylon) will be attacked by an Alaskan-Canadian alliance?

Have they, now? Mind showing us, instead of just crying in the wilderness?

Seek the LORD JESUS CHRIST now while you may.

Asenath (and the others if you're still around), atheists can obtain and read copies of the bible, as well as easily go to online copies just like any believer. In fact <gasp> most of us have read it and are familiar with its arguments (such as they are). We can also follow your links to Baruch's sites, as we could when they were first brought up in a previous thread. Problem is, after getting to the site, it's really not convincing at all. Maybe god's word wasn't meant to be digitized...

You really aren't providing any new ground breaking stuff, you're just amusing the few that bother to stop and read your preachings. At least it was amusing a few posts back...

It's good to find one so enlightened as to have shared with me the reading of the Words of our LORD. But, it's good to be reminded. One so seldom finds that today therefore it's difficult for me to come to terms with your belief that most on this forum have read the Word (witnessed by the words of some on this thread alone). As you would know, nothing is mightier than the sword of the Word, and everything to do with man, vanity. Therefore, I choose the Words of the LORD:

"And behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. Surely I come quickly." Revelation 22:12, 13, 16, 20.

Become an atheist: Read the Bible. Your invisible friend wasn't much of an editor if the bible is anything to go by.

Ahh yes, 'how could they possibly not believe after reading the bible?'. Easy, we used our brains...

Do you have any evidence to go with that assertion?

Quote:

"And behold, I come quickly;

By virtue of new definitions of 'come' and 'quickly'.

I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

Man, this is a funny thread.

I am the root

Thanks, now I keep imagining a little cross with a carrot on it.

"And behold, I come quickly"

I understand it now. The Bible says that Jesus is to come "quickly", rather than "soon". Even if he is traveling at the speed of light, he may well be billions of lights years away.

"I am the root"

Square or cubic?
