Title: Any prophecies concerning South East Asia? Post by: spectre260 on January 26, 2006, 07:16:19 AM I'm reading my bible and studying it but I'm not that close to understand what God is trying to tell me but this came to my mind: South East Asia. What will happen to us living here on the Philippines, (which is a part of SEA) because this South East Asia is full of ungodly things and people. Here in the Philippines, many people believe in astrology, fortune tellers, feung shuei or fung shuy... whatever, talismans, witchcraft etc. Mostly the youth of my age in this country is engrossed in those things and I am concerned about them. What will happen to them if the time of the Lord comes? Will they ever see heaven or experience eternal life? Will they be able to rise victorious against sin?

I see that you are new, so WELCOME! (http://www.sirinet.net/~blkidps/welcome.gif) There is evil and problems of all kinds all over the world. There are many different opinions about Bible Prophecy, but nearly all will agree that most of the world population will die in end of this age events, and GOD will pour out His wrath on evil. There will come a time when GOD'S Patience is ended, and it really won't matter what part of the world a person lives in. There are also many people accepting JESUS CHRIST as Lord and Saviour around the world. Many others will reject HIM and die in their sins. We should already know that hosts have already died in their sins, and it is too late for them. Regardless of what someone believes about Bible Prophecy, our physical life is uncertain, and we could die at any time. If we haven't accepted JESUS, we will spend eternity in the fires of hell. We have several good discussions on this subject right now on the forum, so you are welcome to join in. Love In Christ, Tom Matthew 17:5 NASB While he was still speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and behold, a voice out of the cloud said, "This is My beloved Son, with whom I am well-pleased; listen to Him!"

With the exception of China, I am not aware of any specific prophecies regarding SEA or the Philippines in specific. End time events will most certainly affect the entire globe however. Quote Here in the Philippines, many people believe in astrology, fortune tellers, feung shuei or fung shuy... whatever, talismans, witchcraft etc. Mostly the youth of my age in this country is engrossed in those things and I am concerned about them. It is good that you are concerned for these. Carrying a burden for the lost an important! Use that for Gods glory by sharing His love and Gospel to those around you. Jesus didn't spend all His time with Godly folks, He spent His time with sinners sharing truth and salvation. Sounds like you are in a good place to follow His examples. Am I correct in assuming you yourself have accepted Christ as your Saviour? Quote What will happen to them if the time of the Lord comes? Will they ever see heaven or experience eternal life? Will they be able to rise victorious against sin? Joh 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. This is the only way any of us will see the kingdom of heaven, or overcome sin. Acceptance of Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour! Many will come to know Christ as Lord and Saviour during the tribulation, but it will be a difficult path. The easiest solution is, If you are a believer yourself, then share the Gospel of Christ with someone today! :) Sounds like the harvest is very ripe in your region of the world! Love In Christ!

Post by: twobombs on January 27, 2006, 05:07:01 AM Rev 6:14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
So, you're basically looking at earthquakes I recon. But the good news reads a couple of verses further: Rev 6:17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? And that is us ! We will : 1Th 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 1Th 4:17 Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

Brother, you quoted two of my favorite Verses: Quote 1Th 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 1Th 4:17 Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. I love this thought, and the wording is incredibly beautiful. May GOD give us all the strength and desire to do HIS WILL until the moment HE comes to take us home! Love In Christ, Tom Psalms 139:9-10 NASB If I take the wings of the dawn, If I dwell in the remotest part of the sea, Even there Your hand will lead me, And Your right hand will lay hold of me. |
