Is the drying up of the rivers of euphrates a sign of the end times? I'm honestly afraid that i can't be saved, i've never been religious and can't imagine being even remotely sinless for a moment
>>18653015Don't be retarded, there's no end times. At least not until the earth becomes unable to sustain human life, which is a point even the current rapid climate change won't bring us to. It's just a sign of bad times.
>>18653019Are you saying this as an edgy atheist or as a catholic with biblical knowledge
>>18653019all it takes for the end times of humanity is a transmissible prion disease like the one we already see in american deer. seems quite fitting for the boastful criminal brains to literally rot helplessly in their bone cases
Jesus never asked you to be sinless.what are you on about
>>18653066Yes he didMatthew 5:30 btfos most denominations
>>18653015Ask God to have mercy on you, repent and believe the gospel that Jesus died to cleanse you of sin
>>18653015Wasnt this going to happen eventuall the middle-east has been slowly began desertifying since 4000 b.c and the climate also turning more arid
>>18653106See>>18653077>>18653111Something happening naturally doesn't mean that it isn't prophecy. If anything it could mean that there is something that knows the beginning from the end. But it would be impressive if they could predict that the river would dry up eventually
>>18653077that is out of contextmortal man can not become sinless in this form Stop being a denier of Christ
>>18653077>Matthew 5:30also it defeats the whole purpose.> hey anon just don't sin, you don't need Jesus
No it's not a sign of the end times. Mainly because everything could be a sign at any point in time, and it always isn't the end times until we finally fuck up and launch all the nukes. Then you'll be able to say you were right about whatever thing you think was a sign and post it on here I guess.
>>18653140The river euphrates drying up is a specific event that happens in the end times in revelations
>>18653130I really dont want this argument because this is not the topic of the thread. No one so far has given me a good answer.
Maybe, but the rivers and seas haven't turned to blood yet, so I think you've still got plenty of time. Sorry if that means you're losing a bet.

>>18653186Are you implying it's just a natural change in climate that would've been deadly for people back then?
>>18653015there isn't anyone who can't be saved, God can save everyone. Pray to Jesus and say you are sorry for all of the sins you have ever committed (list as many of them as you can think of, even) and that you want to let him into your heart and to guide you. Read the gospel of John and John's letters (1 John and 2 John) and Paul's letter to the Ephesians (if you do not have a Bible to hand then simply read online on biblegateway; preferably KJV translation but you can start with ESV to understand it simply if you want). Then find your nearest church and see where He takes you.Pray the Lord's Prayer (Our Father...) regularly in the quiet of your own room and when out and about silently pray the Jesus Prayer often in times of trouble ("Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner")God help you and bless you anon.
>>18653265Why kjv specifically?
>>18653290because it's the only version that includes the 'Johannine comma' in 1 John that affirms the Trinity unambiguously, and I simply do not trust secular academics who claim that it was an insertion there's just something dodgy to me about every other English translation not including it; also just the fact that the KJV is the oldest most well known English translation so likely freer from any modern influences possibly affecting the theology in the translation. I have only recently started thinking this about it and could be convinced otherwise but it's neither here nor there.Your salvation is not dependent on a translation but in faith in Jesus alone, ultimately.
>>18653366I don't see a point because it seems like most english versions affirm the trinity. Catholic and orthodox also affirm this as well so i don't understand other than as a way of making them seem less legitmate.
Why is no one giving me a good answer
>>18653437fair enough>Catholic and orthodox also affirm this as well so i don't understand other than as a way of making them seem less legitmateCatholic and Orthodox aren't sticklers for which translation to use and aren't opposed to someone using a KJV as far as I know; I wasn't trying to make them seem less legitimate by saying this or anything.>>18653493an answer about what? the river Euphrates drying up being a sign of the end times?I suppose it probably is. You don't need to fear though, if you have faith in Christ.
>>18654748Which denomination are you? Catholics pretty much believe catholism is the only way.
>>18653015>river is drying up because its source isn't receiving enough rainfall>GOD IS PUNISHING US, IT'S THE END TIMES, EVERYONE START PRAYING FOR SALVATIONKek, religitards are so funny.
>>18655073This is literally the first recorded time in history it got this low.
>>18653015>Is the drying up of the rivers of euphrates a sign of the end times?Yes. The real question is: Does this mean that the end of times is coming? It's impossible to know whether it will happen until it does or does not.>I'm honestly afraid that i can't be saved, i've never been religious and can't imagine being even remotely sinless for a momentIdk, most Christian denominations hold it's never too late to be saved.>>18655371This is the first recorded time in history the Climate has been like this, too.
>>18653015Isn't this just Turkey hogging all the water by building dams?
>>18655382I mean regardless of the cause i think it's worrying
>>18653015>>18653149>>18653493>>18655073>>18655371>>18655390It's drying up because it has almost 22 fucking dams you nitwit ooga boogas. It's going to dry up MORE because every cunt thinks they can squeeze in another dam.
>>18655397Ok this is the best secular explanation. I just have a fear that it draining could still be part of revelations but this has been the best secular post so far.
>>18655397>Turks flooded precious neolithic sites to build dams and then went on to building another 20 dams downstream anywayOkay that seriously pisses me off
>>18655397>>18655399nothing about it having a manmade explanation means it isn't still the event that was prophecied
