  Preterism vs The Rapture??

  by DATA-DOG in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  in the preterist view, all scripture is fulfilled.

  when jesus said to his disciples, " this generation ", he meant it.

  they would not pass away until they saw the destruction of jerusalem.

  Why I am upset with myself for my atheistic beliefs

  yesterday me and the wife were talking about how much better life has become.

  she said something that got me thinking and made me a bit sad for a while.

  we were discussing where we are at individually in our quest for understanding about the "super-natural" and i expressed i have no belief in it at all and how much i have changed she says, "i don't think you have changed much.

  Even as a full in Jdub, I could never understand how going to all the meetings, put lots of hours in the FS, answering up, preparing for meetings etc etc... somehow equated with being spiritual. It really is totally meaningless. Although I did all those things, it left me completely cold.

  To me spirituality is sitting in a beautiful place outdoors and feeling at one with the surrounding nature (whether a believer in God or not), soaking up it's beauty, listening to birds sing and feeling your emotions soar. Having a great meal and being surrounded by all your family and just having fun and enjoying each other's company and feeling the love. Listening to an amazing piece of music and letting it capture your soul. Every human on this planet has a measure of spirituality. It just cannot be defined by religious rules!

  Maybe George Lucas got it right in Star Wars and there's civilisations all over the universe with lesser beings and higher beings. Or something like Star Trek or Dr. Who....

  LOL! Unstop, you make me smile. I know you're just winding them up... looks like you succeeded.

  It is quite interesting to consider though because evolution is an on going thing. So it ought to make sense that man won't stay where he is but would continue to evolve in some way. Is man's skin colour some kind of evolution? The closer to the equator man lived the darker his skin and the further away, the lighter his skin. Until globalisation came and mixed it all up within a few hundred years.

  Anyway, the way man's going he'll probably destroy the planet and everything on it and it'll all have to start all over again until eventually the sun dies....
