This is the strangest thing I've ever seen:

Doesn't seem that strange to me, but then again, I've been around charismatics long enough to be used to things like this. I believe the person's comments are more likely reflective of an obviously strong possibility and his or her own fears than of the mind of God. Time will tell, won't it?
May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. | | Back to Top | | |

| Posted 2/3/2003 3:17 PM (GMT -6) | | This is an EXTREMELY odd sight. If the words spoken weren't making reference to God, I would think it was new age, or some weird dating service. The sexual overtones cannot be mistaken and it just feels creepy.
yep, words like strange, wierd and odd come to mind.
Maybe it's a generational thing, and I'm older than I think I am.

| Posted 2/3/2003 4:17 PM (GMT -6) | | What do you mean the site is weird? It is a journal community, and that community is a community within the community. Were you saying that the whole journal had the appearance of a new age sort?
Peace

| Posted 2/4/2003 8:31 AM (GMT -6) | | A_theist,
I am sorry, I shouldn't have said site---I did not look at the entire site, just the page where the prophesy is posted. It just seemed peculiar for a Christian web page. The photos and the user names were not what one would expect to see on a Christian thread, for instance "Candiedust", "Foxmagic", "Honkycracker". It just didn't feel wholesome to me. The dialogue in general felt like people were more concerned with being cute than to carry on an actual discussion.
I am assuming the discussion room is meant for teens or young adults and that's why I say, maybe I'm just out of it!
As far as the prophesy is concerned, I agree with John Earp, it's most likely her own fears comming out. God does sometimes give people visions or dreams, but I look for confirmation that something is truly from the Spirit before I believe it. (or tell others about it)
I am sorry if I have offended you!
S.B.G.

I wasn't offended, I was just understanding where you were looking. That christian community is full of people who have a warped view of Christianity--that is the beauty of any christian community it seems; nonbelievers who want to harass people who have faith in Christ. Sad world!
Blessings,
Paul
