So my pastor just started his 10 week series on the end times (Mathew 24 and 25), perfect to get our blood flowing for the upcoming pandemic of "swine flu."
It was interesting because in the beginning of Mathew 24 the Disciples are asking when we will know when Jesus' return will be. And he replies, "I tell you the truth, not one stone here will be left unturned, Everyone will be thrown down," (NIV) anyways, when it came time for this to pass, it was due to a fire that caused all the gold used in the temple to meld down into the rocks... EVERY SINGLE rock was gone through to find each ounce, It is funny how circumstances arise to make the prophecy come true...
With that said, I am a little Skeptical of the "swine flu" and am glad to see more skeptics out there arguing if this is the correct name for it. Skeptic scientists are already coming together and figuring out the probability of a Pig, 2 Birds and humans crossing flu's and mutating them into 1... Yeah, most of them are agreeing that the probability is not quite in the favor of what we have been sheepishly hearing.
Tom Sullivan had callers in yesterday having them give suggestions of names they would call it, from Jumping the border flu, to terrorist flu all the way to my favorite, which is " A Perfect Chance for Obama to Push Socialized Medicine Flu" As much as I love the idea of socialized medicine, it seems pretty odd that this is popping up right after the new president elect has been trying to push this so hard... SO from here on, it will be called in my blog, (APCOPSM Flu)
(OPINION HERE, NO EVIDENCE, please no offense!) The government has to get us all mad so we can make a drastic change and keep Americans on board... Hence killing our loved ones... 9/11 = excuse to keep us in Iraq, APCOPSM flu = excuse to push socialism in this oh so wonderful great awesome, FREE, everyone is dieing for me because I am a piece of shit, lying country! (Sorry no offense!)
ANYWAYS... Here is what the bible says about this...
Matthew 24:7: "For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places."Divers is an old way to spell diverse. So this verse says that in the last days, there will be pestilences, in the plural. The dictionary says that pestilence is a contagious disease. Swine flu qualifies as a contagious disease. I think we can all agree on that...
So here is a quote from someone trying to say this is prophesied in the bible, but some argue if we are in the 7 year tribulation already or not... if we are, OBAMA=ANTICHRIST lol, not kidding... it is a possibility... okay so she obviously thinks the period hasn't begun but here is what she said.
"Many people look to Revelation as the ultimate book of Bible prophecy. Revelation mentions plagues starting in Revelation 9:20. Many people were killed by plagues earlier in the chapter, but they would not repent of their idolatry and their devil worship. However, this chapter is speaking about the time of the seven-year tribulation. There are no indications that we are in the tribulation, so these verses cannot be referring the current outbreak of swine flu."
To end, just know we live in an evil world... as a Christian, to argue this would be contradicting my beliefs. It is not surprising to hear of the evil around, and instead of blaming "mother nature" I think I will just stick to my "Conspiracy theories." :) But I would rather call them "Biblical Theories."
"Don't be so heavenly set, that you are no earthly good" Our pastor called us ostriches because we like to bury our heads in the sand and ignore the truth... I'd like to say our heads are somewhere else... :) So pull them out people... and get your face masks on!

"Repent for the end is near"
So I found this in the Journal of Discourses of the True Church(which are so fun to read)...
"You have heard me say, a great many times, that there is not that man or woman in this Church, and there never was and never will be, who turn up their noses at the counsel that is given them from the First Presidency, but who, unless they repent of and refrain from such conduct will eventually go out of the Church and go to hell, every one of them; and I expect one thing will be true and that Joseph said when living. A gentleman came to see him and asked him a great many questions, and among the rest he said - "I suppose you calculate that you are just right, and that you "Mormons" are all going to be saved and everybody else will be damned." Said Joseph, "Sir, I will tell you this one thing, all the rest of the world will be damned, and I expect that most of the "Mormons" will be unless they do better then they have done." The man did not stop for an explanation. What Joseph meant by being damned was that people will go into the spirit world without the Priesthood, and consequently they are under the power of Satan, and will have to be redeemed, or else they will be forever under his power. That is all there is about that."
-- JD 17:160, Brigham Young, August 9, 1874
So what do you think of that? You have a lot more repenting than you thought!!! ;-P (wink wink)
