Though people often say the Bible is an outdated book, it actually tells of the past, present and future.  In Revelation (last book of the Bible) it talks about Christians being Raptured, after the Rapture, a person will rise to power (the antichrist) and make a one world currency and will unite the world in one faith.  This person will cause chaos while pretending to promote peace.  There will also be people who become Christians after the Rapture and they will endure the hardest seven years of their lives.  Many phenomenon will happen during this time. Luke 21: 6-28 is an excellent example of what is happening today.  Another great place to hear about this is the Left Behind series.  Though many people will try to predict when the Rapture will occur, no one can know, but based upon the events that are occurring in the world right now, many Christians believe it will happen soon.

  1. Can you please tell me how did you get that picture?

  2. Does swearing glorify God about as much as eating a cheeseburger? Does Jonah refusing Ninevah glorify God? Might I get the message across that the swearing was necessary to portray the cultured reality of end times... you can't seem to understand the idea that people will swear, and that will be the LEAST of their problems... I'm basically repeating myself again because you have this awesome concept of ignorance, blinded to your christianese belief system.

    The bible says the mouth speaks out of the abundance of the heart, so "Bad" language is not appropriate, what we're discussing here is the idea that swearing is bad... which I disagree. Swearing is just a different language, a coarse language that doesn't agree with your own culture...

    Can you cite biblical references of swearing being bad? And take into account the swearing we use in this context, not to swear to make an oath, or cursing, or bad language, you said it yourself "it all depends"

    "coarse" language is a translated language from poo to sh--, they just call it "coarse" because it's not befitting to some... I'm repeating myself again...

    And I believe I've done well setting the example that end times is not a pretty story. People are going to swear whether you or I like it or not, not for God's glory, for their own... you don't need to tell me that's not right, but it is the way it's going to be...

    Did I not tell you already to consider the prescriptive and descriptive elements? You love confusing me with this story...

  3. BAD language? I didn't hear any BAD language, you may have grown up in a very "Christianese" culture to consider the audio contents of Vorago BAD...

    What's the difference between saying poo and **** if they both mean the same thing? And the answer is simply based on culture and individual groups, NOT the bible that determines swearing is as you have clearly exemplified... there is no references to swearing actually being bad, you seem to confuse it with cursing... which if you read the script of Vorago, there is no cursing, though it is still permissible for me to include it... not beneficial though.

    To set a good example as a Christian would be to tell a story as it is. In order to capture the reality, the culture needs to be real, which may involve your definition of "swearing". Swearing is verbal violence and there is a lot of violence in the bible... You cannot defer one man saying "****" and then saying it was okay that David chopped Goliath's head off... It's all in the category of violence, and violence alone cannot be justified without cause, where swearing evolves into cursing.

    "Coarse language" at the beginning of Vorago is to warn those whose culture does not fit in terms of vulgarity, and you just went ahead and ignored that. When a sign tells you not to walk on grass, you don't walk on grass, only the man who permits it. The same with our discussion on culture, if the game tells you that it contains coarse language, leave it for the more befitting culture that might actually get saved from this :)

    There are countless things that didn't go right in the bible, yet it's still told... Why? Because it's the reality. Jonah refused ninevah, Solomon deferred wisdom to follow pagan rituals, Sodom and Gomorra... BOOM. It goes on. And then you have the good guys like Job.

    keep in mind each story has a prescriptive and descriptive element. :) Hope this helps

  4. oh ok

  5. So what "type" of christian r u? Baptist?I am.
