Heck, a literal Christmas card to every single person on the planet. That'd get our attention too...Or just a sufficiently large megaphone.

So it would take destroying the earth or most of the people on it to get your attention to what He’s been telling us. Thanks a lot. That’s what caused the other times too.This pandemic doesn't seem terribly biblical. Surely a wrathful creator God would send something more deadly than 2-3% mortality...
He supposedly drowned the entire planet, for example. If He wants to get our attention, an asteroid would be a better vehicle...
How is sending everybody a Christmas card "destroying the earth or most of the people on it "?So it would take destroying the earth or most of the people on it to get your attention to what He’s been telling us. Thanks a lot. That’s what caused the other times too.
No, it's not. Christians have been saying we aer in the end times for two thousand years. There's nothing to indicate that you and others saying we are in it now are any moer correct than all the others who've been wrong for millenia.The locusts are as believable as a global pandemic virus. They’re both epic scourges that were predicted for the end times. What we’re experiencing in the “real world” is Biblical.
The Bible called those the ”last days.” If you look at the history of the earth, 2,000 years is a drop in the bucket. And we’re seeing more and more of the end times predictions now. So it’s not unreasonable to think that.No, it's not. Christians have been saying we aer in the end times for two thousand years.

How does the last 2000 years compare to 68 to 66 million years ago, when there were fricking T. rex wondering around, culminating in a huge asteroid strike that wiped out most of the life on the planet? You don't get much more end times than that!The Bible called those the ”last days.” If you look at the history of the earth, 2,000 years is a drop in the bucket.

Only a few million years ago.When did humans show up?
Just because we can't identify them does not mean they can't exist.Nothing on this board is a serious discussion. It's about UFOs for goodness sake.
No.Only a few million years ago.
Wait. You think that was the end times, when mankind showed up? Scary.
No, it didn't. It is YOU who are calling these the last days, not the bible.The Bible called those the ”last days.”
Completely irrelevant.If you look at the history of the earth, 2,000 years is a drop in the bucket.
Exactly what Christians have been saying for 2,000 years. They've been wrong every time, and there's no reason to think you are any more correct than they.And we’re seeing more and more of the end times predictions now. So it’s not unreasonable to think that.

And it was wrong. The New Testament days weren't the final days.No, the Bible refers to the New Testament days as the final days.
“And now in these final days, he has spoken to us through his Son.” ~ Hebrews 1:2 (NLT)
”In these last days, he has spoken to us by his Son.” (CSB)
”has in these last days spoken to us by His Son” (KJV)
History seems to go in long epochs, or ages... the stone age, the ice age, the dark ages. So this could very well be the last age, or days.And it was wrong. The New Testament days weren't the final days.

That doesn't follow from what I wrote.So it would take destroying the earth or most of the people on it to get your attention to what He’s been telling us.This pandemic doesn't seem terribly biblical. Surely a wrathful creator God would send something more deadly than 2-3% mortality...

Ok, skeptic.The New Testament days were not the final days; the bible was wrong.
I think he has a point. "Last days" indicates a period of time more easily measured in days, not years or even centuries. It is quite a stretch to call 2000 years "last days".Ok, skeptic.
Sorry, but I'm going solely on what you said - "the Bible refers to the New Testament days as the final days."Ok, skeptic.
Only if you’re thinking like a human. God doesn’t. He’s not bound by earth time, like we are.I think he has a point. "Last days" indicates a period of time more easily measured in days, not years or even centuries. It is quite a stretch to call 2000 years "last days".
It is like saying you are in the last minutes of your life. Sure you might live another 30 years, but that is the last 16 million minutes of your life. You can bend the words to mean what you want, but it is very unlikely the person who said the words had that in mind.
