Signs of the Second Coming

[Uncle Ted]

Jesus will return to Antarctica and slowly marshal his penguin army (those who see everything as black and white) northward, slouching towards Bethlehem, while his brightness makes the sun rise from the south, the rivers run backwards, and the stars fall from the sky, of you and I.

CB is all abuzz today about people believing something big is going down in the next year.

I blame the rise of crap like Visions of Glory and the Tent City! lady. Some Google searching shows Tent City talk dating back to at least 2008.

And let's not forget that every single generation of Christ's followers thought His return was soon.

I hate to see people blowing savings because they heard something bad is happening soon.

I still don't get the tent city thing. Why will we all go live in tent cities? Will all our houses be destroyed or is this going to be some kind of mass modern Zion's Camp?

Near as I can tell, it's a test of faith for the super-righteous members. So yeah, Zion's Camp.

I spent a few days in a tent over memorial day weekend. There's no way I could live in a tent in Missouri. Count me out.

Well, from what I've heard, there's no need to go that far. We're just talking west desert in the SL Valley.

Don't forget your 50 gallon drums of rice and beans! There's something strange about a bunch of folks stockpiling a bunch of water because there's a chance we're running out of the stuff.

Thanks for the link. There's some serious wack passing through the church.
