Yup...it's still crazy. Even the earthquake in Nepal proves Christ's coming. In the Bible, I think somewhere in Revelation, it says: "There will be earthquakes in diverse places..."
Yeah a lot of my relatives were saying the same thing
And what do you think about the legalization of same sex marriages?
I don't like it, but I can't say I was shocked. Although I didn't know they were making that decision that day, I still wasn't shocked when I heard what they decided on the news.

Yea this world is pretty messed up i'm sorry for the people of our generation if they don't get their acts together.
Yeah it's sad. I kinda feel like many Christians have been getting too outraged by this, though. They've been letting it discourage them way too much instead of trusting in God. My sister, in the heat of the moment, said that she didn't want to have kids if there was a chance they might end up gay. But that's not good. She should trust God and trust that good Godly parenting will be enough. Besides, if someone decides they want to be gay, it won't be because of the law. They would with or without it.
My friend had told me that she went to a church with her family & decided she wanted to kinda get a little closer to God, but by the time the service ended, she wasn't so sure. She had mentioned that the pastor was solely against the legalization of same-sex marriages.Now...I get that, as a Christian, we're not exactly supposed to support it, but you dont get shoot them down like that.
Yea, that's another one of our problems, our lack of faith. I believe that if we spent more time praying and seeking out for God than wallowing in self pity and the other time wasting things we do, we'd be much better off.And also our judging eyes.
Yes definitely! I hate that some Christians judge others way too harshly and treat them like they're less than we are. We're all sinners, so we don't have the right to judge them, only God.
Exactly. "ALL have sinned & COME SHORT of the Glory of God."I think some Christians forget that we're apart of the ALL that have come short of God's Glory. And it's sad, ya know?
Amen to this whole conversation! I love that you girls are willing to confront these difficult situations and shed the light of God upon the world. I'd just like to mention one thing. It's great that we're taking action for God with our words, but we have to remember that it's not all we should do. We have to take physical action as well as spiritual action against the lies and deceits of Satan.
Right. It'll be hard, with many bumps along the way, but it's worth it.
