Much like what is described in the Bible.......


Luke 21
9 When you hear of wars and uprisings, do not be frightened. These things must happen first, but the end will not come right away.”

10 Then he said to them: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.
11 There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.




.......... might be coming!



The virus might just be one of many disasters and upheavals that's about to descend on us........IF NASA's prediction proves to be bang-on!








Like the deeper Maunder and Spörer Minimums preceding it, the Dalton brought on a period of lower-than-average global temperatures. The Oberlach Station in Germany, for example, experienced a 2C decline over 20 years, which devastated the country’s food production.

The Year Without a Summer also occurred during the Dalton Minimum, in 1816. It was caused by a combination of already low temperatures plus the aftereffects of the second largest volcanic eruption in 2000 years: Mount Tambora’s VEI 7 on April 10, 1815.

Clothes froze on the line in New England, ice on ponds and lakes was reported in northwestern Pennsylvania in both July and August, and Virginia had frosts in August. The temperature occasionally got into the 90s, but then would drop to nearly freezing in just a few hours.

Crops that had managed to sprout were frozen out in early June, replanted, and frozen again in July. Very few crops were actually harvested, and of those that were, the yields were very poor. In turn, food and grain prices skyrocketed — for example, in 1815, oats sold for $0.12 a bushel but by the next year, a bushel would set you back $0.92.

And the story was the same across the world:

It had happened before. The question is: how will it compare with the precedents?
 
Overall there are 45 volcanoes with ongoing eruptions as of the Stop Dates indicated, and as reported through the last data update (17 April 2020), sorted with the most recently started eruption at the top. Information about more recently started eruptions can be found in the Weekly Report.

Although detailed statistics are not kept on daily activity, generally there are around 20 volcanoes actively erupting on any particular day.

The end is not coming.
 
But humanity has experienced pandemics before, and this one is mild compared to the Black Death or the Spanish flu, so how is this one any different?
 
We watch "Apocalypto" again this weekend. They experienced it all and they prophesied it.
 
Tell that to the dead Covid victims.

It is the end to them, and being dead, they can't hear. However, although the number of deaths is shocking, and could have been avoided if there wasn't incompetence in charge of governments, it is not a plague of 'biblical proportions' , because the advances in medical technology and healthcare is allowing us to prevent that level

You do realize that Aprocalypto is a piece of fiction.
 
Bet you feel the same about the Christian Bible.

Why, yes, I do. The way it lies about the Jewish scriptures to promote it's version of God is astounding.

To me, anything that suggests prediction is biblically pretentious and irreverent. But that's just me.

How is it different?
Milder.

True but there is one major difference Jesus spoke of when telling us to stay awake to his composite sign of the beginning of the last days...

“Truly I say to you that this generation will by no means pass away until all these things occur.” Matthew 24:34

Sorry - but all this is repulsive rubbish.

And what I find especially repulsive is this constant Bible "Christian" joy about the end of the world, when Bible "Christians" think they will go to heaven and everybody else will go to hell.

So, a person who claims to be a Christian is repulsed by the Bible...interesting...:rofl

I predict it will rain in various places! And there will be landslides in other places! Woohoo, I'm a biblical prophet! :)

Woah, sounds like it could have been lifted out of the bible, with Christians playing the role of the Mayans. Human sacrifice, utter destruction of life and property, everything.

Mayans would be played by any number of long gone empires.

And clearly that generation passed away. So either Yahweh/Jesus can't communicate with the skill of a modern middle school student, or He was wrong.
 
Mayans would be played by the Jews.

Christians would be better suited imo. Just look at modern White Evangelicals. They support scamming money from children with cancer, stealing from charity, bragging about sexually assaulting women, scamming people with fake universities. There seems to be literally nothing most won't support for personal gain. According to White Evangelicals:

Survey: White Evangelicals See Trump As 'Honest' And 'Morally Upstanding' : NPR

Unlike White Evangelicals, the vast majority of people of Jewish decent I know are against this kind of stuff.
