No I said someone who is in the trib can know and count the days. Of course you now don't know when He comes.
And I told you only about the 3 and 1/2 days involving the two dead bodies of God's two witnesses laying in the street, then arising and the 7th trumpet following quickly thereafter. (Rev.11).

Have you even read what that 90 y o woman wrote? Do you know her? She's in heaven. She was a God fearing christian and you accuse her like it's nothing. I don't want to be the cause of that so I quit this discussion.
I don't have time for supposed modern-day prophets. There are no more prophets, only witnesses, and the time for God's two witnesses at the end certainly is NOT for TODAY, NOT YET.

Brethren in Christ: be careful of 'sensationalism' that false prophets use to drive one's emotions. Some really crazy ideas, and even supposed visions and being influenced by evil spirits has come from those who use 'sensationalism' to push their false doctrines outside of Bible Truth.
Generally speaking, that's true. It's amazing to me how people who are, for all we know, ordinary believers regardless of denomination, nevertheless are easily persuaded by all sorts of persons that they don't know much about who have said that they've seen and/or talked with the Faither, Christ, or the Holy Spirit (however they put it), and give forth "prophesy" because of some dream they had.

An elder in the Pentecostal Church at Moss, Norway, Martin Andersen, heard the following prophecy in 1937, in Moss:

'When oil comes out of the North Sea and along the Norwegian coast, things will begin to happen, and the return of Jesus is approaching.'

When these words had been proclaimed, people stood up in the congregation and asked the man to sit down and not speak such nonsense.

@SetFree has shown his doctrine is false when he places those on 'ignore' because he cannot support his doctrine with Scripture. He cannot answer the questions. This is common on forums.

Don't be discouraged. This is just the way it is.

Members have the right to set boundaries in place and it has nothing to do with whether their doctrine is correct or not.

I can't seem to find any source that says oil began erupting from the North Sea.

The Continental Shelf was explored in the 1960s and oil deposits were found, but nothing like "when oil comes out of the North Sea and along the Norwegian coast..." Maybe that will happen in the future?

By the way, why would THIS event (oil along the coast of Norway) be the one to signal the return of the Lord, especially since the Bible's description makes mention of other developments, but not this?

He didnt say it would come out spontaneously. Not the one signal, a signal according to a man in a church who got a prophecy during the 'who has something?' time. But with Putin last year and the gas prices becoming insane, so they want to get oil from the North Sea here and in Germany and we also get it from Norway, I had to think about it.

Okay, but this particular occurrence doesn't seem to add up to much of a prophesy.

In fairness the post did say that people told the "prophet" to stop speaking such nonsense.

The trouble with words like this is that "the return of Jesus is approaching" is such a vague concept. We can quite reasonably note that when the sun rises in the morning the return of Jesus is approaching. And it is approaching, because tomorrow when the sun rises it will be a day closer than it is right now. So if the event you predicted happens, the return of Jesus is approaching. If it doesn't happen, well, the return of Jesus is still approaching.

It's easy to get it right when your words are so vague they can never be wrong.

Well, yes, but I didn't get the idea that Messy was in their corner. More like those hardhearted people were unwilling to listen to prophesy, etc.

But it wasn't clear in the wording which was which, or that something else was meant.

Exactly.

You always have to test it and it's no problem if someone thinks: Huh? That's weird. Well lets just put it in the closet and we'll see and then when it happens: oh. But they didn't test anything and only told him to shut up and not talk nonsense. They didnt know in 1937 that there was oil before the coast of Norway. They found it around 1970. That old woman from Valdres in 1968 also said a lot of things that have now happened and she gave it to an evangelist and he was like: hm and put it in the closet. Only when it did happen 30 years later he let others see it.

I have no idea what you're trying to say there. Sorry.

Even if that is so, it doesn't make anything about it be a prophesy.

And the wording you gave us--a direct quote--which I was working from doesn't say that oil would be discovered under the sea near Norway.

Then too, if this was supposed to be a prophesy relating to the Second Coming, it didn't apply to the people who heard it, since it's been almost 90 years and still no Second Coming..

Fair point. I read it as Messy being in the corner that the prophet was wrong, but maybe clarification there would be useful.

Many brethren simply are not aware that spiritual manifestations, the supernatural, is a real phenomenon. Try the spirits John said.

That only goes to show how much of a lowly person you are, thinking you can deter people away from God's Truth that I reveal in His Word by bearing 'false witness' against me as an individual.

In order for me to response to a question by someone like you, I must first have to 'value' what you said. Here's a shocker for YOU: I DO NOT VALUE ANYTHING YOU SAY!
