More Than 1500 Years Ago, The Prophet Habakkuk Said. How Long How Long? (Hab 2:3)

[goodlife]

When will God destroy the wicked? If so, how much longer must we wait? Such questions are asked by people throughout the earth. Where can we find the answers? We can do so in divinely inspired prophetic words about God’s appointed time. They assure us that Jehovah will soon execute judgment upon all wicked ones. Only then will the earth become completely “filled with the knowing of the glory of Jehovah as the waters themselves cover over the sea.” That is the prophetic promise found in God’s Sacred Word at Habakkuk 2:14.

[Zacs-Master]

Define ‘soon’.

[Old_Geezer]

The wicked are being removed all the time. You won't find any of them around 200 years ago still around now.

[naomi24]

How wicked are 'the wicked' - and who are they?

[lankeela]

Who created the wicked if it wasn't god?

[naomi24]

//how much longer must we wait? //

Goodlife is anxious for the majority of the human race to be destroyed.

[sandyRoe]

Why would you want god to destroy the wicked?
What have they ever done to you?

[THECORBYLOON]

"Where can we find the answers? We can do so in divinely inspired prophetic words about God’s appointed time."

When is it going to happen then?

[naomi24]

They've got it wrong so many times, he's not going to tell you, Corby.

[THECORBYLOON]

If the prophetic words say, "soon" and that were 1,500 year ago, is it not a wee bit overdue now?

[Khandro]

lankeela ; //Who created the wicked if it wasn't god?//

Do you actually know anything at all about religion?

[Atheist]

Khandro: Which religion?

[Khandro]

Atheist, //Which religion?// any. In the Old Testament it's Satan & in the Gospels Satan tempts Jesus in the desert and is identified as the cause of illness and temptation. In the Islamic tradition, Iblis is identified with al-Shaytan ("the Devil"). The Greeks had Hades, etc, etc. There's always good & evil everywhere, so make sure you tread the right path :0)

[naomi24]

Khandro,

//There is none beside me.
I am the Lord, and there is none else.
I form the light, and create darkness:
I make peace, and create evil:
I the Lord do all these things” (Isaiah 45:6–7,//

The writers and editors were cheeky blighters - especially those who came later.

[Khandro]

n. ' In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth the Scriptures tell us that during this time Lucifer, one of the high-ranking angels serving before God’s throne, convinced a third of the angels to follow him in rebellion against God (Isaiah 14:12-15; Ezekiel 28:13-16; Revelation 12:7-9).

Because of this great battle, the beautiful earth God had created (Isaiah 45:18) became “without form, and void” (Genesis 1:2). Because of Lucifer’s rebellion, his name was changed to Satan, meaning “adversary.” His followers, fallen angels, became known as demons.' '

and I've met a few !

[perseverer]

Habakkuk dates from around 600BCE so its about 2100 years ago.

[Gromit]

He was about 600 BC. Which is 2,600 years ago.

[naomi24]

Khandro, oh good grief! Please!

[ToraToraTora]

alleluia!

[perseverer]

14.30 Sorry, better at history than sums?

[andy-hughes]

If, as the saying goes, 'God loves a trier...' then goodlife will get carried into heaven shoulder high.

For years he has plugged that JW mantra on here, to resounding indifference, occasionally mixed with hostility and awkward questions, all of which he steadfastly ignores.

Like a fly at a window, he bangs his head year in year out.

Imagine what he could do if he turned that self-belief into something anyone on here was even vaguely interested in hearing.

No chance, I know, but it's a thought ...
