Absolute Certainty

[YoursTrue]

Exactly. Which means the certainty is NOT 100%. It is not absolute. Just very close to such.

That small percentage makes a rather large difference. Or can make a rather large difference, I should say.

That Prophecy was quoted as being fulfilled in the early to mid 1800's.A Web search can confirm how and why people thought this.

The end of the old world of things gave birth to the new world order which now is unfolding.

All knowledge being released does not mean that we automatically have the capacity to embrace it.

Big topic though. All the best.

Yes, but as I see world events unfolding I keep thinking we're very close to the ensuing kingdom and fulfillment that have been foretold. So many people pray Let Your Kingdom Come, but don't have any idea what it means.

That is Absolutely Certain

There are indeed a lot of things we can not have absolute certainty about.

There are some we can. What is most Absolute Certain, is this body we are in will die and disperse and at times disperse as not intended.

Regards Tony

That's neat, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with your OP.

Well, I guess if a person knows he has a body and mind, he knows he exists. But then I guess some people exist but don't know they are existing.

Except..... do you really? You cannot rule out being a Brain in a Vat, or a Program Sim running on some fantastically complex computer.

 

[Bob the Unbeliever]

Thank you. I am sure we have our differences, especially in that all knowledge has been released. There is more to come. Things we do not know now. Jesus Christ said that the good news would be preached in all the inhabited earth, and then ... Let us see what Jesus said at Matthew 24:14:
"And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come."
.

Yes, yes... christians have been saying that since .... the year One? Or something. Maybe the year ~300ish, when the Real Bible© was finally put together by fractuous committee? (what a way to run a religion....)

The end is coming -- and then there are to be new heavens and a new earth. Quite different than it is now. Because righteousness is to be there throughout. (Revelation 21:1-5)

Again-- that's what they said in the year 500. And 750. And 1000. And 1001. And 1500. And again in 1978. And 1980. And 1984. And 1990-something. And, Loudly, In 2000.

What makes YOUR claim different from THEIR claims that did not pan out?

 

[Bob the Unbeliever]

Yes, but as I see world events unfolding I keep thinking we're very close to the ensuing kingdom and fulfillment that have been foretold. So many people pray Let Your Kingdom Come, but don't have any idea what it means.

That's what they said in 500CE. And 750. And 1000. And 1100. And 1500... in fact? People have been saying that since Constantine's cantankerous, and seldom unanimous committee fabricated the Original Official Bible™ in around 300.

What makes YOU different from THEM? What do YOU "know" that they obviously did not?

 

[Bob the Unbeliever]

Yes, but as I see world events unfolding I keep thinking we're very close to the ensuing kingdom and fulfillment that have been foretold. So many people pray Let Your Kingdom Come, but don't have any idea what it means.

Yeah.... they've been praying that since Jesus flew back up into the clouds, that one time...

... they were .... wrong. Every time, they have been wrong. Has to be... 100's of times being Wrong since then.

Hmmmm..... I'm seeing a Trend here... and it's not looking good for you.

Or the dream of someone. Perhaps 'your' consciousness isn't yours at all. It may belong to someone else.

Little do we know when we are infants. Ideas are introduced. It depends on the person.
