Invest in Mars?
 
A local evangelist held a meeting at the West Side YMCA recently in which he explained that the Lord told him we would soon all be living on Mars. He said the Lord spake unto him when he was flying from NY to LA for a rally against further gun control legislation.


"You will not need guns on Mars," the man said. "Jesus Himself will be living there and will protect you. But how can you be assured of space on the Red Planet?"


He then went on to explain that he is selling tracts of prime building space - some of which are being improved right now - and that the wise Christian would invest now in order to have a piece of the new Heaven that Christ has ordained on Mars. At $239,999 for one acre it sounds like a steal, but for only $500,000 you can be guaranteed a lot on the same street that Jesus is building on.


Naturally, I was skeptical, but not completely unconvinced. Some have accused me of not thinking things through, but is there anyone here who can dispute this evangelist's claim?

This suspiciously sounds like some kind of scheme promoted by the Mormon church, BrotherLarry - they promise that we all can get our own planets. I wouldn't be supriesed that if you dig deeper you might find Mitt Romney is behind that "investment" scam.

Mitt Romney recently voted against our president Donald Trump in his efforts to secure our borders - no doubt wanting to send that money to Mars instead of MAGA.

Now if someone was advocating sending the world's known troublemakers (socialists, communists, mooselimbs, Democrats, Hellywood elites, RINO's, etc.) to Mars, I would seriously entertain the idea of using the money for the border wall to accomplish it - perhaps even getting Elon Musk involved.

Yes, dearest Brother - God Himself can dispute it.

"Planets" are nothing more than wandering specs of light that God has hung on the firmament for His own amusement, and which will fall down to Earth when God will remodel the world:

Dear Brother Uncle Larry,

I hope you are well and that your skin rash is better? I said a special prayer for you! Mommy says I can answer this.

Sister Basilissa already said that the "stars" will fall down to Earth when God :pray2: tells them to. So even if this was a True offer and not some very bad men trying to cheat you, then your star-land would be destroyed when it hit the Earth. Not with brimstone and fire like Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 19:24) but just kind of smashed, like when you drop a light bulb on the floor and get in trouble. Plus, any houses you had built on it would be destroyed, if they did not fall off on the way down. So I would not trust this person. But I am only 10 years old and a girl.

With best love and prayers,
Hannah L-V

I am so grateful to all of you for your time and insight. I would no more support a Mormon cause than a demoncrap one. Why are there so many charlatans out there?

And dear Hannah I hope you’re doing well today and your schoolwork is kept up. Won’t you give your big brothers a hug from me? Be sure it is a big slow long hug as they are very special to me. Of course you are the best of all.

Please also give Mum my love and remind her of my planned UK ministry tour in April when your Daddy is in Scotland.

Uncle loves you!!!!

This picture confuses me a little bit because we move around the sun. And it says "Moves" And the Earth says "in-movable"

Quite wrong. Below is a computerized graphical representation of the sun and moon revolving around the Earth as created by Brother Bathfire at the LBC University of Christianity and Biblical Proofs.

Scoutman: The proof above should be all you need to settle your mind about this matter. It is kind of rude to interject yourself into a conversation about important financial investments to ask a question about something that ANY true scientist can ascertain through a thorough reading of scripture and the writings of Professor Dr. Elmer White. In fact, in White's 2011 investigatory writings concerning the firmament, he writes: "It is apparent that the sun moves about...and prior theories are hereby disproven." (p. 292) He adds an illustration very similar to the one above just in case skeptics doubt the facts.


While I have not seen the holdings of Landover University due to restrictions on access, I have seen pictures and they are very convincing. You probably wonder why these things have not been released to the general public. Well, we want people to READ THE BIBLE, which is the ultimate answer book about everything.


Yes, the firmament is in there. You know what else is in there?


JESUS IS COMING SOON. (Rev. 22:12) BE READY.

Under the words "moves" and "immovable," do you see some letters and numbers? They refer to specific verses in the Bible, and if you find these verses, you will discover (spoiler alert!) that the Bible does, indeed, say that Sun revolve around the Earth and the Earth is immovable.

Please, do not trust me on this - read the Word of God by yourself:

Ok, to everyone getting on me about my comment, there is a thing called NASA and cameras.





Or you can see it from a plane.:thumbsup: I don't mean to be rude (If this is rude at all)

Two things: (1) it is rude to post pictures so enormous that they break the flow of the thread and (2) it is dumb not to use the search function before making a fool of yourself.

How do I know the first picture is not a computer simulation, and regarding the second picture, I've been looking at the dotted line until my eyes began to hurt, and it is still straight. Not curved. :innocent:

You are so close. Did you know, if you look down, it can appear far away and if you look up at a star( diamond in the sky) you can almost touch one. Jump and see if you can!


It is all about perspective. For example, where we see good in people, you see bad.


Here is an actual photo as taken by our very own Pastor Ezekiel Flint that gave to me when I turned 60, one year after my wife, Mrs. Hutchins was gone.

So easy to understand, even a child or woman or Nigra could understand it! :thumbsup:

What two words does everyone hate to hear on this forum?
The answer? "You're wrong."

um, but she's right. You guys are just as bad as liberals. Yall ignore the facts, and instead of telling people you don't like that they're racist or a bigot, you guys tell them to go to hell! You guys in one sentance: "I'm triggered by your own opinion so shut up."

Sweetie, please, don't shoot the messenger. That's what we are, just messengers of the World's Best Message, which are God's Own Words as written in the Holy Bible.

If you don't like what we say, that means you don't like what the Bible says, and that means you don't like what God says.

Natural question arises: why do you hate God? :(

Can't hate something I don't believe in. It's just the hate you people spew and force it upon other people I have a problem with. Should I show some pictures?

Are you mad at something? This is not the place to solve your problems. This is a place of worship, where we show our devotion to our God.
Are you willing to worship our God? If so, start tithing. If don't, please leave. It is rude to stay in a place uninvited and breaking every single rule of said place.
Why do you hate us so much? Because we believe in something you cannot understand? It is not our fault, please take it on God for making you this way.


I will be praying for you!
