Why all the doomsday prepping if your a Christian?

[fox1]

Not every Christian is a Pre-Trib Christian. Hard times are coming, read Matthew 24.

Thought i was alone. LOL

Thought i was alone. LOL

and not all Christians are a pre-trib, mid-trib, or even post-trib!

carry on.

I'm a Christian, but i also prep... i'm not scared of dying. But who said it will be my time i would hate to have a situation where i don't prepare then my family that God trusted me with suffers... Genesis 41:48 Joseph was a prepper...

Yes I'm a Christian but that doesn't mean I'm going down without a fight. I'm not paranoid just prepared.

When Ike hit the Galveston, Boliver, Houston etc area, there were a lot of people without power for weeks. Super Storm Sandy, power failures, Katrina and the aftermath/riots etc., the possibility of a terror attack.....

Yeah, no reason whatsoever to prepare for anything.....

When I talked to my neighbor about the "Zombie Apocalypse" he thought it was a joke too. Until I pointed at Hwy 6 and said, "Do you remember Ike?" "Do you remember Katrina and Rita and how people were acting?". Then I saw the light bulb above his head come on. THAT is who the Zombies are.

It's not about being prepared for some science fiction BS, it's about being prepared for what you know full well can and probably will happen. A few days worth of food, water, fuel and a weapon to defend it and your family with is just good thinking. It has nothing to do with my Christian beliefs.

this... Ive been without power for WEEKS... now this was in the woods of northern michigan and there were no looters... us and our neighbors were "prep"ared... the "zombies" exist only in the citys (for the most part)

Do you have your groupof trusted friends to count on or just your immediate family? How far will you get?

[Epack]

dooms day doesnt nessecarily mean the apocolypse.... the country could fall apart long before the coming of god

[Keg]

I have to agree with many here....The second coming does not mean.."Don't be prepared for the US of A going belly up or some other catastrophe....." I actually have always liked to have large quantities of ammo for any gun/guns I own....I think it is a good think to have canned goods and water stored....

[BuckySWT]

Natural disasters, war, power failure, etc...prep
all of the above on a simultaneous global level...pray

I got plenty of bullets for my untrusted friends...... How about you? And I have a Big family........

The only way the USA is going to go belly up is if we cause war with Red china! They have anough people to build a bridge with there own dead bodies to walk an army across the sea onto our soil. Bottom line.....SHTF there is nothing you can do to change it! Doesn't matter how many beans or bullets you have! Its gona be HELL and if your not a Christian you will......... It's self explanatory!

There once was a old man who trusted in Christ. One day there was a HUGE flood. When his friend came by to help him evacuate he stayed in his home proclaiming, "God will save me." As the waters rose, the man went onto his roof to escape. A boat came by and asked if the man needed help. He again said, "No, God will save me." As the waters continued to inch closer to the top of his roof a helicopter came and asked if he needed help. Still, the man stayed and said, "No, God will save me." Soon the man had no more roof to stand on and fell into the rising waters and drowned. When he reached Heaven he asked, "My Lord, I waited for you to save me! Why didn't you save me?" The Lord replied, "I sent a friend, a boat, and a helicopter, what else did you expect me to do?!?!"

We all must die someday! It's all in how you wish to die. Sounds like the old man on the roof had FAITH!

LOL. I started to post this same joke a couple days ago but didn't. To me, it shows the difference between the two "ends" that we have to prepare for.

Man-made disasters(war, power outages, economy falling-out) probably aren't what the bible was referring to when it said times would get really tuff. Wouldn't it have been nice to have a 10 year stock pile before the great depression happened? I'm sure plenty of folk in France had a bit of regret for not prepping for the German invasion.
