Sign of the Last Days
by Fisherman inin the sermon on the mount, jesus foretold that earthquakes “in one place after another” would be part of the sign of the last days clímaxing in the great tribulation.. what could jesus possibly have meant?
using a phone app nowadays, there are earthquakes detected in one place after another but is this what jesus meant and did they have so many earthquakes throughout the centuries affter his prophecy or are these modern day detected earthquakes unique to this epoch?
how can we be sure unequivocally that modern day earthquakes are part of the sign fulfilling bible prophecy?.

Earthquakes? It had been happening on Earth since billions of years ago....
Yeah, yeah ...some geological epochs are more active than others. However geological times goes by millions and millions of years, and as I read somewhere else earthquakes are necessary (specially near tectonic boundaries)...if not Earth would become flat with no mountains at all.
As for sign of the times, the huge ones in San Andreas or Cascadia could happen in a couple of minutes or in a 300 years span or more, who knows?

Top AI inventor Geoffrey Hinton reluctantly concluded that AI will probably humanity fairly soon
by slimboyfat ingeoffrey hinton, major inventor of artificial intelligence: .
“if you take the existential risk seriously, as i now do—i used to think it was way off, but now i think it’s serious, and fairly close—it might be quite sensible to just stop developing these things any further, but i think it’s completely naïve to think that would happen.
there’s no way to make that happen.

Hailstone message.....June 23 WT
by mikeflood innew jun 23 wt....elders to follow gideon example, even if instructions doesn't seems practical, gideon reduced army by 99 % and he obeyed, it could be changes in theocratic direction similar to this.
what that means?.
elders will need the courage to follow instructions "may relate to delivering a symbolic hailstone message...".. in another section "major world events may raise some from spiritual slumber".

It's kind of official : "How we will respond if we are asked to preach a hard-hitting judgement message and unbelievers oppose us?"
It is a quote from WT July 2023....so the Borg is preparing the RF for a final message and then perhaps.... they're going to stop preaching

Just wait until GB 3.0 is fully in charge.... I'll bet $ 100 that is gonna be nu-light (remember Anna the prophetess in the NT and Deborah the judge in the OT), and presto, women would at least MS !
There's no way the could fill the ranks of elders and MS without women!
