Global Nuclear War
in Hell
And as for you, Capernaum, , , ,You shall be thrown down to hell.
I started reading Jewish Scriptures in 1970 and noticed many dire predictions of some kind of world-wide disaster. I gradually came to the realization that these warnings were compatible with the conditions that would result from a nuclear war. Here are some quotations in that regard:
Psalm 9:15-16
The nations have sunk into a pit of their own making,
they are caught by the feet in the snare they set themselves.
YHWH has made Himself known, has given judgment,
He has trapped the wicked in the work of their own hands.
Seems like a description of the situation the nuclear armed nations find themselves in.
Their arsenals present a grave danger, but they cannot find a way to get rid of them.
Isaiah 2:19
Go into the hollows of the rocks,
into the caverns of the earth.
at the sight of the terror of YHWH,
at the brilliance of His majesty
when He arises
to make the earth quake.
Going deep underground is the only defense against a nuclear attack.
A nuclear explosion is "brilliant" and could indeed be described as "the terror of YHWH.
Jeremiah 25:32-33
See! The disaster spreads
from nation to nation,
a mighty tempest rises
from the far ends of the world.
Those slaughtered by YHWH that day will be scattered across the world from end to end.
No dirge will be raised for them; no one will gather them or bury them; they will satyliying on the surface like dung.
A global nuclear war begins with the minor nuclear powers and spreads "from nation to nation."
"A mighy tempest rising" is a good description of ICBMs being launched.
The dead cannot be gathered because of the latent radiation of the nuclear explosions.
. .. that day will be sprung on you suddenly, like a trap. For it will come down on every living man on the face of the earth.
r. Yehoshua b. Pantera

Posted troll-style to get a rise?
Then you know nothing about the Ship.
It seems to steam round and round in circles rather a lot. And I’m guessing this is the Poop Deck.
Carry on. 😉
(Not that GNW isn't a possibility...).

For by fire will YHWH execute judgement.
Fire is a major an effect of a nuclear bomb, and it is also mentioned in Luke 12:49
Alan, I don't think that your scenario leaves the dead scattered across the world from end to end with no one able to bury them.
Ah well - in these days of lockdown/curfew or whatever, the Devil findeth evil for idle eyes to read...
@undead_rat, I am not a doctor, or a psychiatrist, but this obsession with nuclear war and its effects is unhealthy, to say the least. Please seek help from professionals.
I may be doing him a disservice by so thinking, in which case I apologise.
What did you want to discuss, @undead_rat ? If you can think of an actual OP that would fly in Purg, then repost it there. I can copy over any relevant posts from here at that point.

Yay. Here we go again.

Do you have any suggestions as to how to avoid what appears to be a fait accompli ?
One answer given on another thread (IIRC) seemed to be *show the authentic shroud thingy to the global nuclear powers*, though quite what that was meant to achieve, I couldn't say.
undead_rat, why the fuck aren't you buying groceries for your neighbors, or listening to an old lady, or tutoring children over Zoom or doing something useful that advances the kingdom of God?
Th' expense of spirit in a waste of air
Art thou in posting; to make readers groan,
Frustrated, ornery, all too quick to swear,
When they behold illogic that is all thine own.
Posts made no sooner than despisèd straight,
Thy meaning hunted; and, no sooner had
Past reason hated, as a swallowed bait
On purpose laid to make the taker mad.
All this the Ship well knows; yet none knows well
To shun the poster who leads men to this Hell.
Did you compose that poem? It's good, whoever did.
Looks like @undead_rat is using Hell as a Circus. 🎪
Appropriate for tedious shite you mean?
He couldn't miss the point of Jesus' universalist discourse there further.
Who knew?
That would be a natural disaster, something which can also be referred to as "An act of God." But in Genesis 8:21 YHWH promised that He would never again initiate a major world-wide disaster:
Never again will I curse the earth because of man, because his heart contrives evil from his infancy. Never again will I strike down every living thing as I have done.
Therefore, asteroid strikes, comet collisions, volcanic eruptions, etc. are eliminated from the possibility of being the cause of the disaster predicted by OT prophets.
Only one possible cause remains: man will invent the means to wipe out life on earth.
In Genesis 6:13 YHWH said:
The end has come for all things of flesh; I have decided this because the earth is full of violence of man's making, and I will efface them from the earth.
It seems that, after the Flood, YHWH decided to allow man's propensity towards violence to play out to its natural conclusion, and that conclusion is a global nuclear war.
YHWH did send a Holy Teacher to instruct us in hopes that mankind would avoid such a horrible disaster, but to no avail. Mankind murdered that Teacher and went on its merry way of increasing violence culminating in the deployment of massive arsenals of ICBMs.
We should all take into account the fact that our existence here on earth is not an end unto itself, but exists for YHWH's purpose. I believe that His purpose is to teach humans the necessity of following His holy laws: to love YHWH our god, and to love our neighbors.
The coming global nuclear war will be mankind's ultimate lesson in that regard.
I would hope that, in cooperation with the USA, Russia could force all of minor nuclear players to undergo nuclear weapons disarmament.
So basically you want to trust Russia to control the world
Vodka might become cheaper.
That is , indeed, what most of the world chooses to do.
Ah, it all makes sense. That explains the mystery of the Turin shroud.
Got a black Magic Marker
</Carlos Santana>
It was actually the extraordinary Peter Green's song, with Fleetwood Mac when they were a proper band.
But that notwithstanding, did your Black Magic Marker make a devil out of you?
You might be on to something here, mousethief. Maybe a sinister lady drew a picture of Old Nick on a shroud with a Magic Marker pen. With her left hand, naturally. Has anyone tested for that?
He really walked into that one, didn't he?
