God always sends warnings before He passes judgement. Trying to save as many as possible!
If you look back at this past year and all the extreme weather events that took place and are taking place, one must seriously consider Revelation of Jesus Christ.
While the motive may have been and probably is pure intended, it is a dangerous practice to declare some type of judgment like this as it only adds fuel to the skeptic fire when here we are up and going as a nation still.

Now it IS biblical to be general.. if you don't Repent, than the nation will be destroyed; but it's not wise to tie it with certain events. They'll get the point when it happens eventually.

Of course it would be beautiful to see our country and leaders Repent remembering our Judeo-Christian roots of this country and foundation for Law, but I do not see that happening as the majority have chosen Humanism (Obama's a Socialist Humanist) over God. One nation under God? Not if we do not want to be under God, and what a shame that is.

I noticed the areas impacted by Sandy voted for Obama in both elections. I noticed New Orleans was a vile and sinful place. I noticed the tornado that hit Alabama a few years ago mostly hit the parts of Tuscaloosa where you buy drugs and sex and most crimes were committed.

I know many will say if it's God then way did good people get hurt as well. All I can say is if you move to Sodom don't expect not to have your wife turned to a pillar of salt!

On earth, the witness is Spirit, water and blood and these agree as one.

If in fact you understand that in days past, when judgement was rendered and peoples were destroyed, God sent out his faithful servants to preach and teach others regarding the impending judgement, such as Noah.
Today that same thing is happening. His people are sounding out the warning. (Matthew 24:14) And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come.
Though we are living in the time of the end, the true Almighty God Jehovah, will not destroy any before the warning is sounded.
Remember Jericho. They were outside the walls sounding the warning trumpets, and only Rahab and her family were spared. Remember Nineveh ~(Jonah 1:1, 2) 1 And the word of Jehovah began to occur to Jo′nah the son of A·mit′tai, saying: 2 “Get up, go to Nin′e·veh the great city, and proclaim against her that their badness has come up before me.”
They listened and were spared. Remember Sodom and Gomorrah. Only Lot and his daughters made it out alive.
The waring of the judgement is going out today world wide and there is a bright future for those who pay attention to the ones sounding the warning...and preaching and teaching others the truth that the Bible really speaks.
(Psalm 37:10, 11) And just a little while longer, and the wicked one will be no more; And you will certainly give attention to his place, and he will not be. 11 But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth, And they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.
(Psalm 37:29) The righteous themselves will possess the earth, And they will reside forever upon it.
(Matthew 28:19, 20) Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded YOU. And, look! I am with YOU all the days until the conclusion of the system of things.”
He is not sending weather adversities to sound the warning. He is sending out faithful ones to help other come to an accurate knowledge of the truth.

Lots of clairvoyants, soothsayers and fortune tellers and astrologers in this thread. Not to mention judges.

Jesus said for them to quit looking for signs.. there will be none..He will come as a thief in the night. A thief doesn't give you a wake up call. He "surprises" you when your guard is down.

Seems the good Christian should spend his time showing the attributes of Christ (love, charity, goodness, etc). instead of the predictions he thinks the book of revelations is all about. They were the "revelations " of John..not Christ.

This post is disgusting. I can only hope that you've just brought a little bit of hell upon yourself with your hatred and lack of compassion. Not very Christian of me to wish such things on another, true, but alas, that's how I feel.

I live very near to the devastation wrought by Sandy. For you to sit there and make a mockery of their tragedy behind a pretend Christian facade--well, as I said, I believe you will be repaid, and if I were you, I'd be very worried. When what you deserve comes to you, remember that you brought it upon yourself.

Tornado Alley and Hurricane territory are focused on the Bible Belt, the most conservative, religious area of the country. The most liberal, "sinful" places in the country are rarely hit by disasters (California being an exception). World wide, the most liberal places on Earth (Western Europe, Canada, Scandinavia, etc.) basically have no disasters to speak of. Amsterdam makes Las Vegas look like Disney World. When's the last time a tornado or hurricane hit Amsterdam?

Your post is illogical and disgusting.

The picture I posted in My profile is a direct result of what I said in My Church on a Saturday before mass. I knelt before the alter and the cross turned and scolded the congregation for not standing up for Me. My words were upheld in what I said the next day. For I asked the Father did I offend you in anyway, shape or form in what I said in My Church. Immediately the Smile from Heaven with the Face of God showed up.That is how I know Hurricane Sandy was a warning before final judgement is passed.

Wouldn't it just be easier and alot more clear for God to just write "I'm coming back soon!" in the clouds rather than kill people and break things with a storm that fundamentalists dispute the meaning of and some scientists blame on global warming? It seems in alot of religions, the gods can't be bothered to come up with honest feedback and instead just throw weather around and people later say they were "obvious" signs. At least in the God of the Bible actually told people specifically what he was going to do most of the time rather than send some big storm before some other big event and say "you should have known this was going to happen!" ;p

God has been speaking all the long, but do people listen?
