How many people have noticed a red moon latley? I'm not talking about the
redish/yelloish moon of the harvest, I'm talking about a red moon. The last few months I've noticed quite a few of these. Jesus foretold of profound signs in the heavens. If we see them, we should acknowledge them as end-time warnings.

Joel 2:31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.



Since the Creation, God made the sun and the moon "for SIGNS and for seasons" (Gen 1:14). ph34r.gif

I just made a post about this a few days ago in Sightings I think. I saw the blood red/crimson Moon on the 31st of December 2002 (NYE).
Ashley-Star*Child
Oh yeah there was also an eclipse that month too. The post is called 'Blood Red Moon'.

I checked out your post! Very neat. I guess we are talking about the same things. It being relavent to God, that's why I posted mine here. Hope we didnt step on each other's toes. tongue.gif

I've seen a red moon many times. Every few years actually. Its like a cycle...

Pollution in the atmosphere. That is what causes it. A red moon actually happens a lot. It you don't look at the moon much it will come as a supprise to you. They are usually low in the sky. The other day I was watching the full moon rise and it was red and huge. It was an effect of the atmosphere. Once it was high in the sky it was normal. rolleyes.gif

I agree. And yes I have seen a bloody moon a year ago. Got it on tape too!
But people think that just because it is caused by natural effects that God
has nothing to do with it. When is this going to end? Since in judaism, a
bloody moon is a sign for wars, and bad things that happen. Now, if a
bloddy moon falls on of their feast days, they consider it REAL bad.
So, if there is a bloody moon on... lets say Rosh Hashana, then it could
mean that the world is going to end. Now, I believe in the Bible, so I don't
believe that the world is going to end. I believe that the age of humanity will
end, and those who accepted their Lord as their Creator go to heaven.
Now, I also believe in the Bible UFO connection. And these aerial vehicles
have the power to manipulate our orbit, moon, sun, comets, and planets.
These vehicles were described as clouds in the Old Testament. In the
New Testament Jesus fortells His 2nd coming to the earth. The Bible states
that the moon will look like blood, and the sun will be darkened, and then
shall the sign of the Son of man be revealed in the sky.

Ps 68:17-18
17The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of thousands; the Lord is among them as in Sinai, in the Holy Place.
18You have ascended on high, you have led captivity captive; you have received gifts among men, even from the rebellious, that the LORD God might dwell there.
(NKJ)

Ps 104:2-5
2Who cover Yourself with light as with a garment, who stretch out the heavens like a curtain.
3He lays the beams of His upper chambers in the waters, who makes the clouds His chariot, who walks on the wings of the wind,
4Who makes His angels spirits, his ministers a flame of fire.
5You who laid the foundations of the earth, so that it should not be moved forever,
(NKJ)

With science, we take 10 steps forward and then the superstitious and followers of ancient bronze-age mythology try to drag us back 9 steps! People, all revealed organized religion is nothing but mythology and detrimental to mental stability. whistling2.gif

Although I don't quite agree with Beowulf's post...I must admit that i see blood red moons quite a bit. At least once a month or so. It's not at all unusual and i seriously doubt the end is nigh
green_dude777
Everyone, no more need to study any ancient texts anymore. No need to do any searching of what the ancients believed because Beowulf just cleared it all up for us. Thank you Beowulf, for your supreme wisdom in the field of ancient culture and history. Also, I just love how supreme your wisdom is that you don't even need evidence to back up your claim of all organized religion being "detrimental to mental stability" and "all organized religion is nothing but mythology". At least all the "nutcases" I know that believe in an ancient text take the time to come up with a real argument with references to something written. They don't just say an opinion and expect everyone to take it as truth, they get a reference. So please, the next time you want to tell people something is detrimental to their health, at the very least you can give a legit argument on why you think so.

So everytime the moon is red and we have an eclipse of the sun or a valcano explodes the end of the world is here . Gee that must mean the earth has ended a thousand times over since that was written.
I am a religous person, but I still look to science for explanations in the phyical world.

"So everytime the moon is red and we have an eclipse of the sun or a valcano explodes the end of the world is here . Gee that must mean the earth has ended a thousand times over since that was written."


LOL. It simply is a warning that the end is near. Not that the end is here!! wink2.gif

Universal Absurdity
The moon often turns red when passing through the earth's shadow, this happens quite often, only when alignment is just right do we get an eclipse of the moon (the earth's full dark shadow, by the time it gets to the moon is just barely big enough to create a shadow) any other time the moon is passing through the earth's shadow- not quite in the middle- it gets a red hue to it. This happens at least once every lunar cycle

The attached image is a composite of a lunar eclipse, notice that the moon is red before it is completely enveloped by earth's shadow (it never really goes all black, only darker shades of red)
Ashley-Star*Child
Yes, I have seen 'red' Moon's before, but they are orangish. This wasn't, and neither was it dark, this was luminous with not a tinge of orange. I'm talking about CRIMSON red. Now, I'm not saying it has never happened before (though I have never seen it and I look at the Moon alot), or that it is absolutely set in stone that that is the sign of the end. BUT, it IS possible. Not just because of that but because of everything else that is happening.

I don't have a problem with science btw, I love biology and genetic research and yes by hobby of astronomy, which may not be NASA standard but that's not going to stop me from my interest in it. But I believe that science only sees things from a human point of view. It's not to say they are wrong (although in some cases they have been), I just think there's more to it. That and, I believe that God created everything, in one way or another. Not everything can be explained, even with science. If everything COULD be explained, wouldn't it take the mystery out of everything? The world would be kinda dull if it was...

..... dontgetit.gif Are you serious?

Ok, you just said that the Bible says:

Ok, with that understood where does that bible passage say:
QUOTE

Not everytime the moon turns that colour, just once. It says that God will re-appear one of these times that the moon is red.
Unorthodox Thesis
mmm. did I write that?
I said that the Hebrews consider it to be a sign that the end of the world is coming. And, yes I'm serious. However, it may not be caused by
natural causes when it really happens, because God would want us
to know when its really going to end. my suspicion is..... ufos!

damn mayans laugh.gif always ruining someone elses theory laugh.gif i for one personally don't believe that because if the mayans can predict thats far into the future why couldn't they predict their not so distant end? the most advanced people can't look twenty years ahead to save themselves...

well the mayans predicted from astronomy, and pinpointing astonimical (?) events in the future. it wasnt a crystal ball type deal.

Excuse me strangelove, but I have never called you a moron. I don't like you calling me a moron. disgust.gif

In my religion we spend a lot of time looking at the moon. It is a part of our faith. It represents the Goddess and has a lot of power.
What a red moon means to me is that there is too much pollution in the air and we are poisoning our Mother Earth. So I guess I will concede on that one it is a warning of the end of the Earth, but by our own hand.

I am sorry. Sometimes I let my fervor get the best of me. I will edit the remark. I get tired of people trying to proove the Bibles errancy with incorrect asumptions. I love it when people do send my mind for a trip when something that makes sence to me shows what appears to be an errancy! That thread that was locked that I made a while back where Beowulf posted all those still has me researching! But, again I am sorry I resorted to such a mindless insult. Just goes to show I am not as classy as I'd like to be. sad.gif

Because the verse says that the end will come when that happens. Not everytime it happens. In other words, when the end comes the moon will be red and sun black. Look at it that way.

Wow! Isnt that strange, I found this topic on page THIRTEEN of spirituality and skeptisism. An unlucky number for some....Ive seen the red moon too but in my belief it does not mean the end of the world. Its a very magical symbol for me.

wooohaaa jesus is on his way lol but when he really comes all christains can scream and shout and we can finaly say jesus victory is ours
Diebytheflyguy
If your religous, why would you need to shout to those who do not believe in god "victory is ours." Isn't your faith enough? Would Jesus want you to do this to those who do not believe?

Deadly Nightshade
My point exactly!
Im sick of christians preaching at me just because I dont believe in their god.They judge me as being evil for this but everyone has their own beliefs. I have a very strong faith but I dont go shouting it from the rooftops, I dont feel the need to do this. Many christians, however do feel the need otherwise they wouldnt walk around in public, with banners and such, trying to convert everyone.
Ask yourself this question:
If christians go around with banners saying Jesus saves and going around posting leaflets through our letterboxers such as "jesus loves you"etc etc, then are they not trying to reassure themselves of this existence???
As, I said, the moon , the stars, the sun etc are all part of the world so how can it be that this is a sign of the end of the world?

Jesus was meant to forgive our sins. If he comes again, he will do the same. God is ever forgiving. We as humans were given the gift to reason, and search for our own truth. In other words, God allows us to steer away from him and his teachings. Even if we don't believe in him, in the end he will forgive us. (At least this is what was taught to me)
You don't sound like a christian to me. Your purpose is to be good on earth. This goodness does not judge those who don't believe in God, and your not meant to shut us out. Its funny, you say your a believer in God, but you don't follow his teachings.

why would jesus love you skeptics if you would read the bible you would see that he dosent like non belivers

So. You're saying Jesus will be departing from the 'Planet' that's close to the sun soon? Can't wait to meet him, i hear the guy is a party animal.
