[Granite]

Well, we haven't destroyed ourselves. Yet.

 

[Nathon Detroit]

We live to fight another day!

 

[Nathon Detroit]

Obama got a serious "beat down".

 

[chickenman]

Jesus Christ died for your sins, and was raised back to life. By truly believing that good news, we can be placed into Christ, where we will forevermore be judged according to His righteousness.

 

[Nathon Detroit]

The good news is... Chickenman is here to deliver the REAL good news.

He is?? When did the little fella die?

:chicken: :dead:

This is supposed to be GOOD news!!

 

[Ktoyou]

tasty!

 

[Nick M]

John Boehner does not believe Obama should be printing money from thin air. He voted for the original bailout, but has since repented of such votes. That is good news.

 

[Lighthouse]

He is?? When did the little fella die?

:chicken: :dead:

This is supposed to be GOOD news!!

It is good news, because now he can fill someone's belly!

 

[The Graphite]

Well, we haven't destroyed ourselves. Yet.

Actually, yes, we have. However:

Jesus Christ died for your sins, and was raised back to life. By truly believing that good news, we can be placed into Christ, where we will forevermore be judged according to His righteousness.

 

[Granite]

Actually, yes, we have.

Uhhh, well, right back at ya: no, we haven't. Two can play at that game. When we finally go crazy with the bomb or punch a hole in the earth or above it that can't be patched, then it's gonna be a different story.

And in the realm of actual good news...hmmm...

My sister's fallen in love with a great guy.

I'm afraid it's much worse than you realize, Granite. Because of the wicked, reckless, heartless, destructive sin of the human race, this entire earth will be burned up, consumed in a purging fire. It's unavoidable, whether we like it or not.

But, the good news is... there will be a new earth!

More bad news is that, while Hell was created for the angels who rebelled, it has now been filling up with millions and billions of human beings, so much so that it has actually enlarged, as if to accommodate the numbers.

But, the good news is... there will be a new heaven, as well. And any who repent of their sin (the very sin that will lead to the destruction of the whole world) may be reconciled to their Creator and have a home in that heaven, forever and ever.
