Posting multiple definitions of a phrase in other languages is not a superstition or fallacy.
That's quite a stretch.
Of course it is.

It's a fallacy, it's superstitious, and it's logically absurd.

The reason more people aren't arguing about it... is because it's too absurd to bother about.
It's ridiculous.

The dilemma lies with those who support him.
Those of who didn't, our conscience is clear.
We have no dilemma... we're fine and calm.

You're the one who wants to argue, after the fact.
It's too late.
He's elected.
Try a long walk and some quiet time... maybe yoga, camomile tea, a nice warm bath.

Maybe you need a puppy.
Do you have a puppy to snuggle?
I think it will help.

Judgment for what? Existing? Most of those people who have their homes destroyed had nothing to do with anything you're talking about. I bet if it was your house it burned down. You wouldn't be sitting here. Talking about it was God's judgment
Jesus told the world when He came the first time that the only sign this evil and adulterous age would get would be the sign of Jonah. He was in hell for three days and He rose again. That was the sign of Jonah. In addition the gospel of repentance for the kingdom of the heavens was preached throughout Israel for 40 years to the day from when He said this and then they were destroyed. That also is the sign of Jonah.

But in 70 AD when the temple and Jerusalem were destroyed it caused all the Christians to be dispersed and so the gospel of repentance was sent out to the whole Earth. This preaching went on for 40 jubilees which is 1,961 years.*. Add that to 70 AD and you get 2031 and sure enough we will have Armageddon. Anyone who has rejected the Messiah as Lord of all will be judged for rejecting Him.


*The way you count years is every seven years is a week of years. After seven weeks of years the next year which is also the first year of the 8th week is a jubilee year. So it is 50 years. However, 2 jubilees is not 100 years it is 99 years and 3 jubilees is 148 years. 40 jubiless is 40x7+1 = 1961.

And none of that equates to God burning down innocent people's houses as you're saying
Do you think the entire state of California is atheist? How do you know some of those peoples whose homes were destroyed weren't Christian?

Yes, we have told people all this stuff is vanity, it will all burn. This is the Lord's mercy. Very few people have died, basically those who absolutely refused to let go of their house. The Lord is telling people they must repent and all this will burn up and is vanity.

The difference was like the difference between the night and the day. The first saga was about the clear choice so that there is no excuses before the throne. Now the plotline of the new saga will be making the most of the blessings. Let us remember to praise Jesus, he has given our generations a chance, but we're not totally out of the woods yet, but there is a chance, there is a path narrow as it may be.

I guess I missed the verse in the Bible where it says God will burn my house down for being vain.
But the fact that you think people deserve to have their houses burned down over "vanity" shows me just how mentally unhinged you really are

You missed this verse?

Ecclesiastes 1:2 Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity.

What about these?

Job 1:13 And there was a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house: 14 And there came a messenger unto Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them: 15 And the Sabeans fell upon them, and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. 16 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. 17 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made out three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have carried them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. 18 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house: 19 And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.

Surely you didn't miss this one:

Matthew 10:37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.

The verse in Ecclesiastes is just Solomon being existential.

The story in Job doesn't say anything about people having their houses burned down for being vain.

The quote from Jesus doesn't say anything about burning people's houses down either.

If you think people deserve to have their houses burned down for vanity then you need to be checked for sociopathy

Hey, I'm just being existential when I say all things are vanity and that all these things will go up in a puff of smoke.
