Oh no, not the Tyson whole grain breaded patties! The end is surely nigh.
But seriously, ransomnote, I'm not exactly hostile to the notion that the so-called "Great Sign" is of great significance, prophetically. But what on earth is possessing people to go looking for examples of purported numerology on boxes of frozen mystery meat? This is going right over the edge, it's comical, it discredits any serious discussion of prophecy pertaining to the Woman of Revelation.
A lot of people are going off the rails and are going to be embarrassed and sorely disappointed to be dead wrong on the one hand, while simultaneously discrediting the fulfillment of Biblical prophecy on the other hand.
This is not good.
Uh....the whole grain breaded patties....this sounds like a Saturday Night Live skit “Find the Pope in the Pizza.”
Aren’t those people “always with us”? They take everything to the max, everything is a conspiracy. How might one who is serious “speak” of their thoughts in public if we must be wary of carnivorous numerologists? There’s nothing in the bible about food stuffs containing codes. MIght we try to restrict “normal” discussions of possible signs to bible verse comparisons and in so doing, avoid condiments and side orders too?
Some celebrity’s wife died. Nutso people “confronted” the actor, accusing him to his face of killing his wife (no evidence required). The “confirmation” of this theory cited by the accuser? “See, look how shocked he looked!” Like no normal bereaved husband would be shocked to be accused of murder! This was on FR. Those people are always with us, not just the current discussion. Yes, they poison the well. I don’t think we have to avoid reasonable discussion because of them; I think we can compare biblical sources and where breaded patties lack them, choose which to listen to. I don’t like it when an Aryan Nation creep says something hideous and others look at me and say, “Well, there’s your spokesperson” because I am conservative. In the same vein, looking for spiritual signs in food doesn’t necessarily have to be taken for standard Christianity.
