Am not that much of an expert on Newton so I don’t know if you are pulling my leg, or not.

I don’t doubt he was interested in chemistry. I have a hard time believing that he was that interested in gold. Gold to him, was The Bible and the truths therein.

Wow! I will be 91. Both of us can watch together. It will be a blast I am sure.

Just get yourself a nice red giant star. However, transportations costs might pinch the profit margins.

LOL. If it’s the last day on earth; I doubt that laws will matter much. I would really like a mimosa.

Newton was also off the beam somewhat on optics.

He was Chancellor of the Exchequer. In that post he sent an hundred men to the gallows for counterfeiting.

Does Gore also base his global warming “we’re all gonna die” scenario on the same 2060 date?

Interesting.

Didn’t know he’d held that post.

But wasn’t he . . . rather disinterested in personal wealth except as it afforded him the means to study and do experiments?

Can’t say. He had a lot of free time, so he must have done all right.

Yes, it can happen quickly, more quickly than we all hope, I’m sure. I believe God WILL reveal the time to the spirit-filled believers looking for His coming. This will happen close to that time period. We don’t know now but I believe we will when the time comes. We’ll see the times approaching for sure but the Holy Spirit will not leave us foundering and wondering. There will be warnings. Love, Mxxx

I think this quote bears repeating to a lot of people behind the pulpit today:

Continuing in a decidedly sniffy tone, he wrote: "This I mention not to assert when the time of the end shall be, but to put a stop to the rash conjectures of fanciful men who are frequently predicting the time of the end, and by doing so bring the sacred prophesies into discredit as often as their predictions fail."
