End Times? Texas Lake Turns Blood-Red
Live Science via Yahoo News ^ | 2 Aug 2011 | Stephanie Pappas

A Texas lake that turned blood-red this summer may not be a sign of the End Times, but probably is the end of a popular fishing and recreation spot.

A drought has left the OC Fisher Reservoir in San Angelo State Park in West Texas almost entirely dry. The water that is left is stagnant, full of dead fish — and a deep, opaque red.

The color has some apocalypse believers suggesting that OC Fisher is an early sign of the end of the world, but Texas Parks and Wildlife Inland Fisheries officials say the bloody look is the result of Chromatiaceae bacteria, which thrive in oxygen-deprived water.

As the article states, it's not surprising, given the local conditions. In the meantime, if the moon turns red, the sun becomes as black as sackcloth, and a star called Wormwood appears in the sky, I'll fret.

If the Cubs win the World Series, I'll fret.

Git a grip. The end times are here. Running out every minute. But, until Christ calls Home His Church, the Body of Christ, to meet Him in the air and the Church is GONE, nothing happens. Then the 7 years of trib start. Only then. Other wise, this is all guess work. I don’t worry about it. One way or the other, I know where I will be. And, it won’t be down here in the Trib.

We just drove through the Texas pan handle on the way to the Grand Canyon, incredibly dry, entire river beds were mere sand, bone dry. Hope they get some rain soon, they need it bad, so do we, but nothing compared to Texas ...

If you think about it, the Rapture will probably be the TRIGGER for the Tribulation.

Can you imagine a world with the Holy Spirit’s influence suddenly GONE?

Approaching eleven months of no rain here in oil patch city, SE NM. Just day after day of unrelenting sun and heat.

That's just silly. Folks are SAVED during the tribulation. How can that be if the Spirit is gone?
