Like you, I have no idea what God is going to do - but I do not pretend that I might.
I’m going to be so glad when the selfie fad ends. I just hope it takes Twitter with it.
Nothing made by man is going to remain:
But the day of the Lord will come, unexpectedly, like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up. Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, what sort of people ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness,…
He won’t allow images of false Gods to exist....many scriptural references including the 10 commandments indicate this! So I by faith believe God can not be false to his word and his glory! So I won’t “pretend”, I’ll declare by faith that all false Gods and images and statues of such will be cast down. God will send the image of the Beast to the Lake of Fire, Revelation declares this! The only image God will allow is the image of his son Jesus Christ shining out from the hearts of his children! Vanities that enflame the lusts of the flesh, the lust of eyes and the pride of life will also be done away with!
“He won’t allow images if false Gods to exist.”
You are seriously misquoting the Ten Commandments.
God tells us not to make graven images. He does NOT say He will stop us from making them. We follow the Commandment of our own free will.
No kidding.
I yelled at some teenagers in the Air and Space Museum once as they were scratching paint off the nose of Flak Bait (B-26 Marauder and the high-mission bomber in the ETO). I don’t think they’d ever been reprimanded before.
One of the “adults” with them (I won’t use the word “parent”) was over looking at the P-51, turned around and started coming towards me with a glare on his face. Luckily a docent popped up and said “thank you” to me. Certainly defused what was going to be a tense confrontation.
I’ve found out over the years that I’m not alone in yelling at kids for doing that. Thankfully she’s out a Dulles being restored (sympathetic preservation, actually) but the damage a few decades worth of kids did to her is going to be hard to repair.

First rub therm with catnip.
...and tuna!
Yes. All idols will be destroyed. There’s much to be learned from the Prophets, Joshua through Malachi.
Why wouldn’t Michaelangelo’s David exist? He’s not a god.
Awwww!
LOL!
One of the Ten Commandments offers a clue.
Not a great movie but he sure is nice to look at.
The world’s current state of vanity makes the court of Louis 14th look Mother Theresa’s nunnery.
