And 2,000 years from now people get to read about the persons, families, places, treaties, kindness, corruption, wars, famine, pestilence, love, hatred, blessings, curses, and on and on in 2020.
Would they "look back" on us and say, That's a bunch of baloney. That never happened?

Why do you think that Mark? I haven't heard about anybody turning water into wine or coming back from the dead. What will be hard to believe about our lives in 2000 years?

I am sure Mr June has a valid point that we all should consider. The wise man knows history repeats itself. Yet we as mankind think we are just to dang smart to let anything bad happen. Or stuff we don't want to happen we can control. Try as we might we just can't control so much in this world. I am sure history will only be believed by some, not all. Some will claim it never happened. I seen it in my short time on this earth.

2,000 years from now there might not be a here. I bet they thought the same 2000 years ago.
Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

To be clear, I am 100% in the camp that the Bible has been completed as revealed.
My question is we face interesting happenings each century and we all think that they are "unique" to now. But are they?
C-19? The "pandemic" that has gripped our present world in 10 months. Will it be on a radar of radars in 2 millennia?

yep. just like the spanish flu and the 1968 A (H3N2) flu. it will be like that in a few years Maybe the CIA and FBI could put pressure on Fang Fang, (Christine Fang) the Chinese spy they say "got close" to politicians in the news now, and see if she can tell us what virologists in China are conjuring. She probably has friends she works with who've been partying with CIA'ers and FBI'ers in the name of diversity training.

It will be barely a blip compared to most plagues in world history, I would guess.

Mark, Where do you fall in End times theory? Is Jesus putting everything right quickly at the end or is it a progressive thing where even though things look bad, the gospel actually continues to gain ground until all enemies are under his feet? Are you partial preterist or pre trib or what?

Well some stuff really is a threat. Like distrust in the integrity of an election or government officials talking about disarming "free" people.

If I come to campus or the hospital tomorrow and some are gone..... and I'm still here..... whatabboutmeLord? Too late. I'm pre-millennial on that occurrence as well. Over and over and over He gives blessed opportunities as He calls. Here it comes..... But, remember Ecclesiology is not the Gospel
