Bobus the Prophet Sits in for Jesus on the Mount of Olives


 

The Destruction of the Temple and Possible Signs of the End Times

And Bobus left the temple and was walking away when his disciples came up to him to call his attention to its buildings. “Do you see all these things?” he asked. “Possibly I tell you, could it be  one stone here will be left on another; every one possibly will be thrown down?.”

As Bobus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?”

Bobus answered: “Could you possibly be deceived? Could many  come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and possibly deceive many?6 Will you hear of wars and rumors of wars?  Might you be alarmed?  Such things could very possibly happen, but  is the end is still to come?   Could Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom? There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 Is  this the beginning of birth pains?.

“Is it possible you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and  be hated by all nations because of me? 10 Will many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other? 11 Is it possible many false prophets will appear and deceive many people? 12 Because of the increase of wickedness, could  the love of most will grow cold? 13 but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. 14 And , who knows, but  this gospel of the kingdom could possibly be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then, might the end will come?

15 “So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the possible abomination that causes desolation,’[a] possibly spoken of through the prophet Daniel—could the reader understand? — 16 Might possibly those who are in Judea flee to the mountains? 17 Will those on the housetop go down to take anything out of the house? 18 Could possibly those in the field go back to get their cloak? 19 Could it possibly be that in those days it could get dreadful for pregnant women and nursing mothers? 20 Should Christians pray their flight not be  in winter or on the Sabbath?  21 For then, quite possibly there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and possibly never to be equaled again.

22 “Will , If those days had not been cut short,  anyone survive?, Will you be among the elect for whom the days will be shortened? 23 At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘There he is!’ should  you  believe it? 24 For there is a strong possibility that false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 25 Might I be the only prophet telling you all this?.

26 “So if anyone tells you, ‘There he is, out in the wilderness,’ should you go out? or, ‘Here he is, in the inner rooms,’ should believe it? 27 For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west,  might this possibly be a sign of my coming?. 28 Wherever there is a carcass, might  the vultures  gather?

29 “Immediately after the distress of those days

“‘Will the sun will be darkened,
    and the moon will not give its light;
the stars will fall from the sky,
    and the heavenly bodies will be shaken?

30 “Then could there appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth[c] mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory.?  31  Will he send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they  gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other?

32 “Is there a lesson from the fig tree?  As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 33 Even so, when you see all these things, you might it be  that it[e] is near, right at the door.?34 Could  this generation  possibly not pass away until all these things have happened? 35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but is it possible my words will never pass away?

The Day and Hour Unknown

36 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son,[f] but only the Father. 37 Could it be  we are in the days of Noah, like at the coming of the Son of Man? 38 For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. Might this possibly be how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man? 40 Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. 41 Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left?

42 “Therefore keep watch, because, let's face it,  you do not know on what day your Lord will come. 43 But might this be something to consider: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. 44 Could the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him?

Could he who hears possibly understand?

  2. You have to read Bob's way of being a prophet. He waffles with questions about could this or that be rather than act like a classic Biblical prophet. It's his style on Cogwriter.com

    I was bored. lol

    By Bob, I think he's got it! That's the same thought I sometimes get when wading through Bob's waffle.
    The other day Bob did say he wasn't the kind of prophet that gets messages from God about things, then he waxed vague again as to what he actually thinks makes him call himself a prophet. It seemed a bit like GTA's "today's world news in light of Bible prophecy". which is just a method of analysis, not revelation.
