all seasons alike in last days |

Question for all you Bible scholars. Is there a verse of scripture that says
in the last days you cannot tell one season from another? thanks |

No. Quite the opposite, actually.
Genesis 8:22 wrote: | As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease. |

Nope |
Is there one for country preachers having conversations with themselves?

Countrypreacher, once upon a time when I was a young woman, I rented a room from an elderly lady. She was familiar with the scripture in which God promised Noah after the flood that "[w]hile the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease." (Genesis 8:22.) However, my landlady went beyond what was actually said and assumed that "the end" might be preceded by a little mixing up of the cold and heat and the summer and winter. Whenever the weather varied from the norm, she would always say something to the effect of "It's unusual weather we've been having." Left unsaid, but hanging heavy in the air, was the thought of what such unusual weather might portend.
So I think it comes from thinking that if cold and heat and seedtime and harvest are supposed to continue to the end, when they start getting mixed up, the end must be near. To be clear, that is just extrapolating something that is NOT implied. |
