How do I prepare for the literal apocalypse within my lifetime? WW3, mass famines, meteor impacts, country-wide floods (china, australia, USA will perish), solar storm-flares, etc
Do I need to learn to go literally underground in cave systems? mountaineering and sailing? What about the very possible absolute orwellian (satanic) world-wide State; how do I dodge it? erasing ALL my past history, biometric data, etc?
Should I join my country's federal police force and reserve Army corps to get proper training and legal access to good weapons and body armor?
why not just go to church?
I DO go to catholic church and Im even in the process of getting Sacramentals ,reading private revelations etc.
however God expects people to do stuff and try to thrive trough human means, not just pray...(praying is good, but it mustn't be the only thing you rely on)
My country provides basic military training to reserve Army enlisted, and in the federal police I can enlist as a firefighter -who are also allowed to buy and train with, guns and body armor-
im really considering going that route...
Why come to /k/ to ask such a ridiculous question then. It's not like you will let anyone change your mind about the future. It's not like you're looking for genuine advice. It's not like you are mentally fit enough to survive outside of an established society that excuses your psychosis, weapons and body armor or no
>praying is good but you have to do everything through human means because uhh that's what he wants
Gay moron shit
Holy frick is this reddit now? Where the frick do you people even come from?
>muh reddit
Reddit ruined this site not because redditors actually come here, but because homosexuals like you can no longer see a dissenting opinion without mentioning that place. You got buck broken by a bogeyman
no no, you may not. I DEFEND coming here.
Im looking for advice on how to survive global famine, mass disasters, supply lines and all electricity cut off, and a dictatorial world government (all at once BTW)
to which remote nature location do I go? which vehicles do I buy? (small emergency boat? learn to craft a one-person plane?) which radiation detectors and signal blockers do I need to buy?
>signal blockers
I mean stuff like this, tho
>he doesnt know im unironically in the process of being a rent-dodging squatter and learning to thrive without any stablished "utilities" at all
we are not in the same level
>we are not on the same level
And thank frick for that
>what do I need to buy
All of it. Stop paying rent, you'll need that for more gear. Stop paying your power bill because you're going to lose it anyway, at this point you're just delaying the inevitable at your own expense. Take all the money you save on rent and utilities and spend it on body armor, guns and detectors on aliexpress and then you'll be happy, surely
Enlisting and getting training is the only correct action.
If you assume it will be of biblical proportions your first reaction should be to stand by Christ and his brothers in the glorious battle against Satan and his forces of evil.
The simple fact you are even considering fleeing to survive on your own already shows you have failed to accept His message.
You should be a firefighter because that's just a good thing to do in general, if you were a Christian you'd care more about that than your selfish desires
>catholic church
Have you given them enough money to get into heaven yet?
Anon even they figured out that was moronic centuries ago
Sort of. Obviously they didn't think it was all bad because they still do it, but when it started effecting their attendance they had to do something about it. The church is like a business. They'll do whatever they can get away with until it starts to effect the bottom line
>was all bad because they still do it,
Please, ramble at me I’m bored
>The church is a business.
Ftfy.
>Indulgences are the material atonement with an understanding that one will spend less time in purgatory
So you pay the church to get into heaven FASTER.
That makes perfect sense. It's like a fast pass for the waiting line at the pearly gates.
>If you cheat on your lover, lie and steal you'll never see the signs.
Unless you say sorry and pay money.
Frankly it won’t matter in the long run.
A decade in purgatory pales to an eternity in heaven.
Like I said, the sale of them is an illegal act of simony already anyhow. They’re usually “please pray for the soul of X person” or “help a child with their catechism classes.”
> Unless you say sorry and pay money.
Money has no input on salvation.
The sacrament of reconciliation (confession) has always been free.
Please learn the theology of the Church you are trying to insult.
>The sacrament of reconciliation (confession) has always been free.
This. I always advice anons to do it instead of throwing their money away on therapists because it really just mogs the hell out of those drug-pushers.
Confession is not only free and as anonymous as you like (these days, you can usually either sit or kneel behind the veil or go behind it to speak to the priest face to face in a chair across from him, entirely on your own preference), but the priest is forbidden to tell anyone what you said in there on the threat of excommunication. The real limiter is who the priest is, some are fairly rigid and just do it "by the books" while others will actually draw upon their life experiences to advise you. My current priest used to work in my field before he went to the seminary, so he's given me a lot of advice and insight as to who I'm working for. When I was in high school, our priest then was a widower who became a priest after his wife died, so he always felt like a dad when speaking to me. He was a cool guy, his kids and grandkids always came to listen to his masses.
Therapists, in contrast to all this, are expensive, will relay everything you tell them to the government, and will probably just try to prescribe some drugs to numb your brain and keep you chemically lobotomized so you stop having a normal reaction to the state of modern society. Honestly, why not just try talking to the confidential old guy for free first and see if he can't help you out? Even if it doesn't help, you've lost no money and your secrets are kept. Therapy is just paying to be spied on and have your brain tampered with in most cases.
Also, most churches have a confession schedule posted somewhere (many maintain a small website for schedules), and you can call ahead to schedule with the priest yourself if you need to (it's still free). While you're in there, there's really no time limit. Therapy is on a timer and you have to schedule every visit in advance.
Indulgences, even those illicitly sold by Tetzel through simony which started Luther’s spergsesh, never brought anyone into heaven.
Indulgences are the material atonement with an understanding that one will spend less time in purgatory. I.e. they are already heaven bound.
Please understand our theology before trying to insult it.
Happy month of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
Don’t give the scizoid ammo anon
Just important to dismiss completely false slander against the Church, in my opinion.
Well normies have an IQ in the double digits & believe that the government is obligated to take care of & protect them so they can kick rocks.
Still not sure what he meant by the church still doing it today though.

Tickets at the gate are always more. Advance seating is the way.

Anon, you don't want to survive the Biblical apocalypse. If you're Catholic you should know the "Rapture" isn't what's going to happen, it's something a prot woman on shrooms dreamt up during an intense trip like 200 years ago.
Going off Revelations, the faithful are all going to be killed off by the "Four Horsemen" (not actual entities, just abstract representations of things), meaning those who are saved will all die in the various wars (wars of Conquest are differentiated from other types of wars, such as wars on terror or civil wars), famines, and plagues (Death is plagues, the horse he rides on is described as having the pallid skin of a corpse). God is the one who saves you and resurrects you after you're claimed. The survivors go through a world of absolute shit that you don't want to be alive for.
Overall though, I advise you not to trouble yourself with these thoughts. There is quite literally nothing you can do about it other than hope you die before it happens. No man knows the hour. Humanity has experienced several societal collapses before, so there's no real reason to think an impending one will be the end of all things. It's cyclical and innate to mankind, we build again and again only to destroy what we've made and start over again.
Just live well, as our Lord has instructed us.
Also it bothers me that people call it the apocalypse, the term just means a great dispersal of knowledge, which does come before it, but isn't it. It's just referred to as the End of Days. Really, a huge infodump could be called an apocalypse and it would be correct.
Learn first aid, how to blacksmith, how to farm without fertilizer or power tools.
That alone will easily make you better prepared and more valuable than learning how to shoot better.
>why not just go to church?
FPBP but Christ himself cautioned against what you are doing OP live for each day well and do as he asked, not obsess on apocalypse and the ramblings of false prophets for no man knows the hour
Pray to whatever god you worship I guess, that's what they tell you. If anything you seem to believe actually came to pass, it'll do about as good as anything else
>How do I prepare for the literal apocalypse
You better start with a Bible.
>literal biblical apocalypse
Consider the following.
Bro.
Bro you chopped out seven books of the Bible.
No one can know the time or date
>biblical apocalypse
Welcome it with open arms, paradise with God awaits
Isn't the point of the Biblical Apocalypse that no one survives? Those who are saved are raptured out and those who aren't get to experience a, quite literal, Hell on Earth. Any biblical scholars please correct me if I'm wrong
Correct. OP is either a schizo or it's just a troll thread
Probably b8, hence no (you) for OP
there are a series of events but at no point do ALL humans day.
some stay alive all the series of events long
Scizo And esl, fantastic, are you one of those Japanese Christian larpers who think a meteor AND a black hole will hit us next month?
Op is another /x/ or /misc/ tier moron who thinks you’d be able to outsmart literally deific beings because you stocked up on fricking calorie mates and dry rotted gas masks while chanting some rituals made by literal scizos
There are a few interpretations of the biblical apocalypse, like three specific order of events.
One is "rapture happens, Jesus returns and brings about a millennium of peace, shit hits the fan"
the other is "Jesus returns and brings about a millennium of peace, rapture happens, shit hits the fan"
the other is "we are currently in the millennium of peace and will end when jesus returns, rapture happens, shit hits the fan"
in ALL interpretations of the apocalypse, the devout are saved before anything bad happens.
so im ok no matter what
Well that last one is wrong considering it’s been two since his resurrection
the millennium can start at any moment, dumbass
That’s incredibly convenient
well i wouldnt exactly call the last two thousand years "peaceful" in human history so its safe to say it probably hasn't started
By WHOS definition?
No point in human history has been peaceful, and never will be. The convenience of apocalypse predictions is that theyre predicated on ever present factors like war, famine, natural disasters etc. People have been predicting the impending apocalypse since the idea of an apocalypse was first conceived
I think The Rapture is tge best part, but it would be cool to chill with J-Dog.
>Isn't the point of the Biblical Apocalypse that no one survives?
No, some survive, but death is supposed to be considered a mercy compared to what's written in Revelations.
If it's a literal apocalypse you'll be dead.
you need to buy a plane ticket to afghanistan
only way a 'biblical flood' happens is if we get hit with a flare so strong it actually causes the earth to shake/tilt, safest spot for surviving that would be a cave system somewhere in the mountains of central asia, preferably one that is dated +12k years - it means that it went through the mass extinction 12k years ago and stayed intact; bonus is that if a superflood/storm does happen, interglacial period will also come to an end, and high up is where you want to be to get water
as for everything else - stay away from cities, buy a book on edible plants in your country, learn how to filter water properly, how to make clothes, trap animals etc and, most importantly, find a group of like minded people, cause you aint gonna make it alone
>it went through the mass extinction 12k years ago and stayed intact; bonus is that if a superflood/storm does happen, interglacial period will also come to an end, and high up is where you want to be to get water
You are making a LOT of assumptions, pal!

You guys are homosexuals, isn't reddit back up by now?
>How do I prepare for the literal apocalypse within my lifetime?
Imo the best way to "prepare" is to make yourself as self sufficient as possible. Learn how to hunt, learn how to grown your own food, get fit. Those things will help you in practically any scenario and you don't have to waste your money on gear you'll likely never use.
>join fed police, military for experience
Yeah do it, expand your skill set
You’d know wouldn’t you?
Your post is an argument for birth control
You can't, homosexual, the demons will frick you up, just pray that all your sins were expunged.
>just pray that all your sins were expunged.
All anyone can hope for, really. Before unpinning this thread I will offer this
>if someone is talking shit about you
>live your life so no one will believe them
Kind of a Golden Rule thing...
How many times has the end of days been predicted and how many times has it come to pass?
Just live your life, don't waste what little time we're granted.
I predict the end of days every day and I'm always right! Everyday at midnight starts a NEW day to live with Faith, improve myself and help others. Repeat next day.
Everything is going to be ok. No matter how bad it hurts. After you believe you'll see signs. If you trust God your fear will disappear. Completely.
If you cheat on your lover, lie and steal you'll never see the signs.
>no prepping general
does anyone here have that screenshot/photograph of an interview with a bosnian man about surviving the siege of sarajevo?
That’s a fabrication used in hopes of selling a grift course.
oh thank you, should have figured it sounded way too apocalyptic
Not the one I read in '02, classic reality based advice.
Prayer
Buy land and learn to become self sufficient
But chances are you're too lazy, stupid, and/or poor to be able to do that.
With moderate seriousness on the topic, it stuck out to me that everyone from Joseph to Daniel is specifically warned to stock up for seven years of famine, as if that's an apocalyptic number but also something that happened with quasi-regularity to wreck nations.
Back then this just meant laying up a shitload of hard red winter wheat in granaries. Gruel and flatbread won't provide for 100% of your nutrition needs, but it's an incredibly useful calorie/card/protein backstop that turns whatever else you can forage, herd or hunt from a starvation diet into a... not starvation diet. Of course today there's much better opens; mylar packed dry rice and beans, canned veggies, spam and sardines, etc.
It's definitely something I consider aspirational, doesn't take an extreme expense or effort. I've got about two years worth laid up myself right now.
Wouldn’t a literal abrahamic apocalypse be basically divine wrath? I’m not arrogant enough it imagine that I can square up to god, and I’m pretty sure bullets would not work on demons
>How do I prepare for the literal apocalypse within my lifetime?
The Bible is clear. Put on the full armor of God. Ephesians 6.
>I DO go to catholic church
Well there's your problem. The Bible says only God forgives sins. Why do you sit in a confessional booth speaking to a Man, when Christ's death on the cross ended intermediaries. The Bible again; Call no Man "father". The pope is not in the Bible. Chants and ritual are forbidden in the Bible; they are idols. Catholicism is a satanic con to sway Christians away from the Word of God. Same exactly goes for Orthodox, . Prayer beads? WTF!
t. Actual reader of the KJV Bible, not the kenite manipulated ~~*versions*~~

>Listening to a Black person
The truth is the truth doesent matter who says it, he is clearly right
>The Bible says only God forgives sins
The Bible also outlines procedures for penance before a priest. The method has changed, no longer are you to sacrifice animals, Christ Himself is the sacrifice as He told us. He is the final sacrifice for all mankind.
The priest, also, is not the one who forgives you. God ultimately does, the priest is only carrying out God's Will. Remember also that it was written to "confess your sins to one another and pray for one another"
>The Bible again; Call no Man "father"
Post the verse, because I haven't seen it. Biblically, many people are called Father, even though they are not the person's dad. When Elijah is taken up to Heaven, Elisha calls after him "my father, my father! Israel's chariots and drivers!" Calling a man your father was a sign of deep respect. Elijah was not Elisha's actual father, only his mentor. But Elisha held him in such high regard that he referred to him as such. This is only one time this happens, it occurs throughout the scriptures.
>The pope is not in the Bible.
Christ names Peter as such, the name itself is what we called it. Ignoring that, the Israelites had a high priest ever since the time of Moses. In fact, God gets mad at the Israelites for wanting a king to rule over them, as He wanted only a high priest to be His representative to them as their heavenly king. Guess what the Pope is? God's representative. It's entirely Biblical.
>Chants and ritual are forbidden in the Bible; they are idols
It isn't. Idols are referred to as graven images. We don't even keep that prohibition because we've seen God's face now, He walked among us as both God and man. Before that, they were punished for depicting him as a bull and whatnot.

Kinda gotta go with this. Otoh, like the Koran, The Book of Mormon was straight mouth to ear. Right from G-dog to his Prophets.
The first step is to become secular so you can make decisions without a bunch of dogmatic nonsense clouding your judgment.
secularism destroyed the west
Secularism created the west as you and I know it.
the west where we normalize homosexuality? women in workplaces? lgbt? small families? capatalist exploitation?
Some of that stuff, but also things like 'germ theory' too
germ theory was created by a devout catholic
>Pasteur was a devout Catholic. Although a remarkable scientist, he was also a religious man. He recognized the need for religion, and sometimes relied on faith alone to continue his work. "If by chance you falter on the journey, a hand will be there to support you.
>"If by chance you falter on the journey, a hand will be there to support you. If that should be wanting, God, who alone would take the hand from you, would accomplish the work."
he clearly would be against secularism and the novus ordo mass. also terrain theory makes more sense

Yes, there are many religious scientists and engineers in western society, even today. The important part is that they don't rely on divine providence when they are doing something, like, you know, actually important
