A construction worker who came from Newfoundland said, "a Weather guy lies five times a week and gets paid, but I am working so hard for minimum wage." Of course that is only a Newfie joke. Meteorologists don't want their forecast to become inaccurate information because of sudden changing weather. They try hard to predict the weather changes accurately using scientific data such as satellite photos from the sky and various measurements with modern technology. The truth is that no matter how hard they work at it, they are not able to predict the weather changes to one hundred percent accuracy. So far, I have never experienced that a long range forecast was right. Even two days of forecast is so often wrong. An interesting thing is that weather information is a little bit different depending on each News channel. So it has become my habit to cross check up the weather forecast from different News channels.
Although weather forecasting is not always accurate, people watch the weather program all the time and every news broadcast provides updated weather information from time to time including the Internet. People are curious to know what will happen in the future. That is human nature. Regardless whether or not it is accurate, nowadays the weather forecast is very important especially for those who are travelling a lot. We are living in a mobile time period. People are moving around more often and far further than ever before. So getting to know what weather will be like in a certain area where they plan to travel is crucial in their travel preparation and readiness. If we know what that will happen in the future, then things will be much easier and more relaxed in our life journey.
A few weeks ago a meteor blew up in the air just above a small town in the Siberian Prairies in Russia. It became headline news for a couple of weeks to figure it out why, how and what was it? More than a thousand people were injured from the results of the shock waves in a few seconds and the fall of scattered pieces from the meteor's explosion. Thank God, nobody was killed. Some scientist said that the blast was 33 times more powerful than the atom bombs blown up on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan during World War II. Some physicist said that it would be an example of how the earth could be destroyed. Some told other perspectives of how dangerous meteors crushes toward the earth would be in the future! But an important thing is that nobody had predicted that it would happen until it happened at an unexpected time, in the unpredictable place and through an unimaginable way. Truly it is very hard to predict things that will happen above in heaven from the earth.
A theologian John Polkinghorne who was once a famous physicist said, "carbon based 小蓝视频s and things have their own days and times." The human body is composed of a lot of carbon based compounds, so our body has its own days and times. We all are eventually getting old and dying and disappearing. Almost everything in and on the earth is composed carbon compounds, even earth itself. So everything is becoming, changing and disappearing. Many times and in many different books of the Bible there are predictions that the last day of the world surely will come. "But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up" (2 Peter 3:10). The incident of the meteor's explosion in Russia seems to be a good sample sign of what will be like the last day of the earth in the forecast of the Bible.
