Something I found interesting...

This is short, but noteworthy.

Chilean earthquake shortens day, affects Earth’s axis

Matthew 24:22

"If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened."

Just another reminder to wake up.

Doesn't make much of a difference.

"Barely?" - What sort of super powers do you have to barely notice 1.26 micro seconds?

I should also add, this wasn't the first earthquake to shorten days...read the whole article.

"These numbers compare with the 2004 magnitude 9.1 Sumatran earthquake, which is estimated to have shifted Earth’s axis by 2.76 inches and shortened the day by 6.8 microseconds."

I don't see why we won't have more earthquakes to shorten the days until the end.

The solar system is Gods gears to his clock.

I'd like to make an observation about what is meant by "shortening of the days".
It has nothing to do with the length of the individual day; there's no reason why that should have the effect of making it easier for people to survive.

"Those days" is a colloquial expression meaning "that period of time". "Those days will be shortened" means that the period of crisis will be shorter than it might have been; eight months, for example, instead of nine. And the fact that the time of crisis is reduced in length is what makes it possible for people to survive it.

Japan quacke shortened the day too :

"It has nothing to do with the length of the individual day; there's no reason why that should have the effect of making it easier for people to survive."

You honestly don't believe that shortening the days wouldn't have an affect on EVERYTHING?

Even if it was shortened by 10 minutes none of us would really notice. This is God we are talking about, EVERYTHING matters.

It isn't to make it EASIER for people to survive, but yet to precisely bring in Gods plan as it was planned from the beginning.

If you believe God doesn't work in precision beyond our imagination, than you wouldn't exist.

The shortening is "for the sake of the elect". Reducing the length of the individual day does absolutely nothing for the elect.

If you're trying to interpret scripture, you need to go by what the words meant at the time they were written.
At thie time this passage was written, the Greek phrase "those days" meant a period of time.
Don't just take my word for it; look in any standard commentary. I have in front of me the Tyndale commentary (R.T. France), which paraphrases this verse as; "the destruction will not be allowed to run its full course".

Now that I think about it...The elect do have their days shortened by 1,260, if I remember correctly.

Just an interesting coincidence that the days are literally being shortened in the end days as well...

Revelation 12:6

"The woman(bride of christ/144000) fled into the desert to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days."

If the Chilean earthquake and the Japan earthquake shortened the days...this could be just the beginning. Maybe other things will come to pass to shorten the days to come. In Gods wisdom it will happen gradually for our bodies to adjust. Maybe?

My previous post I believe is the answer. I over-looked it after I watched a video hearing an earthquake shortened the days here on earth.

I came to the understanding now...

"Matthew 24:22

"If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened."

It's saying no would survive because God wouldn't have an army to come back for armegaddon. So the days for the elect must be shortended to save all.

This army(144000) will be kept away for 1,260 days when Satan comes down knowing his time is short.

I apologize for jumping on this idea so quick.



It is still interesting that each individual day is being shortened as well....

i was agreeing with PoorFool...i was being sarcastic. Who would notice 1.26 microsecond time difference? I certainly haven't
