We live in a society gone mad. It is obvious that violence is rising all over the world.
The childlike idea or concept of ‘give peace a chance’ never stood a chance, still doesn’t and may never. Those warm and fuzzy words of peace are in an angry world of growing confusion.
The fact is, America is tumbling down faster and faster and seeing it fall from the unparalleled height it once was, is a clear look at the increase of sin, evil, crime and lawlessness.
Presidents, politicians and people looking only at the results of darkened hearts born with a sin nature call for unity in a divided land. The inner conflict between right and wrong is an issue that only God can solve.
The truth is people are divided from within and express their divisions everywhere on many levels of social expression. The idea of a real united land may have become passé. The only unity that is found is in the many groups of people that divide from each other.
America, in its attempt to become more inclusive like Europe’s anti-Christian life styles, is bogged down with Christian morals, lessons learned and outlooks that had made it great.
As senseless as some killing is, it’s too bad someone didn’t have a gun in the Orlando bar to shoot the maniac. But then again if a maniac is bent toward violence there are plenty of ways to be evil.
A society gone mad will legalize murder and allow a mother to kill her baby. States of a nation will legalize euthanasia and do away with the old, disabled and useless drains (their thinking) on precious funding.
As the national budget gets eaten up and national debt deepens year after year so called leaders will take money from people by legalizing vices and more vices.
More gambling, and marijuana venues will grease the skids for legalizing prostitution, other drugs and letting more criminals out of prison to cut costs. All at the public’s expense.
If the court systems get even more bogged down and overloaded with limited staffing and lack of funding they can always raise the taxes higher and higher. All tax payers will suffer tax hikes.
But that doesn’t mean sin, evil, crime and lawlessness will sleep. Even if all the guns were confiscated (because that’s the government’s ONLY remedy) there is always gasoline, knives, poison or some kind of powder, chemical or gas to kill people.
As precious as the gift of life is, it begins to die the minute it is conceived, earth is a graveyard. People are so caught up with the here and now they don’t have a plan for going into eternity.
As long as individuals want to think politicians can fix the problems, anything goes, and there is always tomorrow, the blindness will continue. But politicians are not able to fix sin and evil.
When an individual can see the One Perfect life giving tree in the forest of doom and despair then there is hope beyond the grave. Each person is now responsible for their life after death.
Our Creator God has given great loving eternal hope for His creatures and His name is Jesus. By the grace of God people may have faith in Christ Jesus, the only Savior of souls.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
There is no excuse for living without hope. There is no excuse for someday being in hell forever. People go to hell because they reject Jesus, the Savior from hell.
John 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
Life and times on this planet are worsening and will only worsen. What is your plan for eternity? Trust in yourself, that your perfect to go into God’s perfect heaven? Or trust Christ?
The fact that Jesus lived is indisputable. The fact that Christian martyrs died horrible deaths in the Colosseum, hung on crosses and were burned alive for their faith in Jesus, are all facts in history.
These life changing beliefs speaks to the real inner change people live with when God comes to live within. God invites all people to believe in His Son Jesus. God came, His name is Jesus.
As John 3:16 clearly states “that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”
Ask God for eternal life, ask Him for Jesus.
