However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?” Rhetorical questions need not be answered -- it&#39;s always obvious. &quot;No&quot;, there won&#39;t be...especially compared to the early church. <br />Why? Because the Holy Spirit is entirely taken for granted and unwittingly seen as irrelevant more often than we realize, for example, most people believe that Ephesians 4:5 refers to a common ritual. Thus the church and mankind are exponentially in free-fall and no revival will bring it back -- this would go against God&#39;s plan, which is not to &quot;fix&quot; a cursed world, turn it around, make it repent.<br />So, when we talk about tragedies, we talk about &#39;sins&#39; that emerges from the state of &#39;sin&#39; -- it is the state of sin that plagues us no matter what exhilarating moments we experience from time to time. It&#39;s the same old solution...Jesus.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           tovlogoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15523805892171806631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-734817143510679440.post-9756430024108719482019-08-05T12:18:39.951-04:002019-08-05T12:18:39.951-04:00AMEN!!!!! Now, as one reflects on what the article...AMEN!!!!! Now, as one reflects on what the article points out look at this last weekend 8/2-4/2019. The horror scenarios in America of today is the result of Secularism, the Left wants a &quot;GODless society, wellllll.....guess what, you have it. <br /> <br />Man&#39;s (Gk. Anthropos-human beings) heart is wicked from our youth(Genesis 8:21); it is what we do with that heart and how we train that heart and mind that produces the result of whether a person has good tendencies or evil tendencies(Jeremiah 17:9-10; Matthew 12:33-37). <br />So it is not the tool that is used that is the problem, millions of people in this country have thousands of rounds, 30 round magazines, semi-automatic weapons and abide in our society every day and have no inclination, regardless of the lawlessness of their government and it&#39;s actions, to go out and commit such heinous crimes. While Government bureaucrats and ignorant people cry out for Gun &quot;CONTROL&quot; (a.k.a. confiscation) it will not address EVIL, it will not keep people safe. Society will never be safe and regardless of what is taught, EVERYTHING you need to know you DID NOT LEARN in Kindergarten.....Today we have:<br /><br />Violent video games and movies available to kids 7/24/365<br /> Grand Theft Auto<br /> 1st shooter participation games<br /> No Parental common sense on what their kids see,<br /><br />ANTIFA running amok<br /><br />Public Education, restricted and stripped of correcting kids when they are young while in their care have resorted to indoctrinating our kids on,<br />immoral behavior, anarchy to gain what you want, and how to disrespect adults.<br /><br />We have,<br />Abortion on demand (infanticide in the name of &quot;choice&quot;)<br />Divorce on demand<br />Vilification of Fathers and the family unit<br /><br />States have passed &quot;End of Life&quot; (adult assisted suicide) Laws and forbid executions for the most heinous crimes in society in the name of &quot;compassion&quot;.<br /><br />Government misusing the 1st Amendment and vilifying those who pray to GOD in Public venues or, vilifying those Businesses that operate on Judeo-Christian Principles, not even understanding what those principles are. All they know is that the word CHRISTIAN is in the term.<br /><br />And it goes on and on.<br /><br />We, as a society have watered down our History, even Churches have watered down their preaching so as to not &quot;OFFEND&quot; people and hurt their precious little feelings, like getting your feelings hurt is a bad thing.....if you are so delicate that what someone says triggers you to commit murder the problem isn&#39;t society it is YOU...<br /><br />WE...OLDER Society used to go to schools, stores, churches with our firearms and ammunition in our vehicles, guns over the fireplace mantle and we NEVER had the problems we have today. So maybe one who thinks everything I&#39;ve pointed out is &quot;Fine&quot; should take a good look in the mirror and see that the problem in today&#39;s environment isn&#39;t the gun owner as much as the one in the mirror staring back at you who condones in the above actions as Normal and GOOD.<br />Snowman8wahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00907647650861566043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-734817143510679440.post-80700094354620520682012-08-21T22:07:40.164-04:002012-08-21T22:07:40.164-04:00Michael, Great Testimony!

Growing up, virtually everything that was happening seemed so desirable, so empowering. As a bloodwashed believer in the Risen Lord now, I am amazed, embarassed, and ashamed at how readily I sought to partake of the virulent fruit that was being passed out as &quot;Normal&quot; and &quot;Natural&quot; in terms of sexuality, morals, belief in false gods,etc. Huxley, Orwell, Zamyatin, Jack Lord, Crowley, and others couldn&#39;t have dreamed for a more receptive group of people society offered up to this. Today, we as a whole are paying dearly for our willingness to dance with the devil, who disguised himself so well back then. I am so grateful to The Lord Jesus to have allowed me to see,hear, and experience the truth of His word since then, and for His mercy to forgive me of all that I partook of then. Please come quickly for us now Lord! michael Anoreply@blogger.com
