October 29, 2018: Boiling Point
Boiling Point
Our country, our world is at a boiling point. Wars, threats of war, violence, disease, famine, natural disasters, lawlessness, suicide and depression, rampant drug addiction, and people pretending to be godly and yet rejecting the one true God who can save us all - Jesus Christ. Something is happening to our world. Many can sense it, even people who don’t call themselves Christians know that something is very wrong. The world has never been like this before with so many things in the world today happening all at the same time, converging just at the right moment. The right moment when many will look to a person, a world leader, to just make all of this pain and suffering go away. That person will gladly step in, to take power over all. But he won’t be who they think he is. We are in a deep and fierce spiritual battle. Satan is roaring about, seeking whom he may devour. He wants your soul. He wants to make you so comfortable in your sin that you are blinded to the truth and will not seek the One and only who can save you from your sins. Oh, how I pray for those whose eyes are blinded to the truth, that they will listen to that still small voice that is telling them there is something more, much more than this world can offer and it is like nothing they have never known before. Turning to Jesus offers true freedom, it breaks the bondage from sin, and Jesus paid for that freedom with His blood and His suffering on the cross. He died because He loves you and wants to offer you true freedom. I know that many who read this will disagree and say that I’m foolish and stupid for believing in some sky daddy, and that’s okay. Call me a fool for Christ, for “God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise…” (1 Corinthians 1:27).
