I don`t recall who invented TV and video games but that`s where it all started in my opinion. How can schools and churches hold up against the permanent drizzle of senseless information and infiltration coming from those boxes. Generations of parents have spent decades glued to the TV and kids know nothing but virtual reality anymore. It is so easy to sprinkle some virtual violence and wicked values into their world - and suddenly some monsters come to life. I have no hope that the Bible will be strong enough to avoid doomsday for societies.
We have been living terrible times since long before we were born. War, hatred, murder and envy have always existed. Nations became powerful through war and barbarism. Nations such as Rome and Greece conquered rich countries known to the world by killing husbands and brothers and sons…
One thing I sometimes think of is, when the Bible refers to the last days as being the most terrible of human kind, is God referring to the days that came after Jesus died?
times have not been as bad as they are today crimew is running rampant world wide....the disreespect people have for each other...everything is just getting totally out of control..and as the Bible says it will happen in the blink of an eye...and i beleive it is heading that way so fast
WWI and WWII took place after the death of Jesus. What other major, defining event happened after that? I know there have been other happenings that have swayed much of how the world functions nowadays……but I get brain dead after 11:00 pm lol.
Again, one thing I sometimes think of is, when the Bible refers to the last days as being the most terrible of human kind, is God referring to the days that came after Jesus died?
I also ignore if there is a way to know if rape, suicide, killing, murder, etc are happening more nowadays, or is it that back in the day there was no television or communication means and nobody could keep record of such occurrences. I only have the Bible to support my belief that these days are worse than ever. Do we possess another source?
PK, the last days is the time right before Jesus returns for his people. This will be the time of the anti-christ and one world government. Things are supposed to get worse and worse, not just with mankind but also nature. It's already heading that way. Just look around you. Europe started it with a one currency. Just wait and watch, you'll see it happen.
Your comments were so right on. I heard/read something yesterday that I believe also contributes to how our children and adults react. There was a poll taken on who people thought of as their hero. Jesus Christ was listed as #2. If Christ was #1 in our lives the world would be alot different place to live. April, I am really impressed with your knowledge of the Bible. Thank you for sharing the name of that book. Will try to locate it. Church library may have it.
