A Crumbling Society

Today our nation is facing grave danger. We’re witnessing the collasping and decay of our society. If you look around you, or watch the nightly news you can’t help but notice a deep seeded hatred growing inside of people. Everywhere you turn there’s an abundance of anger, violence, crime, a lack of morals, abusiveness and hate.

But, what happened to respecting our fellow man? What happened to helping those in need? What happened to people listening to one another? And, what happend to doing what’s right? Look at Paul’s letter to Timothy, he says;

But Mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of good, trecherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God; having a form of Godliness but denying it’s power. Have nothing to do with such people.

2 Timothy 3:1,5 (NIV)

If we want to make this world a better place we must first stop pointing the finger at others and point it at ourselves. Because this is a daily occurrence in the news! It’s time we work together to find a better way. Of course, this will require comprise on everyone’s part and it’s really a simple thing. If your head and heart are in the right place you can make positive changes. Unfortunately, what’s going on in our nation today, in fact, our world is exactly the opposite. People have turned away from God and it shows in their actions, the way they speak and how they portray themselves.

But remember, actions have consequences and when a nation turns it’s back on God, God will turn his back on that nation. And, if you think it’s bad now, buckle up cause it’s going to get alot worse! We’re living in the “birth pangs” and you haven’t seen nothing yet!
