THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO LIVE
No, the circumstances of life are not good
and the spiritual climate is not good,
and the level of spiritual understanding is not good,
and the message of God is not well received,
and there are very few who even attempt to lift up the truth of the Holy Bible,
and there is an overabundance of false witnesses, false Christs and false doctrines,
YET men (people) are coming face to face with the real issues of life, and hopefully there will be an honest hunger for truth and a heart felt receptivity to the gospel of Christ, and hopefully, your voice, as one crying in the wilderness.
Last week I had the opportunity to share with several people in several different ways. Let me tell you about one of my opportunities.
I talked t o a couple of men, (1) concerning the claims of Christ on our lives and (2) the plan of God for the future of our fragile world. Both of these realities are clearly addressed in the New Testament. "Share," is not a bad word, as some groups want us to think. It is one of the many ways that believers WITNESS for Christ.
One of the things I run into on a regular basis, as I witness to others, is their enormous ignorance of the Bible, the human condition and the failure of modern attempts to solve the human tragedy. I am never surprised, because it has been following the European model many decades. But I am still amazed. And, as if things aren't bad enough, the intellectuals and the religious leaders are adding darkness to darkness as they parrot the lies they have been taught by Liberalism.
It is past time for Christians to get serious and get equipped. Though it is late, we must turn all of our energies to winning the lost world. Imagine Noah building the ark, and whistling Dixie, as the day of destruction closed in on the world.
120 YEARS
For 120 years Noah,
Built the ark,
Cried out to his neighbors to turn to God,
Prayed for his neighbors to repent,
Cried for the children.
For 120 years he was ignored, but he was faithful. We don't have 120 years. We will be rejected and ridiculed, but God help us to raise the warning and throw out the lifeline.
