Watching television, listening to the radio or reading the newspaper can be very discouraging.
It appears the world is going to hell in a hand-basket.
Actually, it is.
The Bible speaks of a time when every knee will bow and tongue confess to God. (Romans 14:11) Until then, the world will wax worse and worse.
Preachers love to hold out "heaven" as our final reward, but the Bible says the upright will dwell in the land and the perfect will remain in it.
Do Not Be Deceived:
The earth is our inheritance.
It was never God's plan for us to live, die and go to heaven.
His plan was for us to live and enjoy his creation...for eternity. It's still his plan and purpose for us...and we are so blessed and fortunate to be the last of the old and the first of the new. (Mark 10:31)
God is preparing to return the earth to it's former glory...he's going to again remove the wicked, evil and unrepentant, just as it was in the days of Noah.
It's bad now, but It's going to get worse, a lot worse, before it gets better. Be strong and of good courage.
It's not the end of the world, as some would have you believe...it's the beginning of a new world; the kingdom of heaven. But, as Jesus said, you must be born again to see or enter the kingdom.
There's a new world coming, where the upright will dwell and the perfect will remain; but if you expect to survive what's coming, you must be born again.
Until you're reborn Spiritually...nothing else matters.
