Perilous times around the world
Perilous happenings are now spread all over the world. Peoples and nations are facing difficulties in life. The economies of America, Europe, Korea and Japan are on the precarious situation. The U.S. House of Representatives has rejected the $700 billion bailout requested by the White House and the U.S. Treasury Secretary. Should the U.S. Congress fails to pass the bailout bill by the weekend, economists predict that a recession will follow and not only the Americans will suffer but the whole world as well. Only a divine intervention will rescue the world from the wrath of God.
In the Bible, II Timothy 3:1-5, "This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful and unholy. Without natural affection, truce breakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good. Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God. Having form of godliness, but denying the power thereof, from such turn away."
Envious people are aware that there is God but continue to accumulate wealth at the expense of the poor and the afflicted. Even financial executives do not handle carefully the money of their clients and depositors and overspend and overinvest the hard-earned money they do not own and eventually lead to financial bankruptcy. U.S. Bankers and financial giants who are entrusted with billions of money of their clients turn unsuccessfully the wheels of the banking system and eventually collapsed.
God wants His creation to worship Him all the days of their life. But where do the moneyed bankers and rich people go? To casinos, beer houses, nightclubs, wildlife houses, entertainment caves, braudy saloons, and many irreputable places and never to the house of God. They bring miseries to their godly families, bad examples to their children and grandchildren.
God is still giving His creation a chance to come back to Him and lead a righteous and holy life. Otherwise, God will get mad as stated in Luke 13:3, "I tell you, nay; but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." God is a loving God, but a jealous God when His people worship graven images like idols and the gods of Satan. What shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world and lose his soul, the Holy Scripture tells all Jesus Christ believers. Not one cent will a man brings when he dies, so why accumulate money in a dishonest way? For an honest man or woman is the noblest creation of God. Are you then honest? You are the best creation of God. But the corrupt bankers and high government officials who are channel of destruction in nations will see their reward not in heaven but where? Come to church regularly. Accept Jesus Christ as saviour and redeemer and you will inherit God's kingdom. Nobody wants to inherit Satan's kingdom which is the eternal lake of fire. Be born again, repent of your sins and live a Christ life while many saints are waiting for His coming.
