If you have been
following me over the last several years,
you will probably agree that the world is in
deep trouble. Of course, this is not the
first time in earth’s history there have
been people predicting the end of times.
There have always been conflicts. There have
always been religious wars. These periods of
history seem to come and go. Sometimes
issues are resolved; sometimes not.
Ideological wars fueled by those who have a
religious bias seem to be the most difficult
to resolve. Political leaders worldwide are
scratching their heads. Not God. He is still
on the throne.
The present
president of the United States refuses to
call Islamic terrorists Islamic terrorists.
Apparently, he has never read the Koran
which the terrorists have read and are
fulfilling every jot and tittle. Somehow,
they are convincing young men and women,
boys and girls to join them. They are very
focused. Their aim is to maim, kill, and
destroy everyone who does not bow their knee
to Allah.
Governments say
they must work together and cooperate.
Obviously, the terrorists are outthinking
the very best of the politicians. In the
case of the recent European attacks, there
were numerous warnings. For example, the
Turkey government sent word to Belgium that
they did not allow two of the terrorists
access to their country who were on their
way to Syria. They told Belgium law
enforcers these were dangerous guys before
they were sent back.
As well, Israeli
terrorist experts had just reviewed the
security situation at the Brussels airport
and found it to be a disaster waiting to
happen. The result of this negligence was
the loss of many lives.
So, for the
future, what can be done? I will tell you
what will happen based on insights I have
from the Bible. Global problems always
require global solutions. Surveillance of
every person on the planet is already a
possibility. This is what I see coming based
on my understanding of the book of
Revelation, chapter 13.
Organizations
like the United Nations will become even
more powerful. Rules and regulations will
make a sham of human rights. And people will
love it so.
However, there
is another area I must take some time to
discuss in order to give an even more
complete snapshot of the future. All
religions will have to agree to disagree and
become one. This may seem to be impossible,
based on the differences that there are
among the religions of the world. But
remember, Satan is god of this world. He is
the pied piper of deception. He knows how to
unite the masses under a religion that he
set up to brainwash the world.
Further, throw
in a few lying signs and wonders and
supernatural events in the name of
Christianity. Could the head of Rome be so
eager to provide an answer for peace and
safety that he may play a significant role?
I am not predicting. I am only speculating,
but I think it is fair to say that
speculation of this type is not beyond the
realm of possibility.
Muslims and
Roman Catholics both believe that “Mary,”
the mother of Jesus, is showing up here and
there. What if this apparitional woman
provided a solution? What if “evangelical”
charismatics go for the “Second Pentecost”
accepting that a mighty outpouring of the
Holy Spirit is coming upon the earth and the
whole world is coming to Jesus.
Would this be
the historical Jesus of the Bible, or would
it be another Jesus? Would the Holy
Spirit be poured out by Mary as many
Catholics teach, or would it be the Holy
Spirit who always operates according to
biblical parameters?
I suppose time
will tell. If I were you, I would begin
reading the Bible from front to back. The
Word of God is God’s revelation to man. You
will find the answers there for yourself.
