The Self Destruction Continues
1st January 2024
As I write this, a war is raging in the Middle East between Israel and Hamas and it shows no sign of ending soon. This war became the dominant world event at the end of 2023 and it had the effect of exposing the state of the Church and the depth of depravity of the world we now live in. It added weight to what I have been saying in recent years about the decline of the Church and the increasing wickedness of the world.
The Israel-Hamas war has exposed the lack of biblical knowledge that is widespread in the Church. Most Christians are ignorant of the covenants between God and the Jews and of His plans for them. Most churches teach false doctrines about Israel. And in addition to this, most of the Church has been silent about what is happening and are quite apathetic about it. This should come as no surprise because it fits in with the continuing decline of the Church in the West. The Church has largely abandoned sound doctrine and the practices that served it well for centuries. It has embraced the patterns of this world and polluted the Church with such things. And as a result, it continued to decline in 2023.
There is a universal principle that stems from the decline in the Church. As the Church declines, evil increases in the world around it. And this is what we have found with the world in 2023. I have witnessed the people in the world losing their mind more and more in 2023. I have witnessed the world still pushing the fake climate change agenda which is insanely pushing us towards a new dark age. I have witnessed the madness of the world abandoning the God given sources of food for mankind and instead taking further steps towards mass starvation. I have witnessed the madness of the continuing moves towards abandoning internal combustion engines and pushing the use of electric cars. There is nothing sustainable about electric cars. I have witnessed the growing interest in extra-terrestrials in 2023. There are no aliens from outer space; there are only demons posing as aliens. I have witnessed the continuing spread of left wing, communistic ideologies which are antichrist in nature. These ideologies are destroying our society. They are being pushed on our children and leading to a massive increase in mental health issues in our children. I see all these things getting worse in 2024.
I continue to believe that we are living in the last of the last days as the Church becomes more and more apostate and the world sets up the conditions for The Tribulation. That process will continue in 2024 and I believe there is worse to come. However, it is not all doom and gloom. There is still a remnant of faithful Christians though small in number. And that remnant can still do some good. If you are a Christian who loves the Lord and you are faithful to the word of God then you are part of that remnant, like the Philadelphia church in the Book of Revelation. And in 2024 you will be the light in the darkness. As we look forward to 2024, I urge you then to speak the truth wherever you can and show the love of Christ that is in you to those around you. You can’t stop the decline of the Church as a whole but you can do all you can to encourage your local church to be faithfully biblical. And you can speak the truth to those in the world wherever and however God gives you the opportunity. You can be salt and light to the world around you. And in doing so you can save some from the destruction that is to come. So, be of good cheer, the Lord your God is with you.
