I've watched as things that I was taught were corrupted and turned
against what I believed. Things taken to such levels of exaggeration
that went around to the other side and became the accepted norm. And
it's hard!
One of the latest things is the focus on promoting the "greatest of
all time". The culture I'm in is so focused on sport and competition
and winning the "honor" of being "the best there ever was" and "the
greatest of all time". Being Americans of course we shorten that to
GOAT. And so now I'm watching the symbol that people have used for
devil worship be promoted as representing the greatest thing in the
world.
As I watch "settled science" on biology get overturned in the name of
personal preference of sex and sexual orientation, as I watch men get
declared as the greatest female athletes of all time, as I watch the
church turned in to the butt of jokes and the villain in movies and
video games, as I watch more and more people do illegal things because
nobody is watching them I have to wonder
I read chapter 1 of the letter to the Romans and the Bible and wonder
again if we are living that out right
now.(https://www.bible.com/bible/97/ROM.1.MSG)
As they keep talking about limiting and tracking all cash transactions
with digital currencies and other symbols that we will just have to
wave over a sensor and I see fellow Christians react in fear but I
actually welcome it. Because the sooner these things happen the
sooner my Savior comes back. Come, Lord Jesus!
