1. Violence has rapidly increased on our streets over the last 10 years! 2. There are more teenage pregnancies than ever before! 3. The rate of abortion gets higher and higher year after year! 4. There is constant rebellion against authority! 5. On the whole, society has become more aggressive than ever! 6. The Government has become more dishonest; 'fleecing' the people rather than protecting them! 7. Alcohol and drugs are rampant in every city, town and village. 8. People are being 'conditioned;' our freedom and choices are being taken away! 9. Morals, standards and manners have declined to the degree of near non-existence! 10. TV has made people anti-social! 11. There is a widespread lack of discipline! 12. People are less thankful these days. 13. TV has encouraged and promoted sex before marriage, homosexuality, adultery, violence, pornography etc. 14. TV is desensitising people; making them less sensitive to cruelty and suffering. 15. No-one today has a FINAL AUTHORITY in which to believe. Everyone has their own opinion, so how do we KNOW what is right and wrong? 16. Christianity is being marginalised !!! 17. People will do almost anything for money these days! 18. Lying has become the norm! Today we expect to be lied to, whether it's buying a product or service. People lie to one another SO MUCH that oftentimes you cannot differentiate between what is truth and what is false!
How come watching sex and violence on TV doesn't shock us any more?
Whether you believe it or not, this country of ours is in such a mess because we have departed from obeying God's word (the Bible) ... it's as simple as that!
You don't believe me? - I'll prove it to you!
Go back just thirty years; were children better behaved or worse?
You KNOW they were better behaved! Each generation is growing up knowing less and less about God and the Bible!
Can you believe in today's society? Children are stabbing
each other with knives, having sex changes, getting pregnant, rebelling
against authority etc. You KNOW the streets are no longer safe; gangs of
youths roam around looking for trouble! Children grow up with no real purpose;
most just drift through life not knowing where they are going, and very
few really find the true meaning of life!
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.
Once, children were brought up to believe in God and to fear Him regarding the consequences of their SINS. There was a fear of God in days gone by; there is very little today, if any. God has written some very strong words in the Bible... God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar... As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: Their feet are swift to shed blood: Destruction and misery are in their ways: And the way of peace have they not known: THERE IS NO FEAR OF GOD BEFORE THEIR EYES.
Schools have replaced the teaching of God's creation with the theory of evolution (It's not science!). They no longer teach the Bible to our children, therefore children no longer feel accountable for their sin... they don't even know what SIN is!
And yet, the Bible says that if you don't have your sins forgiven you will go to Hell forever when you die! The Devil has truly blinded the minds of millions of people today... In whom the god of this world (the Devil) hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. He that believeth on the Son (Jesus Christ) hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
However, the Lord Jesus Christ has provided a way for you to have your sins forgiven and go to Heaven when you die. He took your sins and punishment upon Himself, died and was buried. On the third day He rose again, conquering sin and death! Jesus Christ loved you that much!
All you have to do is realise you are a sinner, repent, and ask the Lord Jesus Christ to forgive you of all your sins. Ask Him to lead and guide you in every decision you make from now on.
Do it today before it's too late!
For God so loved the world, that
he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not
perish, but have everlasting life.
