Behind the Darkness

Ezekiel 12:2

Son of man, you live among rebels who could see the truth

if they wanted to, but they don’t want to.  They could hear

Me if they would listen, but they won’t listen because they

are rebellious.  (NLT)

     Christians are the minority in this evil world that reeks of sin and wickedness; a world that wages war against the holiness of God; a world where evil is sacred and godliness is out dated.  We live in a world that is held captive by Satan's evil ways and is consumed with darkness.  We live in a world where truth is not relative and deceit runs ramped, and to lie is the norm.  We live in a world whose voices of darkness speak loud and often, poisoning our minds and killing our hearts.  The world’s evil ways turn the Truth of God upside down and inside out; that bad is good and good is bad, and right is wrong and wrong is right. We live in a world where the Almighty God has been reduced to whatever or whomever we want Him to be.  And because the world is in such a fallen state of delusion, we find ourselves lost in a thick, dark fog that is getting thicker and darker by the moment.  Even though we have God’s Light to help us navigate through this dark fog, the darkness remains and so, too, does our struggle to survive.  The war being waged against the Holy Church of our Lord God and Savior, Jesus Christ, is an intense war that will rage on until King Jesus returns. 

     Satan and his army of followers are not only working overtime to deceive and enslave the world to their ways, but they are also working deep within the Church, twisting the Words of God to suit their agenda.  They sugar coat the Truth in order to keep people from knowing the victory that is in Christ Jesus alone.  The Book of Revelation is one of the least read books of the Bible, because Satan is spreading his lies that the Revelation of Jesus Christ is not only too hard to understand, but is nothing more than a mythical fantasy with little value.  But the last Book in God's story is the last Book in the Bible for a reason, my friend.  It's to show us the end of this evil world, and how we can best prepare ourselves for that ending.   King Jesus is Lord over creation, Commands Heaven's army, and will return to earth in all His Glory to condemn all those who partake in its evil and reward the righteous.  Christians know that evil will be eradicated forever by King Jesus.  We know the Hope we have in our Savior.   Don’t let this evil world convince you otherwise.  Leave your rebellion behind and make the effort to learn and believe in the Truth, because without Jesus you will be left behind in the darkness!

                                   A Whisper of Hope

Turn from your rebellion, dear child...instead, follow the path that leads to Me, your King and Savior.  There are many that speak against the Truth, but don’t be sucked into their vile lies.  Follow that Still Small Voice that speaks to your heart, for I will lead you out of this dark world and Home.

Revelation 17:14

Together they will wage war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will

defeat them because He is the Lord over all lords and King over all

kings, and His people are the called and chosen and faithful ones.  (NLT)

        For every child of God defeats this evil world

              by trusting Christ to give the victory.
