Consider This…

Grace and peace to you from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Thessalonians 2

My girlfriend and I have a particular topic to agree to disagree. She likes staying informed about the United States politics with a hint of conspiracy theories. She does this so she knows who to vote for when its time. I on the other hand listen to the news that she watches but Iwant to be “spiritually prepared” and believe that our present day political and social mayhem can be best explained by

19 We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one. 1John 5:19

And the follow up to that scripture is…

But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people. 2Timothy 3

So the evil one is in the world which would be obvious or the world would be a much better place to live in and no world leader or politician should say anything to contrary lest they would be considered part of the evil in this world.  

In the scripture from 2Timothy3 when you read the entire paragraph go back to where it reads “There will be terrible times in the last days.”Then read the rest of the scripture again and you will realize like I did that all these things are already happening…“in the last days.”

Remember:

16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16

God bless all that read this with His love, light, grace, mercy, and wisdom. In the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Amen.

21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. Revelation 22:21
