Most do not Self Evaluate

The wicked details of what evil people do is not prophesy, it has always been here and it is normal human behavior with the influence of the devil. The devil loves it when we walk around frustrated and angry at what he is doing.

Prophesies are the things God has told us in His Word. We are not given the ugly details by God because it is not needed. We trust God when we see things that happen we recognize the truth. God gave us all that we needed to know what the world will be like. We are living in those times when all that He said is coming true.

The wicked details of what evil people do are not helpful in growing in holiness they only agitate the spirit promoting anger even possibly tempting a weak believer to look a little more at the sin they see.

Psalm 5:3-5…3 In the morning, O LORD, You hear my voice; at daybreak, I lay my plea before You and wait in expectation. 4 For You are not a God who delights in wickedness; no evil can dwell with You. 5 The boastful cannot stand in Your presence; You hate all workers of iniquity.…

Psalm 101:7 "…6 My eyes favor the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me; he who walks in the way of integrity shall minister to me. 7 No one who practices deceit shall dwell in my house; no one who tells lies shall stand in my presence. 8 Every morning I will remove all the wicked of the land, that I may cut off every evildoer from the city of the LORD.…'

We are not to fear evil men, nor should we glorify their acts by dwelling continually on the details of their evil.

Psalm 37:1-11
"37 Do not fret because of evildoers,
Be not envious toward wrongdoers.
2 For they will wither quickly like the grass
And fade like the green herb.
3 Trust in the Lord and do good;
Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness.
4 Delight yourself in the Lord;
And He will give you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit your way to the Lord,
Trust also in Him, and He will do it.
6 He will bring forth your righteousness as the light
And your judgment as the noonday.
7 Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him;
Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way,
Because of the man who carries out wicked schemes.
8 Cease from anger and forsake wrath;
Do not fret; it leads only to evildoing.
9 For evildoers will be cut off,
But those who wait for the Lord, they will inherit the land.
10 Yet a little while and the wicked man will be no more;
And you will look carefully for his place and he will not be there.
11 But the humble will inherit the land
And will delight themselves in abundant prosperity."

Do not glorify the devil by sharing all his evil exploits with believers.

We ought to be spending our time glorifying God and speaking the truth to believers and unbelievers alike.

I think it is possible there is pride in the heart of those who love knowing evil details. Since they are not doing those highly wicked things they do not self evaluate the small things in their own lives.

Just saying!! We don't tend to self evaluate when we think we are so much better than those other wicked people.
