All kinds of strange things are happening now that we don't even know about and couldn't change if we did know. I want my mind free of garbage I have no need to know and will have no power over.
My God will let me know what to do and when without me filling my mind with useless information that I have no control over.
Philippians 4:7-9 "7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable— if anything is excellent or praiseworthy— think on these things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me, put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.…"
God never called us to put our minds on the evil things the government is doing or those who are secretly carrying out plans. We are called to have faith, that faith causes us to keep our eyes on Christ filling our mind with His principles, trusting that He knows our future and our need.
Believers are called to speak the truth of the Bible not the conspiracies of the world. This is our mission, we don't have much time left for this.
When we are raptured out of this world do we want the last thing we said to an unbeliever to be how terrible the world is becoming or do we want them to hear about Christ and hope in salvation if they trust in Him?
Personally, I think this is a no-brainer!
Hebrews 4:12
"For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart."
2 Timothy 3:16-17
"All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work."
1 Peter 4:11
"Whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen."
At the end of the day, at the end of the church age what really matters is not that we informed someone about all the filth in the world to frighten them to death. What matters is whether or not they say joy and Christ in us and heard the salvation message.
Luke 12:40
"You also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.”
