The world we are living in today is very difficult for the born-again believer. They watch every day those who claim to be Christians but lack the love of God and all the rest of the fruit of the Spirit. It is more disturbing to watch "Christians" act like this because we expect it from unbelievers, but when someone claims to be a Spiritual brother or sister, it is far more disruptive.
Isaiah 5:20-21 "20 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who turn darkness to light and light to darkness, who replace bitter with sweet and sweet with bitter. 21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight."
Malachi 2:17 "You have wearied the LORD with your words; yet you ask, “How have we wearied Him?” By saying, “All who do evil are good in the sight of the LORD, and in them He delights,” or, “Where is the God of justice?”
Proverbs 24:24-25 "Whoever tells the guilty, “You are innocent”—peoples will curse him, and nations will denounce him; / but it will go well with those who convict the guilty, and rich blessing will come upon them."
Amos 5:7 "There are those who turn justice into wormwood and cast righteousness to the ground."
When we have studied the pattern through the lens of the Bible we can clearly see what is going on, once our eyes have been opened we can never see things as we used to see them again.
This is why it is such a blessing to know that Christ is coming soon, we will go home to celebrate the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, and after that we will come back with Christ when He destroys evil on the earth.
I ponder continually what it will be like when Christ our King is ruling the earth during the first 100 years of the Millennium, when everyone will act as they should. For a time at the beginning, everyone who enters the Millennium will be a follower of Christ and will possess the love of Christ.
What a blessing to know this mess will be over soon and better times are coming when Christ is ruling the earth.
Hallelujah!!!!
