HAPPY EASTER!!

Another year and we find ourselves once again celebrating the birth of Christ and with that, the promise of eternal life through acceptance of His unspeakable gift.

With each passing year comes a noticeable slide in America's national stability and this year is certainly no exception. Incredibly, the state of affairs here in this land are even more profoundly out of whack than at this time last year. God help us to realize that no matter what the situation, man's only hope is in Jesus Christ. May the blessings of this season of rebirth bring about that realization in sweeping fashion. And thanks be to God that the real truth can be known through a personal relationship with Him.

Happy Easter 2022!

Wow, is it possible that three years have passed since I last posted in this thread? What with the COVID pandemic and political and social upheavals of the the last couple of years, the time has just shot by. And of course if I thought things were profoundly out of whack on April 21st of 2019, the events of the past 15 months almost make 2019 seem like the good old days. 

But that is the way the Bible says things will go down towards the end. The exponential disappearance of all that makes sense is upon us. God has sent strong delusion to take the place of common sense ---
2 Thessalonians 2:9-12
9 The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders,
10 and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might    be saved.
11 And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie,
12 that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

'THE LIE' of course, is men choosing to think they can turn their backs on Him and work the out affairs of this world on their own. From this comes such foolishness as is routinely heard on the 24/7 news loop; such as men thinking up the false notion which is global warming. And then they suppose they can fix a problem that doesn't even exist using wait for it,--- science. The full list of equally destructive nonsense in the form of foreign and domestic policy would be too lengthy to put up here.

The speed at which the lunacies are being both hatched and widely supported since 2019's 'noticeable slide';  has become more like a not-so-thrilling ride on The Beast at King's Island. This world is judged and thus things will only get much worse as the end grows near.

So thanks be to God that He is Risen! Through His resurrection we know we who believe can look forward to eternal life with Him.
