| Fast Food From the God Box: "Laodicean Era" |
In Daniel 12:4 it reads, "…even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.”
Because of the internet, mass transportation and other technological advancements we can travel "to and fro" across the globe and our knowledge is greatly expanding. With this ever increasing knowledge comes also increased opinion and many types of character.
For the first time ever in history, many of the world's religions actually agree on one thing. That being that we are now living in the last and final era. Even those with no religion at all seem to agree that either conflict, disaster and change is right around the corner through events like global warming and nuclear war. What follows is change - described in many ways such as Paradise, Heaven, Transformation, Spiritual Awakening, Immortality, Peace and for some the extinction of all mankind.
Similar to other doctrines, the Bible describes this climate as the Laodicean Era. The name means, "the people rule, judge and decide." In such a climate, politicians cater to the whim of the people’s demands by sitting on fences and not making stands. CEOs must keep their shareholders happy. It's an age when the people have a voice and an opinion.
Thus here we are Blogging! As soon as a Blogger clicks "Publish" their thoughts go out for all to see and enables the individual to have a voice that is heard and most importantly, it counts.
If it counts, then eventually something is added up. What does your Blog add up to?

I guess, my blog adds up to me. Or that is the idea anyway. It is supposed to be a place to air my thoughts, concerns and opinions. Whether I succeed in that depends on the day, I suppose.

Aaahh... my new friend... my Blogs are meant to
1) Evoke passion and emotion.
2) Through the archives, offer help.
3) Offer direction and hope.
Oh - and an occasional snark attack :)

I do believe that we are living in the end times. We had an earthquake here in Oklahoma yesterday.

I do too Robin, today more than ever. So much is happening in line with what the Bible predicted and quickly.
20 years ago the Cold War ended and the threat of the "Gog and Magog" war of Ezekiel seemed far away. Russia and Iran were never going to go to war with Israel.
Yet today - yikes, Iran is calling for Israel to be wiped off the map. They're going Nuclear with Russia's help. Russia is supplying missiles and weapons to protect their investments in both Syria and Iran.
Check out two favorite Christian reporters. www.jvim.com and www.hallindsey.org
Particulary their video programs if you can - or catch them on TV. They back todays headlines up with Biblical verse.
Of course, no body can know which day or hour - but we are told, we will know the season.
