Technorati Tag Video Shows By-Standers Ignoring Hit-And-Run Victim

Hit-And-Run Victim Left For Dead
This is a shocking, unbelieveable story which reveals the deplorable and sinful condition of the human race and the dangerous times we are living in. An elderly man is run over by a hit and run driver, left for dead, and witnesses and cars pass him by and do nothing to help him.

HARTFORD, Conn. - A 78-year-old man is tossed like a rag doll by a hit-and-run driver and lies motionless on a busy city street as car after car goes by. Pedestrians gawk but appear to do nothing. One driver stops briefly but then pulls back into traffic. A man on a scooter slowly circles the victim before zipping away.

The chilling scene — captured on video by a streetlight surveillance camera — has touched off a round of soul-searching in Hartford, with the capital city's biggest newspaper blaring "SO INHUMANE" on the front page and the police chief lamenting: "We no longer have a moral compass."
"We have no regard for each other," said Chief Daryl Roberts, who on Wednesday released the video in hopes of making an arrest in the accident that left Angel Arce Torres in critical condition. Continues

When Jesus disciples asked Jesus to tell them the sign of thy coming, and the end of the world in Matthew's Gospel Chapter 24, one of the signs that Jesus gave was:

And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. Matthew 24:12

Paul also wrote to Timothy of the horrible condition of humanity that would prevail upon the earth in the last days:

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good.Traiters, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God. II Timothy 3:1-4 Sounds like what we are seeing all around us today.

We are seeing all of the signs that Jesus spoke in Matthew 24 would occur, accelerating as we come to the end of the age before His return, and we are heading for great tribulation. How much longer will God allow the sinful condition in humanity we are now witnessing before Jesus returns no one knows. We do know that God is a merciful God and is not willing that any should perish. "The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance." II Peter 3:9

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16
Romans 10:9-10 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
