Have you noticed the perplexity of the world's problems today? The Lord Jesus Christ told us this would be one of the signs that would occur just before the coming of the Son of Man. Luke's Gospel records the words of the Lord.
"And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring." Luke 21:25.
Perplexed means to be filled with uncertainty, full of difficulty. Puzzled. A problem or a situation difficult to resolve. Strong's Greek Dictionary describes perplexity as to have no way out, i.e., be at a loss (mentally):-- (stand in) doubt, be perplexed.
Most assuredly, this describes the condition of the entire world today. The American financial system is falling apart at the seams. There are calls for a one world global system by the UN chief , and when this happens, national sovereignty will be completely lost as all nations will fall in line, and even a call by Gordon Brown for a new global financial order. The dictator Chavez is even proclaming the route to salvation of the world is through socialism. I can almost hear the footsteps of the son of perdition arriving on the scene to solve all of the world's ills. The problems the world faces today are far too great and difficult for single governments to solve as governmental corruption and greed runs rampant. Record setting natural disasters on a worldwide basis are occurring at an alarming rate and magnitude.
In essence, what we are witnessing is a financial Armageddon, with Great Britain and the United States of America experiencing a financial meltdown that will have a domino effect all around the world. I don't believe in coincidences as nothing is a coincidence with God. It just so happens that Tony Blair and George W. Bush have been the two biggest pushers of a land for peace deal, dividing up God's chosen land and city of Jerusalem, Israel, and both nations are experiencing God's judgment because of their persistent push to divide the land of Israel. It's later than most think.
Christians need not fear all that we see happening on a global scale today, but now more than ever, we need to be in tune with the Holy Spirit and keep our eyes fixed on Jesus and His Word, and watch and pray always that we may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Now is the time for us to be "salt" and "light" wherever the Lord has planted us in a dark, dark world lost and crumbling and sinking in its sin.
Jesus said: Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled. Friends, we are living in the generation that is seeing the fulfillment of all of the things Jesus spoke of in His Parable of the Fig Tree in Luke 21 and time is very, very short. We need to be about the Lord's business, winning souls, as nothing in this world really is more important and has such a high priority as this in the short time we have left here
