Today, there is nothing but bad news in our world, and we just take it all in. That's the kind of world we live in today and it's high time we get our minds off this world and get our minds set on the Word of God. Today, you can't even watch a family show withot a perverted commercial break interrupting the show and you have to cover your children's eyes to protect them from the commercial smut. The reality of our world tries to meet the never ending cravings of the lust of the flesh. Our world is rotton to the core.
Is there anyone that is not tired of crime and sickess,political corruption, hatred and hypocrisy, bigotry and all the ills of this sinful world?
The only way that we can be saved is by God's grace through faith in Jesus Christ. Everytime we go to work, we need God's grace. Everytime we get into our car, we need God's grace. Everytime we cross the street, we need God's grace. No matter what we do or where we go, we need God's grace. And he said unto me, "My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness." 2 Corinth. 12:9
Noe kept on trusting in God's grace as he built the ark before he entered into the ark and all the mockers, [just as we have today] were all swept away. Noe stayed in the ark for seven days while the world outside mocked him, just as they do Bible believing Christians today who steadfastly follow the Word of God. But when that first drop of rain fell, everyone on the outside of the ark wanted to be on the inside with Noe and his family, but it was too late for them.
Are you on the inside of the ark today, living by God's grace? Friends, I give you Jesus Christ now, while there is still time. He is the peace that passeth all understanding in this sin sick world. Jesus is the Word, it is recorded in John 1:1 and the only life insurance you need to possess in this world is the Word of God. You don't need Wall Street and all of its greed.
Jesus warned us in Matthew's Gospel " Lay not up for yourselves treasurers upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal." 6:19,20.
How true the words of Jesus today. World Markets Sink As Recession Fears Spread. Multitudes are losing their worldly fortunes today through deception and corruption of the stock market and Wall Street, with the government now taking over. But with Jesus, not one day of your life will be taken from you until the Will of God in your life has been completed on this earth.
In the days of Noe, the world became so wicked, that God was sorry he made man on the earth and it grieved him at his heart. Genesis 6:6. And the Lord said, "My spirit shall not alway strive with man." Genesis 6:3. We are just about at that point again. How it must grieve God to look upon His world and creation and see the wickedness of today, just like in the days of Noe. How much longer will God strive with man before he sends Jesus to come get his children from this sinful world?
"But as the days of Noe were, so shall the the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark.And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be." Matthew 24:37-39
There is nothing that indicates sin in any of the above scripture descriptions that Jesus mentions would be happening at his return. These things mentioned by Jesus indicate "life as usual" in a sinful world as the Bible clearly tells us that Noe's world was judged and destroyed by God for its wickedness, and rejection of God, just as we see today.
