Only because we’re allowing it to happen.
The times and seasons are foreordained.
But yes, we let Satan loose on the planet.
Way back in the Garden of Eden.
Now there are things that must happen.
And IMHO we’re nearing those days.
That’s why everything is upside-down.
Revelation 5:4-6
21st Century King James Version
4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.
5 And one of the elders said unto me, “Weep not! Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book and to loose the seven seals thereof.”
6 And I beheld, and lo, in the midst of the throne and the four living beings, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent forth into all the earth.
