While the events and general lawlessness testifies that we are in the final days before the Day of the LORD, the fact that the great sign in the heavens described in Revelation 12:1-2 actually will happen sometime during September 23-24, 2017, kind of nails down the fact that the time is very short.

The basic principle of the world is rebellion...the Bible speaks of "the spirit that now works in the children of disobedience" (Ephesians 2:2). That spirit is the spirit of Satan himself and it manifests itself in rebellion against God and against His Son...this attitude of the world is expressed in Psalm 2:2..."The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against His anointed."

This heart attitude of rebellion against God and His authority expresses itself in lawlessness...the Bible says that the world will become more and more lawless as we approach the end of this age.

I'm not sure I agree.

The lawlessness we see today is a few individuals, blown out of proportion by the media and a lot of governmental entities .... not necessarily the general population .... which is what I think scripture is pointing to.

Of course, there has never been abounding lawlessness before, so you might be onto something.

Or not. Very likely, not. But still, accept Christ into your heart. Just in case there is a rapture tomorrow. Or, more likely, God takes you some other way.

IMO, conservatives jumped the shark when they embraced Internet porn. It’s been downhill ever since for the family and marriage.
