Not sure. In the days of Noah, all the thoughts of men were only evil continually.

Are we there yet, the church being excluded, because if you include the church, then it would never be as in the days of Noah?

However, there are many I would like so see saved before the rapture comes. Virtually my entire family and mr. mm’s entire family remain unsaved, despite ears of praying for their salvation and opportunities to witness.

I KNOW they have heard. We made sure to have a clear gospel witness at our wedding. And God has worked some amazing miracles inn their lives, and at least one sister acknowledges it. But come to Jesus? Nope. Not yet.

I know we are not supposed to be jealous or envy, but I do envy those who witness to their family and see results. And people who can eat. If that’s wrong, then I guess I’ll have to deal with that. It’s not like I envy their ability to sin. It’s things that are not sin that are actually good, where my struggle is.

There are hundreds and hundreds of people I know of that are most likely lost and headed towards a Christless Eternity if they continue on the road they are on. Full of stubbornness, pride, belief in lies, and just plain evil.

It hurts me. I can’t imagine how much it hurts The Lord.

Like you, these folks have heard - they just don’t get it or don’t believe it applies to them since they are already ‘saved’ or so they think.

I’ve always had envy issues myself. Looking at these millionaires getting away with murder literally while the rest of us play by the rules. I get tired of that - though the answer to that issue is well written multiple times in the Psalms and Proverbs. They’re just playing out their time and will get what is coming to them soon enough.

Ceasescu and Castro come to mind, along with just about every CEO in the world.

We’re praying really hard for you sister!
