There is a pattern here.

God creates, man screws up, God reboots.

First, there was Adam and Eve. They screw up. God drives them out of Eden and reboots religion as sacrifice and atonement through burnt offerings (Cain and Abel).

Second, men become evil. God kills most in a flood. Hopes that will work.

Third, men become evil again. God chooses Abraham. Starts religion based on burnt offerings (see Abraham, Isaac, and ram), a Chosen People by matrilineal descent, as well as detailed laws (see Moses).

Fourth, Chosen People become faithless. God sends Christ to replace burnt offerings with the eucharist and replaces detailed laws with principles of faith and the Holy Spirit.

That’s not working out, so next comes the Apocalypse.

God’s quality control with respect to His creations seems pretty poor. Four failures already with more to come.

The day is coming when He WILL establish the perfect sin free world.

But as long as men have a sin nature and a will and they choose evil over repentance and forgiveness, there will be consequences for their decisions and actions.

Uh actually I believe it’s a fore-shadowing of the end times.
with another re-boot whereby the deep state boot is lifted
and justice is applied worldwide.
