Right now as we speak, the government is Lying to us and taking our money with all intention to take us down. America is runned by a muslim Terrorist ( YES I SAID IT ) and he is Not working for us. Barack Obama is working for the enemy. The government already has the mark of the beast ready in this earth. Obama and the rest of the evil Government will try their hardest to force this on us. NEVER TAKE THE MARK NEVER NEVER EVER!!! Keep Christ Jesus in your hearts and forget about the earth. This is my message. My eyes are opened and my own family thinks Im insane, well im not. I know what is coming to the earth and I know in my Heart, Jesus Christ is the savior and he is my Lord and Savior. We need to Repent and be serious right now. Christians are being arrested for praying and preaching on the streets. We need to Stand up for Christ Jesus and Never ever ever fall to this world. NEVER EVER Obey the world. Obey Jesus Christ. Obey God almighty. Ask the Lord to protect you from evil. You will be protected. Pray with faith my brothers and sisters.

The Lord Jesus Christ wants you to see this. This is our Brother in Christ and he is a real prophet, and he doesnt want money or you to buy a book, he wants you to read the Holy Bible and pray. Watch this..

Good. Going up in the rapture is Way better than going through Tribulation. I pray that my family's eyes open before its too late for them. I really want the rapture soon my friend. I am ready.

So you believe the world is worse off today - 2000+ years after Pentecost, than before the Holy Spirit began justifying and sanctifying the hearts of His people? You sure seem to be selling God short.

All I know man, is that We need to repent and repent again. Jesus is coming very soon now. What do you mean selling him short? I dont know what you are talking about. I believe the man in the video is a real prophet and Jesus is coming.

Of course it's worse off today. It doesn't have anything to do with what God has done - He is perfect! It is what men have done through their free will.

I have no doubt that Jesus is returning as well, but I am trusting that the justifying and sanctifying work of the Spirit of God in the hearts of His followers has made a tremendous difference in the world over the past 2000+ years. The idea that the world is getting worse and worse makes God look weak, rather than strong. His Kingdom Come, His Will be Done - ON EARTH as in Heaven! The world is more full of Christian charity today than in any other point in history, and will continue to affect the world in a positive way until He returns.

How is that possible? Does the Holy Spirit not affect the world in a positive way? The world full of people separated from God for centuries was much more barbaric and lost than it is today. The very fact that we can live together and not murder our neighbor daily is due to the fact that God is at work in the world.

It's possible because men are evil, Aspen. I can not even believe we are having this conversation, do you need proof the world is evil and there are atrocities and iniquities going on every second of everyday?

Because you have a neighbor that doesn't want to kill you means the rest of the world is safe and all is well?

I cannot believe we are having this conversation either - honestly! You have nullified the work of Spirit, completely. Apparently, in your mind, God has made zero impact on the hearts of men. Jesus told us to love God and our neighbor / told us that the Kingdom of God was in our hearts / He provided His Spirit - and according to you, it not only made no difference - it made the world worse off!

Men in relationship with God are being redeemed.

God is touching Spirits now as we speak. The Lord is saving people and telling messages through people, but this world is becoming corrupt and God will destroy this earth. We need to stop judging each other and focus on our eternity with Jesus.

And every time God touches another soul, the world becomes a better place. It is impossible to believe both ideas; God is impacting the lives of millions AND the world is getting worse.

Fear mongering.

Do you really think that storing food is going to stop God's wrath? Ridiculous. Absurd.

right side of the mouth: "God is going to destroy the world any minute!". Left side of the mouth: "Store food! Prepare for the Tribulation! We need to prepare to survive!"

One ant says to another ant: 'the anteater cometh! We are all going to be eaten! There will be no ant left! If you do not listen to me you will die! You must prepare to survive because we are all going to be eaten! No one will survive so make sure you are ready to survive! We will have no food to eat so make sure we have food to eat after we become food for the anteater! You better listen to me or you will die - WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE!"

[sup]19[/sup] We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.

A good website to see how our brothers and sisters are treated in the rest of the world, not better at all, more believers are killed today than any other time in history.

There are more believers today than in anytime in history! More believers today live in areas of the world that are hostile to Christianity than in any other time in history.

The 'evil one' is nothing compared to the power of God. Not even worth mentioning.

I know of many changes for sure. When I was growing up a lot more wives had the option of staying at home, the husband's salaries were enough; the 4 bedroom house we lived in cost $12,000, and we were considered a middle class income family. Nowdays, I don't see how a young couple with just a high school diploma even makes it financially, and that's with both spouses working.

Also, you didn't hear of Christians being perseucted for bringing their Bibles to school with them to read during study hall. Nor did you hear about Christians being persecuted for public prayer. My dad who was a WWII combat Marine even said they weren't allowed to curse in the Marines in the 1940's like he heard in the movie Heartbreak Ridge by Clint Eastwood (during my Viet Nam era, those in the military cursed up a storm). Prior to the 1960's, teens were not as influenced by things like the hippie-drug culture, Communist activists and eastern mystical religious nuts either. And just about everyone I knew in my grade school attended Church on Sunday. Even the majority of stores stayed closed on Sunday, and families had big gatherings on Sundays.

The only thing that still makes historical Christian nations like the U.S. still a Christian nation, is the people in it that still believe on Jesus Christ. But as for much of our leadership today, they represent World Socialism, an anti-Christian ideal.

It is exactly my point.

I accept your apology.

So the United States is worse off for middle income, white Christians compared to the 50's? Perhaps for babyboomers.....I happen to think our culture has been enriched.

Prior to the 1960's, teens were not as influenced by things like the hippie-drug culture, Communist activists and eastern mystical religious nuts either.

Well, everyone was starving in the 30's and dying in WWII during the 40's - um, ever heard of the roaring 20's?

I have nothing to apologize for.

If your idealistic world was a reality, then Christian persecution would be non-existant, unfortunately, as you have shown, that is not the case.

Ah, so if God was making an impact on the world, it would be perfect? Not everyone has responded to Christ's call to redemption - I never said there is no such thing as evil in the world - I said the world is better off today than it has ever been because of the work of Jesus on the cross and the work of the Holy Spirit in the hearts of His people.

Thre is no scripture to support the idea that the world is or is going to get better...there is however individual perspective and to the average person living in the relatively prosperous and peaceful Western world life is pretty good.The perspective one has of the world and the state it is in is directly related to one's comfort level in the world...to be part of the world,in partnership with the world...a friend of the world.

God so loved the world that He gave His only Son.

The entire point of Christianity is to love God and our neighbor. The only way we can love our neighbor is to know we are loved by God - it is really His love working through us - so does God's love go out from us in vain? Did Jesus die for nothing?

Condemnation of the world in the NT is condemnation for human systems - institutional racism, corruption, nepotism, wars for profit, oppression of people for the profit of the powerful, imprisoning the uneducated and minority classes for profit - basically it is human justice rather than God's justice. Choosing to love in the face of human justice is God's answer - His people are invited to help by loving their neighbors.

Hatred for the world requires us to love the people in the world. The world is so much better because we have the hope of the Gospel to counteract human justice.
