"The secrets of the Lord
are for those that fear Him"
Psalm 25:14
SECRET: Sin Destroys our ability to "understand."
It's an extremely exciting time to be a Christian* in the United States of America, here in the initial stages of the 21st century. Why? Because the seeds of "last days persecution" are being sown…even as I write!
Whatever your point of reference, Hollywood , CNN, CNBC, lyrics to songs, topics of books, subjects of movies, television sitcoms, pop-culture in general, Supreme Court decisions, or the words and attitudes and decisions of the president himself, we are seeing a radical fulfillment of the prophetic words written 2000 years ago:
"In the last days there will be mockers,
following after their own ungodly lusts."
Jude 18
How is it possible? And why is it happening? Well, actually, it's a secret! A secret that the word of God, the Bible, clearly reveals…
SIN TAKES AWAY UNDERSTANDING!
*By "Christian I am not referring to the multitudes of "professing christians" who "honor God with their lips but by their deeds they deny Him" (see Titus 1:15-16). I'm talking about real, biblically defined followers of Jesus. –Brad
