In such a climate, God’s enemies become increasingly vocal in their opposition and mocking of God’s kingdom. Today, there is little left that can shock us anymore. Can you imagine 200 years ago how the nation would have responded to a president committing oral sex with a young intern in the Oval Office or candidates for the highest offices distributing pictures of their private parts? Not that former leaders were always paragons of virtue but at least there was some regard for modesty and a sense of decorum. Look at the character reflected in the conduct of our political leaders.
In one generation the cultural climate has dramatically shifted so that sexual promiscuity and perversions are the heart and soul of our entertainment diet. It’s not Leave it to Beaver and Father Knows Best. Just look at the TV shows that are most popular today. As you look around each week and see lawlessness increase and depravity rampant, it certainly doesn’t give the Christian good vibes. Often God’s people can be really down in the dumps as they look at the deplorable condition of God’s kingdom in its present condition here on earth.
BANK ON GOD’S PROMISES FOR THE FUTURE RATHER THAN THE GLOOMY PROSPECTS IN THE PRESENT
