Current Events

How strongly do you feel that Russia was the aggressor in Georgia?

Would you find any similarities with this demonstration in Hawaii?

How would this relate to a professor’s views of Republica Del Norte?

From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? (James 4:1 KJV)

That applies to nations as well as to individuals. What should our response be?

Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well. (1 Peter 2:13-14 KJV)

Are the number of conflicts in our world indicative of the nearness of His return?

And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. (Matthew 24:6 KJV)

And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. (Mark 13:7 KJV)

But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by. (Luke 21:9 KJV)

I do not wish to count the number of boundaries redrawn, the renaming of countries, the deaths of defenders as well as offenders – just within my lifetime. It would appear that every square inch of our earth had been re-measured and renamed if we count from the beginning. So, what do we do?

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. (Luke 21:36 KJV)

Thank you for taking time to read and comment on the blog. Comments should take into consideration this verse: Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. (Philippians 4:8 KJV)
