We are the last generation












This scripture was written around A.D.66-67 by the Apostle Paul but isn’t it a vivid picture of today’s generation of the world and its peoples?

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
2 Timothy 3 (KJV )

We are the last generation living very near the end of our time on earth. But you may say that’s your belief it is not mine.
The fact is whether we believe or whether we don’t believe the evidence is in the picture and pictures don’t lie.

You have heard the old saying one picture is worth a thousand words read the words and see the picture.
The fact is that sin kills and wickedness destroys look around you and see the picture.

In the beginning God created and painted His beautiful picture of the heavens and the earth and then He stepped back looked it all over and saw that it was good.
And then at some point Satan entered the picture vandalized Gods beautiful good picture and began to paint his own evil picture over Gods picture of beauty.

And so today it’s hard to see a picture of life and beauty when sin, death and evil are constantly pushed before our eyes...

The devil introduced sin and wickedness into Gods beautiful world of good. And sin and wickedness covered Gods beautiful painting that shined forth brilliantly the light of Gods glory.

Sin and wickedness has covered the earth with gross darkness and hid the beautiful picture that was once seen here.
Sin and wickedness brought death and destruction to our world that was once alive in the beauty of Gods marvelous light.

There are a few little night lights still shinning here and there but they are going to have to increase in number and get much brighter in order to change this gross darkness back into light .
Look at the picture around you the possibility of that happening   doesn’t look so good.    

However the scriptures teach us that with God all things are possible and with God nothing is impossible.
That means that those of us who still walk in faith and the light of the beauty of God’s love and grace do still have hope of seeing the picture of our country and our world change.

It’s not over until it’s over so let’s hope, pray walk in the light as He is our light and let our little lights shine exposing the darkness in our little area of the world and maybe in doing our part in making the world a better place we will be encouragement to others in helping them to come back to the beauty of life that God meant for us all to live.
