End of Flourishing Not Times

~End of Flourishing Not Times ~

It has been said and proclaimed throughout the ages since our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ ascended into our eternal home on high, commissioning all to go and make disciples of all nations, that the end of time was at hand. For over two millennia we have been forewarned of the coming judgement upon all, as well as it's coming will be as unknown as a thief in the night. Yet, hundreds of thousands of people have given their lives in fear of these coming prophecies and the weight they carry for all. Such end times are at hand, and have been for over two millennia, and we should ever be ready for the thief and our judgement to come to pass.

It is with this that we can rest assured, while ever diligent to focus our hearts on true word of hope and love. Our time will come to pass, whether by the hands of the world or our Father above, this should not invite us to give ourselves over to animal nature, or primitive living. We think of ourselves as superior beings to all humanity before, yet we condone our actions, cultural behavior, and relational insignificance to that of the wild beasts. Our superiority can only be established by a superior example, one that we are striving towards not ones we believe we have overcome. Drawing on what we are not or we are drawsus closer to that which we are proving. 

Throughout human history there have been wondrous civilizations, advances greater that any technology or philosophy manifested, and brilliant unity among overwhelming uncertainties. As these fantastic groups built grand structures, everlasting monuments, and divine accounts, they also became lost in their direction, only to return to their primitive nature, no more than the predators and prey of the world. Losing understanding of self-control, humbleness, loyalty, submission, and dependency on truth, these growing nations divided themselves, destroying themselves from within leaving weakness to be overcome by those invading our very being. Just as it happens to nations so to it happens to the individuals.

To this day, we have many calling for the end of time, yet how many were shouting for the end only to fall to a lost people, self-loathing and basking in sin, only to find that time was continuing only to destroy such evil from earth. Our time is coming, people of freedom, it has been long put aside and held as forgiveness and love continues to be poured before us. We have been given chance after chance, after chance, to turn from our ways, and we have, only to return in tenfold to the destructive ways we were meant to overcome. In age of oppression we took a stand for those enslaved by a free nation. In time of tyranny we advanced ages with diversity and defeated destruction. In a moment of invasion we overlooked division and unified as one people. Yet, even within years our pride, independence, and fear became greater than that which we once made us better.

This great nation was once under God and thrived with His protection, His provision, and His direction. Now in the land we call our own we are full of sin, selfishness, immorality, no longer identified by grace and love, not even by a people, became we are lost and unable to see, hear, or give truth. This land is upon it's heels and will surely fall from within and then from all those that we have sinned against, just as every other great people has. Only our fall will be more painful and significant for we should have learned, knowing from millennia of lessons that we have no right or claim to superiority. We only have the love and grace of the King on high that was, is, and will always be.

With this account implore all to not find anger with God for he is greater than any, having given not only examples from hundreds of generations before, but also overwhelming opportunities to change our ways, turn back to his promises and love for his children, yet we continued to turn away running. Also, do not fear all that is to come, while his wrath will be known throughout all the lands, his love and promises remain true and alive with those who remain in him. His time is here, his word is truth, should any find themselves apart from him at this time, it is their flourishing that will end not time.

Repent with honest hearts, not to your fathers not to your priests, only true repentance of a pure heart shall be saved by Jesus Christ before the feet of God. Amen
