Why Has The World Become So Evil?
- Thread starter froggy
- Start date
Is it because God is drawing the Holy Spirit out of this world. Less and less people are being saved. God said, My spirit shall not always strive with man.
without commenting on the beliefs underlying your thread...
i'll just say your basic premise is flawed at best... 'become so evil'? really let's take a walk down memory lane for a moment...
spanish inquisition
stalin/lenin and their purges
....
READ THE BIBLE, Jillian. Based upon your responses on this forum, I know that does not interest you. The Fact remains that God is going to remove the "Restraining Hand" of the Holy Spirit from the Earth before the last seven years of the life of the Earth.
As I have stated numerous times on this forum, I believe we have entered into the Last Days (the Last Seven Days of the Earth), and all hell is going to break forth on the Earth in the next few weeks, months and years.
How can you trust the Bible, especially the New Testament, when books were picked because they did not challenge the Roman Empire? Examples, my quote above(Matt.22:21) and the sympathetic way Pontius Pilate was treated. Anything subversive was banned, kept out of the canon and destroyed when found, leading some to bury copies of texts that have only been found in recent centuries. The RCC recognizes this, hence the de-emphasis of the literal word of the book in favor of the spirit of the book. It's puzzling that many Protestant denominations don't recognize this and are adamant about it being the unadulterated Word of God, when it's obviously a work of human construction.
This thread is about choosing following God as to not following him. More people are choosing not to, thus the world is getting more evil.
Not necessarily. Not believing in God doesn't mean you are an evil person. I know a lot of people who are either agnostic or atheist and they are kind, loving individuals without hate in their hearts.

God said " If your not with me your against me" you can't say it any plainer than that.

If someone doesn't believe in God or isn't sure does not make them evil. I have known more so-called Christians who don't live good lives, they are more backstabbing and judgmental than the ones who don't claim to be followers of God. I guess they feel going to church and confessing their sins will erase any bad they do while here on Earth.

In general, more and more of the world are chosing not to follow God, thus chosing evil over good.

You think our world is more evil than it was in 1010 when the CHURCH ran things?
Read some history, Frog.

Is this just your feeling, froggy, or can you back that up with evidence? It certainly does not seem that way to me.
I'm not saying people are evil, i'm saying people are chosing to push God out, thus chosing evil over good.

I know he is, why don't you get to know him and cut out those who falsely represent him, their day is at hand.

No assuming necessary. I've experienced God's grace, love, and glory. He is good.
I've tasted of the fruit of the tree of life. The fruit is good. And it's available to all.

I'd be surprised if church attendance wasn't up, froggy. I think you're just feeling gloomy.

So many deny the truth to themselves just to feel good about what they do.
