There are many signs that the end of the age is either upon us, or nearly so. Just one that I speak of, is one
that I have not seen too many speak of, so I thought I would address it, and listen to the thoughts on the matter
from others.
Prior to Christ entering the world through a child named Jesus, the jews, the promised special people, were
becoming more self righteous (in the religous circles, i.e. the pharisee, saducees, and teachers of the law,
and the scribes), less caring of others, and more critical of others. The general people were worried about
the problems of the day, unwanted and considered unfair taxes from Rome, too many morals from the roman empire
affecting the faith of its people.
Today in the Christian world, many of the people involved in the religous affairs of the day (like us here, and
those in elder positions in various churches, and in rarer occasions, even the sheppards of the flock) have
become more self righteous, less caring of others, and more critical of others. The general people,are worried
about the problems of the day, unwanted and considered unfair increasing taxes from thier governments, too many
morals that are popular for the age having corrupted the general affairs that occur in daily life even amoungst
those amoungst the christian faithful.
The similarites between the faithful in Isreal shortly before Christ, during Christ's life in the flesh, and
shortly afterword are IMO very similar to the general shape of the christian world today. The romans destroyed
Isreal not long after the death of Christ (AD 60), and the keys of the kingdom transfered from the Sanhedrin, to
those elders in the Christian church, beginning with the Apostles, and the bishops after that.
What is going to happen to our churchs in the near future if we (as a whole) fail to learn from the lessons that
the faithful in Isreal also refused to learn from and that incured the wrath of God and the destruction (not of
the people of faith which was dispersed) of the promised land's institutions for 2000 years?
