Cato, a Roman statesman, observed thus: "We must lay hold on the best opinions of men, as a raft, to take us over the dangerous waters of life; unless we can find a more sure word of God, that will take us much more safely." Sadly, the Romans did not find that sure word of God, so their empire was destroyed.
Today we live in a dangerous world, mismanaged by idiotic opinions. for no one understands the perils of life.
As a consequence, the world is on a course of self destruction. When Jesus disciples asked him, "What are the signs of your coming, and the end of the world?" He did not hesitate to tell them (Matt. 24:3-12). We are 26 years away from the end of the world.
The Signs
The first sign the decip;es are to look for is an army of deceived men claiming to represent Jesus. Today, we have an estimated 600 million evangelicals, who have arrogated to themselves the title, ministers of Christ. But to represent Christ, one must have the spirit of Christ. For the words of the Chosen Vessel are these: "Now if any man have not the spirit of Christ, he is none of his"(Rom 8: 9). Yet, dispite that emphatic statement, an army of men without the spirit Christ, are deceiving gullible people into believing that they belong to Christ.
