The World Is Seeking a Sign [Part 1] by Inteltower: 6:18pm On Mar 26, 2020
Hello dear Brethren is really been a travailing times for we humans in the world; whether believers or unbelievers.

other than this new epidemic called Corona virus the growing evils and troubles of the world increase in variety. The rich, talented and powerful we look up to have their agendas in taking advantage of bad times even in a way the architects of the world troubles; for this is no speculation/conspiracy but by carnal nature we know man (we know ourselves). so we can assume and also clearly see that a majority on top are wrestling for world power as millions die, some selfishly are married to whatever science can off them to preserve their lives in exchange for money and to some others to usher in a new world order.

A Christian filled by the Holy Ghost knows that in our fallen and depraved nature that being a leader in power can be compromising and catastrophic. so for those who look up to them is like saying let's jump off this cliff if they do.

A lot of people here and offline blame, complain, mock & curse God and scorn & mock the believers.
but We the Christians are never surprised because it is not NEW.
Our depraved nature of being against God and what he stands for, what his desire is, who he really is and how he does his things has always manifested in various accounts of the Bible.
the people who mocked Noah
The Israelites that mocked Jeremiah
the Pharisees that mocked Christ on the cross
The Israelites that always complained when Moses was taking them to promising land
the unbelievers in Sodom and Gomorrah
etc

so what is new I ask the atheist ?

Nineveh was the outstanding city I respect so much in bible when they were warned by God and repented of their ways...they didn't need countless of church services and door to door sermons to just simply
believe
accept their wrong doing
and repent.

outstanding. Even the messenger that came with the message never liked the people of that city. we all know the story. but it points to the fact a prophet like Jonah never cared but preached the message and surprisingly they repented out of their own free will.
they allowed God's word into their hearts.

Now as I observe the mass hysteria happening in the world becos of Corona what do we find ?
people turning it into something to joke about in short videos (to show you our depravity of madness)
Fear, anxiety and selfishness come to life as we portray the rules of the jungle
and finally people looking for a sign or hope or cure


this last one got me...We humans will always look up to these 3 things when our own abilities fail us and we can't trust those in power.

most of the haters of God are seeking for sign or someone or something to relieve them of their uncertainties, troubles, pain, etc

its every humans crack/addiction they seek because there is a void in us and we need something external to fill it.

so this seeking will invariably take them to the unknown that some of them are rejecting.

money, science, religion (not faith), houses, relationships, suicide, cars, sex, drugs, etc will never satisfy a depraved Soul

for unbelievers what will ?

Because they cant offer their own solutions to the problem of Man; his depravity (the fallen state)
but are busying doing what they do best reacting under the influence of their hungry state.



to be continued...
