20. The World in Chaos God's Purpose for Man

Chapter 20
The World in Chaos

The Rapture of the Church will come at a time when the world will be crying out for world peace because it will be in such chaos.  While the following signs give evidence that the Rapture of the Church is at hand, many will say that these events have come and gone over the centuries and the Rapture of the Church never happened.  While that is true in part, we need to remember that these events have been localized over parts of the earth.  When we see these destructive events happening world wide, we know the time is at hand. 

• The whole world will be in chaos (2 Tim 3:1-5; Matt 24:4-8)
• Crime and lawlessness will be rampant (2 Tim 3:1-5)
• Famine and poverty in various places (Luke 21:11),
• Pestilence, plagues, sickness and disease will be rampant throughout the earth (Luke 21:11)
• Sexual perversions will be extreme (Rom 1:24-27),
• Strange weather anomalies (Matt 24:4-8)
• Increase of earthquakes (Matt 24:4-8)
• Increase of wars around the world (Matt 24:7-8; Luke 21:10; Matt 24:4-8)   
• Apostasy within the Church where many are leaving their faith.  (2 Thess 2:3)
• People will be leaving the churches in groves (1 Tim 4:1; Matt 24:24)
• False teachers in the Church where many pastors are no longer preaching the truths of the Word of God (1 John 2:8; Matt 24:11; 1 Tim 4:1; Matt 24:24)

Fear controls the world

We are living in the day when evil is good and good is evil to where the above events have become the norm of our society.  Fear controls many with the recent COVID pandemic that has overtaken the world.  People in parts of the world found themselves in governmental lockdown, and when they left their homes, they hid themselves behind masks, hoping not to get infected by others.  To counteract the virus, an experimental drug was rushed into effect, hoping it would be the vaccine to kill off the virus.  In fear, people ran to get innoculated, only to discover the experimental drug didn't protect them as was hoped for.  So more and more vaccines were given.  So fear continues.

The United States is divided by racial tension, controlled by hate groups who riot, damaging businesses and maiming or killing human lives.  We are in a generation where many children have not been taught right from wrong by their parents and they do exactly as they please.  The public schools and colleges are teaching a godless agenda, and as such, the children of today are rebelling against their parents, against society, and against the government.  Lawlessness has brought about crimes which has increased expedentially as many cities are demanding defunding their police.

Homosexuality and gay marriages are now legal and the norm of society wants to call it alternative and acceptable.  Many are pushing their agenda to where they are favored over straight people. Transgenderism is heavily on the rise from adults all the way to some parents who are encouraging sex changes in their children as young as six years old.  In addition, there are those who have gender identity phobias, and they are legally allowed to change their minds, at will, which sex they want to be at that particular time.  This gender crisis has affected sports from children to adults, creating dangers on the field of play, with school showers, the use of public bathroom facilities, which has created rape among the innocent who are forced to endure such abuse. 

Illegal drugs have doubled and quad-tripled over the past few years as drug trafficking has become big business around the world - with the United States being on the top of the list.  People kill to pursue the drugs to peddle, and for those who are trapped into its grip, many die from overdose, while others lives are ruined.

What once was across waters in foreign third-world countries, the United States has become a large sex trade in the world as girls and woman (and even boys) are being kidnapped or enticed under false pretense with promises of a brighter future only to find themselves in the grips of pedophilia haven.  Their innocense has been stripped with little hopes of a better future.

Abortion on demand that began in 1973 with the court case of Roe vs. Wade has also grown to where 62,000,000 innocent babies have been aborted.    Sadly, science uses using aborted baby tissue and organs for ingredients in vaccines, drugs, cosmetics, and even some food.  This only increases the demand for more abortions.  It is a billions of dollars business, only to grow even more.  Only recently has Roe versus Wade been overturned by the Supreme Court, having the decision of abortion legality being placed in the hands of the State.  Liberal states, as well as the liberal administration government, however, are looking for every possible way to offer legal abortions in or around conservative states who have declared abortion illegal. 

Where is the Church Today?

There are 384,000 churches across America.  Sadly, a large portion of them do not preach the Gospel from the pulpit, creating social ministries instead of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.  During the shut-down with the COVID pandemic in 2020, most of the churches across America closed for several months - even up to a year under the control of the government.  Even to date, many are still closed and never reopened.  Some churches created online services, and it seemed to have filled that void for a season.  In time, however, people got lazy on Sunday mornings and didn't turn on their television.  On average, churches across America have lost 20 - 30% of their congregation of people who never returned. 

The Bible is specific in that the Church should assemble together - even in times of fear.  It is critical for the Church to gather together to encourage one another, pray together, help one another grow in the things of the Lord, hear and grow in the Word, and just be together so the world doesn't pull you away from the things of the Lord.  

We are definitely living in a day where evil is good and good is evil

The world is primed and ready for the Tribulation Period to come upon the earth.  If Satan has his way, the Rapture of the Church will appear to those left upon the earth to be alien abduction of millions of people from the earth.  The world will be in total fear of an alien war.  This will open the door for a One World Government to join together to be at war with aliens from other planets.
