1072.1 Experiencing the Last Days

This message looks at how the transition into the last days has taken place without being obvious. It opens with thoughts of being mad at God for not getting what we want, and then moves into how life has changed in 100 years, and closes with where the energy comes from in a nuclear reaction.
From Genesis Chapter four until the invention of the automobile life on earth had remained basically unchanged. The vast majority of people traveled only the distance that a horse could take them and back in a day, this became there world, but in just one hundred years man went from a fast horse all the way to the moon.
Just as the proverbial frog in slowly warming water, we see the change as a benefit. The cold frog enjoyed the benefits of warm water until he lost the ability to react to the impending danger.
The last days are marked by perilous times and evil men. One preacher said, every bad thing on earth is a good thing twisted. This is to say that men will find a way to use, or corrupt everything possible to their own advantage. The Tribulation will be a time of controlling mankind by the most evil beings in existence, namely the Anti Christ and his followers. No doubt he will use the most advanced technology in his efforts to enforce his will.
As bad as all this will be, the believers are told in Luke 12:28, "And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh". For us the word to focus on is "begin". It has begun, now the question is are you fearful or believing?
