In the beginning of creation, God bequeathed to mankind a world of perfection and peace where humans are expected to live in harmony with one another. Fast-forward to the present world of today, and you will see it is a complete contrast to God’s initial plan. We see a world plunged into utter chaos, crime, turmoil, etc. The reason for these transformations is, however, not far fetched

In fact, it is in fulfilment of the scriptures that as earth grows near its dying days, the world would be thrown into stark peril (2 Timothy 3:1). It went further to give an apt description of the evil to be perpetrated by mankind.

Let’s take a look at the unprecedented height of immorality in the society today—incest between relatives, legalisation of homosexuality and abortion in many countries, traitors, persecutors, despisers, etc. There are also flagrant disobedience by children to parents and constituted authorities, increase rate of cultism among the younger generation, abuse of drugs, alcohol and all manner of addictions. There are blasphemers of the church of God, and that which saddens me most is the recent spate of money ritual, which is rife among today’s youths. Every one of these variables is perfect fulfilment of the scriptures and indications that the world is heading towards twilight.

We have to be reminded that no one is immune to the sin and peril of the last days, because we are all offspring and descendants of the first man, who by virtue of his disobedience in the Garden of Eden passed that seed of sin and wickedness down the generations. The only one true way we can be free and insulated from these evils is through Jesus Christ, Who was conceived not by man but by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

It is pertinent to make that decision to ensure your safety here in the world and assurance of a joyous eternity with the Lord. There is basically no fun and reward in a life of sin, which breeds only guilt, death and eternal anguish (Ezekiel 18:20. Would you rather continue in sin, living with the guilt it brings? Would you rather lose eternal happiness or embrace salvation and enjoy peace of mind, safety in the Lord and ultimately fellowship with our Lord in eternity? Christ died for our sins (1Corinthians 15:3). His blood was shed for our sake (Matthew 26:28). It is the only way known to man to escape the dangers of this present world and earn a place in glorious eternity. Won’t you rather do the needful now? Go on your knees and bare it all to Christ, repent of your sins. (Act 3:19). Be committed to your decision and you shall continue to have victory, peace of mind and joy of a place in heavenly eternity.
Peace be with you.
