| When . . . |
|

When immorality is accepted in society as normal, those who live moral lives will be considered abnormal.
When self-destructive behaviors win men's approval, those who are struggling to overcome their self-destructive tendencies will be disapproved of.
When tolerance is touted far and wide, those who courageously stand on Biblical principles will be called intolerant.
When traditional values are stricken from public life, those who defend them will be described as radical.
When insanity encompasses our culture, those who's lifestyles are sane will be the ones the world labels insane.
"Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake."
Are you prepared to be disapproved of by our culture and to be called abnormal, intolerant, radical, and insane? Or will you just blend in? |

Excellent Truth, amen. This post reminds me of the scripture in 2Timothy 3.

| Yep, I think it is already happening, apodemeo. |

As it was in the days of Noah so will it be when the Son of Man will come.
In the days of Noah every inclination of the thoughts of man's heart was only evil continually.
We are aalmost there if not already there. |

| apodemeo this phrase to me is says that their minds were all on the things of the flesh. Their thoughts were not towards God but were evil. Jeremiah said "the heart above all things is deceitfully wicked and who can know it?" (the depths of depravity). Yeah you are basically talking about the carnally minded. Roms 8 speaks of that of which I know you are familar with. |

| Already started, getting worse. |

| Apodemeo & Brother Todd, is what you're speaking of possibly Mystery Babylon? That is what came to mind as I was reading your conversation here, when it comes to drinking & marrying. |

| The main thing is, guys, that we believers be different than the world. We are to be a counter culture to 21st Century American as we live and love like Jesus did. |

| I was just looking at the web site for Oberlin College in OH and they have posted on their site reviews of porn. Confirmation that this world had ditched decency! My daughter is looking for colleges and it is scary. Many colleges that claim to be Christian, promote non-Christian and anti-Christian attitudes and behaviors. What a mixed up world. |

| Woe to them that call good evil and evil good. |
