[QUOTE="P. D., post: 1504167, member: 23072"] There certainly seems to be a rise in apocalyptic events. I can't shake the thought that, if Christ is logos, wouldn't anti-Christ be something like chaos? Isn't that what we're seeing? The popular cultural narrative has become unmoored from any empirical or logical reality. All our rulers know is power, and they will say anything to get it. Truth isn't even a consideration for them. On the other hand, all of the above could simply be a sign that God is removing His graces from the rulers of the earth. They are falling deeper into sins of the flesh which will eventually consume and expose them. The last 4 years has seen a great revealing of corruption, lies, and unimaginable wickedness of those in high places. Even atheists (like I used to be) are finding it difficult to explain the depths of depravity in secular terms. They're driven by more than money and power. They're driven by the demons to whom they've sold their souls. With the revealing there has been a corresponding increase in holiness. I heard an exorcist report that young children were spontaneously reaching high levels of mental prayer [I]without ever being taught or encouraged to do so![/I] He said that such things haven't been seen for a thousand years! Saints are rising to meet the challenges of our day. Whether it's the end times or not, God is certainly still with us. [/QUOTE]
