Mad World

 

The world around us seems to be going mad. Mass shootings, make up genders (I have a wife and kids, but feel like a woman so I am a woman), child sex changes, radical hormone therapies, declining birth rates, banning stoves, banning beef & rice, banning washers, and more. 

The words of St. Anthony are coming true, “A time is coming when men will go mad, and when they see someone who is not mad, they will attack him, saying, 'You are mad; you are not like us.”

(St. Antony the Great). This has even been fulfilled literally by people assaulting people in public, and the mad person gets free and the citizen who fights to protect themselves gets locked up. 

We are seeing a great reversal, where criminals are allowed to commit crimes with no consequences and good citizens are treated like criminals use to be.  Scripture speaks of these seasons, “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet

and sweet for bitter!” (Isaiah 5:20-21), “For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things,” (Romans 1:21-23). The words of Jesus especially ring true, “This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil,” (John 3:19), “Be careful, then, that the light within you is not darkness,” (Luke 11: 35), and “If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!“ (Matthew 6:23). For these people trying to change everything are calling darkness light! The darkness is so great in them because they believe it is the light of tolerance, real self, and expression, when it is the fruit of Satan tearing humanity apart! The evil one has everything being questioned that has been accepted since the first humans! And the goal is to undermine and destroy The Image of God, which is all humans (Genesis 1:26-28), for children are becoming sterile via hormone therapies and genital surgeries, and birth rated are dropping due to abortions and contraceptives. 

The world has gone mad,  nothing is sacred, “For people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred,” (2 Timothy 3:2); an example of this madness is one week it is women are better than men, next week what a woman is cannot be defined. This madness is spirit of lawlessness at work, “For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work, but the one now restraining will do so until he is out of the way,” (2 Thessalonians 2:7), causing humanity to lose its sanity so that the Man of Sin will step in to rescue the world from its madness that his spirit created, and become a false savior. 

This is the moment, we must set ourselves like steel in the faith, clinging to Jesus and His Testimony (Gospel, Revelation 14:12) as the madness spreads! Hold fast, endure to the end (Matthew 24:13) in the true faith! Amen.
