Brothers and sisters, the world screams "chaos!"—from London's streets, where arrests pile high at Palestine protests and synagogue attacks spark riots, to America's borders, bloodied by sniper fire at ICE facilities and shadowed by Charlie Kirk’s killing. Leaders like Trump herald "peace and security" with grand plans for Gaza, while Pope Leo XIV calls all faiths "leaven of unity," blurring the Way, the Truth, the Life. Digital IDs rise, promising order—UK’s work checks, U.S.’s Real ID—yet they whisper control, not salvation.
Church, beware!
These are old blueprints, repackaged from Babel’s tower to Rome’s edicts, luring us to man’s "unity" over Christ’s Cross. Scripture warns: “When they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh” (1 Thess 5:3, KJV). The early Church faced such sirens—Nero’s decrees, syncretic councils—yet shone by proclaiming one Lord, Jesus Christ, whose Lordship reigns now and at His return, known only to the Father (Matt 24:36).Do not bend to these shadows.
Discern the times (Matt 24:6-7)! Sin clings, as Spurgeon reminds us, but Christ subdues it, making us new (Rom 6:14). Cry out His name—Jesus, Lord of All (Phil 2:11)—to the rioter, the mourner, the deceived. Stand firm, not in man’s plans, but in the gospel’s power (Rom 1:16). Share this truth: Only Jesus saves!#JesusIsLord #discernjesus #StandFirm
