Yes, read your Bible and apply it to your life. The most amazing book ever written because it is the Word of God !
What does it take to prevent man from falling into corruption ?
Looking back at Noah, Job, Abraham, Joseph, Moses, Samuel and Daniel.
All men of great faith and belief that were not corrupt. All must have had highly respectful relationships with the Lord.
It is a shame that all of us were not likened to these men. Such a better life, such a better world.
God's plan is not entirely for us to understand. Many fail with this point.
But the majority of man falls into the corruption cycle over and over, dispensation after dispensation. Apparently man does not learn from the past. Odd how history is being avoided in this present age of deep corruption as if to not face the past. Perhaps man avoided looking back at history in past dispensations to free his mind from the concerns of punishment or failure.
History and the Bible warns man of past failures due to corruption.
The Bible provides guidance to avoid corruption, defines failures and gives warnings of failures, and finally warns/exacts punishment.
If man blocks history, the Bible and God out of his mind corruption and sin comes easy. God issues them a reprobate mind and their sin party begins !
God tried various forms of punishment. Man as a majority does not take heed to God's punishments. The Bible is clear on that point.
God loves us very much so this time he sent his only Son to die on the cross as a path for Salvation. Even the gift of Jesus was met with minimal acceptance.
It sure looks like God is allowing a slow process of punishment in this end times age perhaps to 'wake' us up. Ever increasing violence, increasing natural disasters, increasing wars and rumors of wars, increasing financial distress, etc. to assist in our awakening by arousing our fears and/or concerns. All these events are increasing the faith of the Believer - Praise the Lord ! Hopefully many will find Salvation.
So here we are living at the end of another cycle of corruption. A cycle of corruption like no other. God have mercy upon us. Pray for those that don't see nor hear. Thankfully God is still in control and left us with the Son, the Bible and the Holy Spirit.
Utterly amazing, from creation to this day. Thank you God for this awakening.
