Time B.C and Time A.D.

[david rodriguez]

Would it have been easier to live under God's Providence before Christ or after Christ? In the times of the Patriarchs and Prophets, was it easier to accept God in everyday living more so or less so than it is as easy to accept God in everyday living today? Did living under God's Providence become harder or easier as time went on? What IS the progression supposed to be? God is the same yesterday, today and forever so why would the challenges of serving God change from one generation to the other?

Because people do change.

Well, advances in technology have certainly made life more comfortable and our life expectancy has more than doubled, and with the development of modern laws and secular morality, we've never been as safe as we are now, so I'd say a bit easier to live now, than even two hundred years ago.

Your question changes constantly. Thanks for illustrating.

" the challenges of serving God change from one generation to the other?"
YES. Values, people, groups, support, media, populations, cultures....
all change, as do the challenges.
