When Darkness Speaks: Understanding God’s Purpose Amid Evil
I asked my wife if she ever felt as though she was kind of hovering between earth and heaven; not fully here in this life, but not yet in heaven? The reason I asked was because that’s the way I’ve felt and I thought that was a bit strange. Her answer surprised me.

Everyone Doing What is Good in Their Own Eyes
It is going to get really difficult for Christians as things progress toward the end. It’s just the way it is as revealed in Scripture. Christians are going to once again be the scapegoat for everything the world doesn’t like and they will not hesitate to take it out on us. What’s our recourse? Get and stay close to God! Read His Word daily. Commune with Him often. Seek to live as He would like us to live.The road ahead looks very bleak, at least for a while, until the Lord Himself returns. I believe we can have peace in the midst of the trials headed our way, but that peace will not happen accidentally. It will happen as we do what we need to do to draw and remain close to God our Father.
Violence, More Violence, and Racism
Legislators will never see patterns or events as being perpetrated by evil. They will only see the manifestations of evil and believe that laws will correct the problem. Only spiritually-minded people in the form of authentic Christians will realize what the root of the problem is and the solution to those problems.
