I
don't know if it still exists, but there used to be an organization,
in Nevada, I think it was, made up of prostitutes and those who use
and abuse them called C.O.Y.O.T.E.
It's
an acronym that stands for, “Call Off Your Old Tired Ethics.”
Yep,
that's what we need. Those who sell their bodies for cash and drugs defining the moral parameters of society.
It's
nothing new of course. In the book of Psalms we read:
“Why
do the nations conspire and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of
the earth rise up and the rulers band together against the Lord and
against his anointed, saying, "Let us break their chains and throw
off their shackles.”
Psalms
2:1-3
Every
soul who has rejected God's Truth feels imprisoned, constrained, tied
down by the prison they have constructed for themselves.
They are
slaves of satan in every sense of the word.
In bondage to sin.
Incapable of freeing themselves.
Because these people are so dull of
mind and slow of thought (sin makes us stupid), they actually believe
that true freedom is to be found in a total rejection of their
Creator.
That's
why there is such a rage mounting against Christians and the teachings
of Jesus around the world. It hasn't reached a critical mass of
opposition – yet – but it's coming.
The
stakes are enormous. There is only one force standing between what
human nature wants and what it feels it's forced to accept. And that
force is Jesus and those who follow His teaching.
Only
Jesus keeps the powerful from completely obliterating the weak.
Only
Jesus keeps the law from descending into anarchy.
Only
Jesus stands in opposition to those who long for an atheistic world
power.
As
history winds down and as Jesus slowly but surely withdraws His hand
of protection, those who oppose God and everything to do with God are
going to get exactly what they want – an eternity without any influence of God.
