Did You Know?

I was made aware of this video short by one of our church members recently. The components struck me as "wow factors" and of course I immediately think of how these things are impacting the shape of Christianity, our missions endeavors, the way we approach the world as a whole and even the smaller cluster of that population within our local regions.

I also thought about how this is shaping end times and bringing about more possibilities than we could have even imagined 10 years ago. Check out the video and see it through a Biblical Worldview.

An Interjection for the Global Trends Report

I wanted to inject this as I came across this today. Apparently the NIC has put out an intelligence report and they just finished their predictions for our status as America in the international community through to the year 2025. You really need to read some of the bullet points, especially pages iv,92, and 105. I tell you, we are getting closer to the Lord's return by the minute! Keep looking up, Amen!

See it through the eyes of one who knows that Christ is returning and that the book of revelation reveals a weakening of countries and a unifying of nations. Notice how Russia and China are gaining power and that the US is weakening in the realm of international dominance. So much is happening and the time is drawing near. I just wonder if we as Christians will be ready and willing to count the cost as our "intolerant" approach to international policies will be questioned and brought to bear in political, judicial, and civil settings? We are truly seeing the Global Trends fulfill a God given revelation.
