Why the World is in Moral Decline?

Mankind has forgotten the truth, and this is why most of the world is declining morally. The Holy Spirit lives on this planet, but the Bible teaches that mankind has an eternal choice to accept or reject the truth! People have become selfish and have placed greed and money above right living, and the search for God. When people forget God, and suppress His existence, humankind enters an existential crisis and looses it’s identity. Moral decline happened in the times of Noah, and God sent a worldwide flood to destroy mankind. Apart from God, human beings have no real goodness or righteousness in themselves.

When people try to be good apart from belief in God, the source of all goodness they are relying on their own fallen human natures to be in right standing in God’s sight. Apart from the sacrifice of Jesus, mankind has no forgiveness. When religion is suppressed mankind becomes their own god, and becomes an idolatrous people. Idolatry is not just worshiping idols, but it is choosing to worship yourself as God.

This is the sin of pride that Lucifer committed before he became the devil. Human beings are not God, but they are acting like they are gods, which has brought the wrath of the real God to this world, like never before. To be saved from the wrath of God, you must be humble and merciful and believe in the truth, but when you become greedy and selfish, you perpetuate the judgment the world is experiencing right now for turning from God and rejecting the truth.

Pontius Pilate wanted to know if Jesus Christ was telling him the truth, and said to Jesus, (John 18:38) 38 “What is truth?” retorted Pilate. With this he went out again to the Jews gathered there and said, “I find no basis for a charge against him. 39 But it is your custom for me to release to you one prisoner at the time of the Passover. Do you want me to release ‘the king of the Jews’?”

In the bible Jesus says He is the truth, (John 14:6). When the world rejects the claims of Jesus Christ they are left alone, given over to their sins, which is God’s judgment or wrath upon them. This is Mike.

Some Bible Verses on Money.

Bible verses about money. I bet you didn’t think the bible said that? Proverbs 23:5 When you glance at wealth, it disappears, for it makes wings for itself and flies like an eagle to the sky. 1 Timothy 6:10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. Proverbs 13:11 Wealth quickly gained is quickly wasted — easy come, easy go! But if you gradually gain wealth, you will watch it grow. Psalm 62:10 Don’t make your living by extortion or put your hope in stealing. And if your wealth increases, don’t make it the centre of your life. Luke 6:38 “Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” Ecclesiastes 11:1 Cast your bread upon the waters, for after many days you will find it again. Malachi 3:10 Bring the whole tithe into the storeho...

My Story.

In 1999 I suffered a mental health crisis and admitted myself into the hospital where I live, in which I was given a mental health diagnosis. I didn’t want to receive medication at the time, but unwillingly accepted it. I was in the hospital for about two months, when I asked my doctor if I could go home, and he said yes, even though he thought it would have been better if I stayed longer. I was glad to be home though, but at 25, it took some adjusting to feel truly at home. One of the problems I was having at home was it was hard for me to eat the food in the house. I was having a psychosis where I felt the food wasn’t mine, and I literally had to go out to eat, or buy bread from the supermarket and take it home to eat it. Eventually this wore off, but I don’t remember how long. I was now on ODSP and had a check come to me every month in order to have financial support. I would occasionally have a crisis, and ask my mom to drive me to the hospital, but eventually th...

Why has the church lost its capacity and power?

The church has modernized itself and in the process has lost something very valuable. It has lost its capacity to be personable. The way we reach lost souls is by seeing them, by getting to know them, and by recognizing them, but people are getting lost in the church. The church has become a busy place and is also becoming a less holy place. To make disciples we have to get to know people, and technology in the church is depersonalizing souls, and depersonalizing God for them. Faith becomes a marketable commodity, whereas in the past, churches and their leaders nourished and valued personal faith. While faith is still valued, it’s becoming something that is marketable, which reminds me of the story of Jesus in the temple turning over tables (Matthew 21:12-17). The problem isn’t that the church doesn’t work or doesn’t want to share the gospel, it could be how we are doing it. The church is currently being run like a business, and each Christian metaphorically speaking has a profit...
