It is still going on. ( Matthew 24 v 4 - 13 )

                      As one reads or hears  the news ,in the 21st century
                      why do we still have, wars and rumours of wars?. At
                      this time we have North Korea is developing weapons
                      of mass destruction. Now of course the leader of that
                      country is an educated man, he has travelled abroad,
                      and yet he has carried on where is wicked father left
                      off. I highlight him, but he is one of many ,Hitler,
                      Stalin, they where educated people, Stalin consumed
                      books, in many ways  he was a very intelligent person.
                      Look at the world of religion , the awful crimes that
                      have been and are being committed. The history of 
                      Christianity shows how wicked even professing Christians
                      can act. And so it goes on ,people seem determined
                      to destroy and hurt their fellow man. Why ?,because
                      we live in a sinful world. The cross on which Jesus died
                      tells us just how wicked we as humans can act, but it
                     but it has a greater message, that of  forgiveness,
                     and love. We all have choice, we can stay in a kingdom
                     of darkness , or we can trust Jesus and enter the kingdom  
                     God ,which is one of hope and light.
                                         Jesus said, follow Me.
