How can you not love Fall?
A commonly held Christian view is that the world will culminate in some catastrophic events. These will be precluded by some events that will occur that are prophesied in the Bible, such a one world government, a world leader, one currency ("the mark of the beast") and a unified religion.
Never in my lifetime have I seen the time so ripe for these events. We now have a world wide problem that is gaining momentum and an awareness coupled with anxiety that is unprecedented via social media. (Occupy Wall Street comes to mind) There seems to be no solution, and indeed, the solutions that are being brought forward are just exacerbating the problem. There is underlying fear as the ordinary person is losing wealth, jobs, savings, and confidence in the future. I could quote figures from the Wall Street Journal only this week but I digress. The great leader, Obama, who was to bring about change and hope, has done the opposite.
Who do we turn to? Someone will come along with a solution, a great idea. Part of his solution will be a world wide economic community with a common currency and an agreed upon set of regulations that will prevent the economic 'bubbles' that are so troublesome. Nations will no longer vie for trade positions, but there will be fairness and equity all around. This man (or woman) will have a charisma that will make us all place our trust in the new one world government and a single currency. Peace and prosperity will be the fulfilled dream, just like in John Lennon's song "Imagine". Nation's debts will be forgiven and we will all get a fresh start. And then it starts getting tricky. Go read your Bible and see if you can figure out the rest for yourself. I only know that I will be OK.
