[quote:It Makes Sense 1598294:MV8xNjQ2NTQ2XzI4MTE3NDc1Xzg4RTQxQ0NF] I have a simple answer. It doesn't require bible readings. It doesn't require repentance. Just an observant mind and moral fiber. It may seem unfair that God would place such a large burden on the back of one or two generations. When viewed from this perspective the world can become a bleak and unnerving place to live. However, there is a much a larger idea being instilled that will help the new generation overcome the adversity of today and flourish in the future. It is up to us to recognize the errors of our past so that we can restructure the future into a prosperous place, for everyone. The other day my friend asked me a question. If humanity was a game a chess and the world a chessboard, who would be the king? At first I suggested government, viewing it as nation against nation, but he disagreed. Then I ventured to guess ourselves, leaders of our own lives, but that was only partially correct. He told me the next generation will always be the kings. They will be the ones handling things when the previous generation has passed on. And if they're eliminated, it's the end of the game. He's right. When all the greedy and corrupt officials die, who will take their place? We will. One day there will be an event that will lead to a disintegration of society. It doesn't matter if it comes from economic doom, natural disaster doom, alien doom, meteor doom, whatever doom your heart desires. When that occurs who will be left to reconstruct society? The next generation. The driving hope is the intelligent, future-leaders will recognize the errors of their predecessors and understand exactly what will happen if they choose to indulge in selfish behaviours. Hopefully they will rally their generation to create a healthy and productive society that allows everyone to participate and contribute instead of choosing to deceive and manipulate for their personal benefit. That is why the burden is placed upon one generation. It's not only a burden, but also a gift and a responsibility. Things will change, eventually. I just hope I'm around to contribute. For all I know this could be my contribution. Thanks for reading. Not quite the religious rant you expected, eh? People have been perverting religion for a long time. Don't let that deter you from being morally righteous. They all try to instill the same ideas, despite the message being lost in translation. Thanks for reading and peace be with you. [/quote]
Original Message
Anyone who pays hommage to the Beast, accept its mark or denies Christ will be cast out in the fiery pit. Why is it that these warnings do not apply to the earlier generations ?
The Beast is supposed to appear in a specific time frame, so why just a specific generation has to endure the punishment ? Personnaly, I think that the Beast is growing alongside christianity and everybody has been confronted with it troughout history.
What do you think ?
