1 John 5:19 NLT, the Apostle John writing: “We know that we are children of God and that the world around us is under the control of the evil one.”
Well, that explains everything! Believers, followers of Jesus, are blessed to live in fellowship with other believers, who do their best to follow Jesus’ commands to love God and love their neighbor. Life is relatively good!
But the rest of the world is a big mess! For a time, Satan is allowed to do business in our world. This forces mankind to choose. We’re required to make a conscious decision to follow the Lord, and there is no middle ground. Those who are not ‘with’ the Lord are ‘against’ him.
This explains wars, prejudice, riots and killings, none of which are good and all of which are fueled by the evil one. It also explains disaster relief, food shelves and homeless shelters. Christians are always the first to step up when there’s a problem. Choose today whom you will serve. Choose wisely!
Blessings and safety to all,
