They would also say that the Sermon on the Mount and the Lord's Prayer have no reference to the church. Such people should pray and seek the Lord, that they may see the wondrous things that are revealed in the Holy Scriptures for our consolation, encouragement and great comfort. The gospel must be proclaimed, and you and I have that responsibility. Christ cannot come until the gospel is proclaimed in all the world. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.
Man attempts to have security in many ways.
No doubt you have heard of the League of Nations, the United Nations, and the Security Council of the United Nations. I am sure you have heard of Social Security. During every election cycle politicians promise that they can deliver economic and political security. All of these things are designed to give us a sense of utopia, peace, and safety. Destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.
