How hard it is for the church to sound this warning, to be thought a fool. The end is always near. A man in my city killed himself by strangulation trying to increase his pleasure in sex with oxygen deprivation. Meanwhile the church accommodates itself to a society bent on its own pleasure. The user-friendly church affirms the culture around it and promises that things can go even better with Jesus.
Sin goes unchallenged, and the end draws near, the inevitable end of sin, death.
The end is near. I ve never seen that sign, but it is just as good a paraphrase of the word of God. All the world can see is continued degradation, but the church sees the end.
