TEOTWAWKI
On The Hal Lindsey Report (8-28-09) he offered a definition for the word TEOTWAWKI that I thought may be of some interest.
"The End Of The World As We Know It"
Needless to say, everyone is concerned, and rightfully so; about how our Nation and others presently function. This word doesn't just apply to the Christian arena. For example:
- The Theater (The Omen, Rosemary's Baby, Dr. Strangelove, The Seventh Sign, End of Days, Mad Max, Armageddon, Deep Impact, Independence Day, and Waterworld, to just mention as few)...TEOTWAWKI has been a consistent Box Office Winner. The one theme that comes out -- that this event is scheduled to complete within our generation.
- Israel feels that change coming; that they will soon welcoming the Messiah. The Jewish Sanhedrin, after 1,600 years, of being dormant, has now been re-established. Only the Sanhedrin can certify the Messiah; therefore, with the resurrection, Israel believes their time is short and the Messiah will soon return.
- Islam is promoting a return of their messiah figure (known as the Mahdi), thus forcing the end of the world as we know it. If you read any paper or listen to any news group, Islam (primarily Iran) has stated from the very beginning that they want the end to come and it will have to be at a governmental level to complete the task.
- Humanism/Secularism have developed an apocalyptic world view. As scientific knowledge increases at experiential levels; humanism looks to a apocalyptic atomic world war, thus with war between greed nations. With oil being the driving force, certainly this is highly possible. The concept of "one-world-government" is our only hope, according to them, with the United Nations the ruling party.
- Other Radical Nations are on the increase, outside of Islam's influence; not to mention world-wide-climate-change that seem to change daily depending who you talk to. In the case of climate change, many state they are man-made, yet others view this change as a narrowing point in time where our planet will not support life. Before you only question the growth of Radical Nations or these crazies owl-lovers, our banking indurstry has one agenda - that of bring about a one-world-economic-system by down-grading national security as a cause for all the problems seen.
- Our country, under our current President, continues to be part of this equation of change. Our nation, as we know it, is changing, and not for the better. Moral decline is increasing from the inside out. It is in every part of our society and is accepted as the norm.
All this to say...TEOTWAWKI is alive and well. We have ONE HOPE, and that is in Jesus Christ. You need to make certain that you are not Left-Behind. Christ is the answer to all these conditions. The only hope that TEOTWAWKI doesn't effect you is to accept His Grace, Mercy, and Love. Accept Christ Today and you will not have to worry about what tomorrow brings!
