Naturalism's inevitable decline

11/5/2013

It is no surprise to find that apostles Paul & John agree with each other, but this particular subject I find quite interesting. In 1 Tim 4:1 and Rev 9:20 they both concur on the increased level of demonic spirituality surfacing at the end of the age. To some of us this may sound unlikely, since in our society it seems like the atheist and skeptic are getting the upper hand. And yet, in the grand scheme of things, the vast majority of humanity refuses to accept such illogic and still believes in a divine being, or beings, of once kind or another. No matter how loudly the philosophers broadcast that randomness and blind, mechanical processes are behind reality, the human mind cannot ultimately digest this naturalistic worldview. Each new generation will need fresh brainwashing in order to believe it. It should not surprises us then, that the Bible reveals a broad interest in the occult as we move towards the Day of Christ. Sadly, though mankind overwhelmingly accepts the fact that there is a spiritual world, the law of sin naturally bends us towards the evil side of the war.

We must make the most of preaching in this wonderful age of Grace, when the Spirit of God is still busy changing men's hearts and shining in them the light of the Gospel!

Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, givingheed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; . . . and the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: (1 Tim 4:1 and Rev 9:20)
