Dr. Couch, I know you have written about this before but where do you
think we are today-that is, what is happening in the world?
While I am not a date-setter I believe we are closer to the Middle East
falling apart than we can imagine! One of our generals in Iraq recently
said if we just pull out of that country, Iran has said it will move in
to fill the vacuum. He predicted our gasoline would go up to $9 a
gallon! Saudi Arabia would not stand for such an Iranian invasion and
would suddenly move against that country. Full scale war would break
out, and of course, one of the targets in the conflict would be Israel.
Meanwhile, most of the American people, specifically the younger
people, and the populations of Europe, are enjoying themselves to the
fullest. Drugs, entertainment, promiscuity, homosexuality, etc. are
running rampant. Half of our young people have some form of sexual
disease. There is no stopping AIDS. The use of drugs is not slowing
down! We are deep into moral decay but few people believe it.
Watch how psychology and fear rule in the reporting media. "Are you
SAFE?" is the standard question on news reporting. We do not take
personal responsibility. The government must make us SAFE. Common sense
is out the window! When something tragic happens someone has to be
blamed. I saw a piece yesterday where little kids on the playground were
"stressed" out when they played touch tag. "Someone is running after
me," they whined. So touch tag was removed from the playground! Stupid
madness!
We are a sick, sick society, and few understand this or see it.
In my opinion, apart from a super miracle, there is no turning back!
The Bible is so repudiated in the cultural arena that its influence will
never return. I am sure some reading this will disagree. So only time
will tell whether I am right or not.
We have moved to the days of Isaiah and Jeremiah.
Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil;Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness;Who substitute bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!Who to those who are wise in their own eyes,And clever in their own sight. (Isa. 5:20)
Were they ashamed because of the abomination they have done?They were not even ashamed at all;They did not even know how to blush.Therefore they shall fall among those who fall;At that time that I punish them, they shall be cast down. (Jer. 6:15)
The Bible tells us an apostasy is certain in the last days. I believe we are there!
Thanks for asking.
Dr. Mal Couch
