Good morning! We often hear the saying, "Isn't technology wonderful." The answer, of course, is a definite yes. Computers, the Internet, cell phones, space travel, modern medical technologies such as diagnostics, even robotic surgery, etc. are wonderful inventions, all of which make our lives better, but there is a downside. Biblical prophecies predict things which will happen in the future such as the Antichrist's ability to control commerce and monitor human behavior; these will be made easy by technological advances. In fact, we now have the technology in place which can permit much of what the Bible predicts will happen and newer, faster, better, more advanced technologies are being introduced every day. As more and more of our lives are being influenced, even being governed by these technologies, the coming new world order is gradually taking shape. Our lives are becoming less private all of the time with computerized information being compromised and falling into the wrong hands; hackers are gaining access to both private and personal records as well as corporate, and governmental confidential files. Where is it all going to end? The Bible tells us. We will write in next week's blog about recently reported compromises in a host of important areas which involve our security and safety. You'll want to be sure to read next week's posting, I guarantee it will make you sit up and take notice.
Tomorrow's sermon is How To Make Wise Decisions - Part 2. I hope you'll make a wise decision and not miss it.
