Warnings.

Proverbs 5,6 & 7 are full of warnings. Warnings against disaster, folly, adultery, laziness are all so applicable to our day. I think back to history in Europe, and see the conditions in which people lived, and always, it seems, there were those who worked to rise above. Inventions abound to make life easier, but now, with all our labour saving gadgets we have embarked on a period when crime, violence, fraud, and any dishonest way to survive is becoming the order of the day,

Matthew 24:12-13 tells us, Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved.

As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of (Jesus) the Son of Man. For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. (Matthew 24:37 - 39 Words of Jesus Christ to His disciples.)

I want to be found ready when He comes. Those who think His words are fantasy would do well to examine more of the prophecies of the Bible.
Most have been fulfilled!
What next?
