In light of the mass killings in California, we have more and more thoughts swirling around!

The headlines in one newspaper said, "God can't fix this!"  The paper mocked people who stated verbally or through media to PRAY.

Something is definitely wrong......

In some places and ways, that statement might be true. God has been 'uninvited' into our government entities and agencies; schools; and into some of our laws. And God obliges and doesn't go where He isn't wanted.

But hang on:  "God CAN fix this!"  In fact, some of this has been predicted hundred and several thousand years ago. The last book of the Bible, Revelation, and the last chapter has lots to say about what is coming. John wrote:

"The time of fulfillment is near. And when that time comes, all doing wrong will do it more and more; the vile will become more vile; good men will be better; those who are holy will continue on in greater holiness."
~ Revelation 22:10 - 11

Then comes one of the final sentences in the Bible:

"Yes, I am coming soon! Amen! Come, Lord Jesus!"
~ Revelation 22:20

And the Bible commentary "We don't know the day or the hour, but Jesus is coming soon and at a time when no one will expect Him. This is good news to those who trust Him, but a terrible message for those who have rejected Him and stand under judgment. Soon means at any moment, and we must be ready. In a world of problems, persecution, evil, and immorality, Christ calls us to endure in our faith. Our efforts to better our world are important, but their results cannot compare with the transformation Jesus will bring about when He returns. He alone controls human history, forgives us, and will re-create the earth and bring lasting peace....."

Hang on, the best is yet to come!!
