Grace unto you, and peace,
from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
I watch all world (global) news, including independents and environmental stuff; Especially watch for global stats and any good news thereof.
For in Mk 13:37 JC said God said: "what I say unto you, I say unto all: Watch". Yet such is also allegoric for "you all" begins with "you", and whatever applies to "you" applies to "all" the KofG JC located within "you", especially if "there is no respect of persons with God", nor with Son of God.
Evidently, and based on global 'evidence', "peace is breaking out all around the world", with both the number of conflicts and number of casualties being on the decline, as reported and clarified by CBC News: http://www.cbc.ca/story/canada/national/2004/08/29/peace040829.html
And doing my own global observations, via global graphs and the global internet, I find a correlation between peace breaking out ww, and people ww getting the legalistic beam out of their own eye first: to see better how to get help from the throne of grace in time, and help others recover from opposing them-selves as oxy-morons, as children of Hatfields vs McCoys; Help brighten up their gloomy doomy vision (not add more gloom and doom to such).
Christendom is indeed in a state of spiritual adolescence, with fundamentalist christians, legalistic jews, and fanatical muslims running to and fro the earth with their adolescent law law. Will we survive it? Yes! Will we make it to Spiritual Adulthood? Yes! Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free is not optional, nor iffy.
There is hopeful evidence that more than a few, especially the ever growing number of Out of Church Christians, are now making their way to spiritual adulthood, by coming out from among them, and putting away childish things: laws; the hypocrisy, partiality, the oxymoronic lies thereof such broad and narrow ways of chilish-adults unaware there is a more excellent way to go on to: the new and living way which never fails, the greatest of three things.
If you're still wondering, perhaps you're giving place to "another wonder" (such as a seven headead dragon) appearing in heaven, and "another law" thereof; which only produces all manner of evil concupicence and makes adults, even priests, do wretched things. This too shall pass.
The "grace" of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.
