How Did We Get This Far

It is a shame really.

I ask myself sometimes,

'How in the world did we get this far'.

Somewhere along the way,

we made a wrong turn.

We were warned and warned,

but eventually,

God gave us up to a reprobate mind.

He let us make our own beds,

as he turned his own head in shame.

How did we get this far?

It is not that we do not recognize our sins,

but that we do not recognize God.

people say it is their right,

but that we Christians are wrong for putting God first.

Children are killing children.

Men and women are lying with the same sex.

We are in a cold war,

to see who can who can kill the most people.

People are hating the law,

and yet they call them when they need something.

How did we get this far?

Nobody wants to take responsibility for their own actions.

I lament.

Men are having sex with different women every week.

Corruption dwells within the law,

like a splinter embedded in a person's flesh.

Pastors are afraid to preach the word in church.

They are afraid of being criticized.

Statistics say that Christianity,

makes up most of the world's population.

As I read the stats,

I tell myself,

'there is no way that this many people will be in Heaven'.

How did we get this far?

I do not intend to be self-righteous.

I am far from perfect.

Still, I love the love the Lord,

with All my heart,

and will always continue to do so.
