I’ve always wondered when reading passages in the book of Revelation, how it could be that man doesn’t repent after each horrific event that will come upon the world. When in my early twenties I first read that book in the Bible, I couldn’t begin to fathom how that was possible. As I turned the pages, reading chapter after chapter, I was stunned. But living in this present day and seeing the mindset of man, I now know why. We are experiencing a world where it is, as C.S. Lewis wrote “…always winter and never Christmas…”*
In centuries past, when there was any kind of calamity, man would seek God. In the middle of all that is swirling around us today, there are whispers of repentance, but that is not the majority of what I hear.
