God Help Us. We’re Dead.

A civilization can survive almost anything, as long as its foundation remains unshaken. Take away its fundamental raison d’etre (reason for being), and it will die. Dissolve the glue that holds us together, and society falls apart.

That foundation, that reason for being, that glue… that made Western Civilization so successful …is gone. And, the final blow apparently came during the pandemic hysteria of the past three years.

Our Biblical world view has collapsed, and this means that our current civilization has finally died.

This might sound strange to some of you, so let me explain.

God Help Us. We’re Dead.

Civilization is fragile. It falls apart quickly if there isn’t something holding it together, and that ‘something’ must instill in each person a strong belief in civic virtues – honesty, integrity, respect, honor, industriousness, peacefulness, neighborliness, civility, kindness, generosity, justice, mercy, etc.

Without these ‘civic virtues’, society must be ruled by fear.

Notice what happened when communism invaded Asia and Eastern Europe. They made belief in a higher power illegal, replacing faith with fear. And, it didn’t work. It was awful.

Even here in Taiwan, this tiny island nation is becoming unglued as belief in a higher power fades. Even though their gods are demonic, belief in them put a limit on corruption. But, compared to China, Taiwan is still paradise. But, I’m getting off track.

What were those ‘civic virtues’ again?

Oh right, these:

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

 – Galatians 5:22-23 (KJV)

And, when Jesus said that we were the ‘salt of the earth‘, He was telling us that we were the preservation of society. He was also telling us that our behavior would be appealing. People around us would see something valuable and want what we have – or at least think of it as a good idea.

Followers of Christ are the shock absorbers for society. We put out the fires of vengeance and retribution with the spirit of love, joy, peace and forgiveness. If there are enough Christians in a society, a nation can survive anything.

But, if Christianity disappears, civilization dies.

Many like to talk about how China has such a rich history and vibrant culture. I’m afraid that I know far more about Chinese history that I would like. It’s a blood-drenched tale of violence, massacre and genocide. Over thousands of years, China rarely ever knew anything like peace.

Unfortunately, America has chosen the same path:

Barna: Only 4% of Americans now hold biblical worldview
https://notthebee.com/article/barna-study-shows-that-fewer-americans-hold-a-biblical-worldview-post-covid-with-only-4-meeting-their-criteria

That’s a fall of 33% from the last time Barna did that survey in 2020. And, 6% is a terrifying number all by itself. The fact that it is now 4%, means that we’ve gone from fear to horrifying certainty.

I’m sorry, but there’s no way that four percent is enough to keep America together, especially when part of that figure probably includes heresies like Mormonism, Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Westboro Baptist Church.

The problem begins and ends with the corruption that has eaten away at our churches for more than a century. It started out slowly, barely noticeable as it began. But, now that we are so near the end, it’s coming at us in a rush.

We did this. We are responsible. We let this happen. And, because that is so…

Judgment is coming for the House of God.

 

I truly hope that you’ll be ready for this

A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.Proverbs 22:3
