When democracy seems to be breaking out everywhere, on the street and in the home;
When Human Rights have become a common standard for all human interaction;
When religions begin to join together and put aside their differences;
When cultures merge and the distinctions become unimportant;
When the notion of a chosen race has finally been consigned to the rubbish bin of history;
When gender is no longer a basis for discrimination and women assume significant positions of power and authority;
When political parties find unity on sensitive moral issues;
When children are no longer smacked for correction but are given the same status as adults;
When marriage is no longer the exclusive preserve of a male/female pairing;
When the UN is at last given the power and means to fulfill its mandate;
When finally it seems that at last peace is coming to the middle-east;
When all these things happen, know this; ……… the prophesied end of the age is very near and the predicted terror is almost at the door.
“When they say “peace and security” then shall come sudden destruction…………… and they shall not escape”.
1 Thessalonians ch.5 v6
