I found out the fact that when we go to His Generation, we jump with joy, we laugh loudly. And there's so much happiness I can't even describe but being a Christian is not just sunshine, strawberries and rainbows. Yes there is so much joy in Christianity but there is also much pain.
Look at the world around us. Metallica, Avenged Sevenfold and Megadeth are attracting more fans than Missionaries bring people to Jesus. I'm struggling with Metal addiction, I've regretted that introduced one of my friends to Metallica instead of salvation. So if he's in eternal damnation, it's my fault. So if you have yet to listen to metal, don't try it. I've went down a little bit but I'm currently listening to Guns N Roses. Well not heavy metal but it's still dirty music
No one is arresting Metallica or Avenged Sevenfold for evil songs but Missionaries are being imprisoned and killed for spreading good news. In Orissa in India, churches and people are burned to the ground. You might not know this but an Australian missionary was killed along with his sons.
So if you ask me, the morality of the world today is no different than the time of Noah because...
- People hate Christians. In Hillsong videos in YouTube, many people spit on Jesus' face with profanity. I recently found this comment "Jesus preys on the weak" in one of the Hillsong videos. So to them, Jesus is an equavelant of Satan. All around the world, Christians are rejected from society. All the same way how people insult and laugh at Noah.
- People are making Gods out of anything. Yeah, I've seen people calling rockers Slash or Ozzy Osbourne a God. Well Slash can play guitar better than Hillsong I admit but he's a drug addict, alcoholic and a foul mouthed man. How can he be God. In that case, everyone is God.
- The world is poisoniong the children. Those days, kids watch Tom and Jerry, Mickey and Goofy and Looney Tunes. Today kids are watching South Park, Retarded Animal Babies, Robot Chicken and Happy Tree Friends. I've admit, I once loved to watch South Park and Happy Tree Friends. A thing called "pornography" arose during the mid 19th century and with the cyber technologies today is expanding at a monstrous rate and getting both the young and old addicted to it. Even children re smuggled into this buisness. Partially because of porn, Rape and rape murder is a top crime nowadays.
So it's no surprise that Jesus will destroy earth the same way he destroyed it during the time of Noah. Last time, it was by water but this time the world will be destroyed with flames as nations bomb each other.
The Lord knows the world is dying. Pollution is everywhere. Murder, corruption and sin is everywhere. The number of students in America who want to do another Coloumbine or Virginia Tech is growing. The Emo and Gothic culture is expanding. More nations are turning to Nuclear as an energy source.
But let us look what humans have done to our beautiful planet earth. The dinosaurs have never caused any form of pollution during their 135 million year stay on earth. Sharks have never dumped any trash into the oceans for 450 million years. But only after 2 million years since homo sapiens existed, earth is choking to death. How?
- Shark Fin buisness is rivalling drug and weapons trade in the black market. An estimated 150 million sharks are killed for their fins every year. So take my advice, don't eat shark fin soup. I'm sure Jesus would agree. And only 5 people die of shark attacks a year. I don't know why we wanna save the pandas, seals, dolphins, tigers and elephants but only I support shark conservation. And the tiger and leopard skin, turtle shell, Japanese whale meat and other wildlife poaching buisness is expanding day by day.
- Every few seconds, forests the size of soccer fields are demolished for space and paper. To counter this, recycle your newpaper and don't sit for exams because it wastes paper. Imagine how many millions have to get at least 100 sheets paper for exams and the trees that are cut down. Nah you must recycle but do sit for exams.
- The Pacific and Atlantic ocean is a new global dustbin. Garbage scows are dumping rubbish into deep oceans. It won't be long before the Marianas trench gets towered by rubbish. Remember, the ending of Transformers where a dead Megatron is dumped into Laurentian Abyss, that's the same thing they're doing now. Oh yes they dump robots. My cousin living in New York says you won't find fish in their longkang like in Malaysia where you can make a living casting nets in a sewer. He said you'll find rubbish of all sorts. Be careful Jeffery, don't jump ina New York sewer if you see a Gibson Les Paul inside one.
I know Jesus pressures us on missionary work but I'm sure he wants a few to save the environment. Why not we donate a few ringgit to Sea Shepard or WWF. Also boycott shark fin soup. Well, Jesus loves the animals too. If he didn't he wouldn't have created animals in the first place. It's just we are created in his image. Like they make Spider-Man and Darth Vader toys more expensive but animal toys cheap except for like Jurassic Park collector's item.
So be mindful. Yes the bible tells us there is joy in Christ but there is much pain in the world we live in.
Many thanks....

Hi Wei Lim,
Thanks for the wonderful blog posting.
The world has definitely changed so much, and there are so much more changes that we will see as our Lord Jesus Christ is coming.
We know that Satan is out there to destroy us. It may be a slow process, so we have to be careful.
Just like the song "Slow Fade" by Casting Crowns, "People never crumble in a day, it's a slow fade, it's a slow fade"...
