"Pause To Pray"

 "But you, my dear friends, must remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ said. They told you that in the last times there would be scoffers whose purpose in life is to satisfy their ungodly desires. These people are the ones who are creating divisions among you. They follow their natural instincts because they do not have God's Spirit in them. But you, dear friends, must build each other up in your most holy faith, pray in the power of the Holy Spirit, and await the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, who will bring you eternal life. In this way, you will keep yourselves safe in God's love. And you must show mercy to those whose faith is wavering. Rescue others by snatching them from the flames of judgment. Show mercy to still others, but do so with great caution, hating the sins that contaminate their lives." (Jude 17-23 NLT)

 You may or may not believe these are the last days, but you must agree that these days are becoming more and more evil, with each passing day. As I said before, "Good is called evil, and evil is called good," just as the Bible has warned us of, these days are upon us! And with these days, there will be those who will be, "scoffers," as Jude puts it, which means the same as Mockers. Without getting too much involved in the spiritual applications, let's just say, "Playing like children," has some connection to this, as there is no respect to the rule of law...

"I will make boys their leaders, and toddlers their rulers. People will oppress each other - man against man, neighbor against neighbor. Young people will insult their elders, and vulgar people will sneer at the honorable." (Isaiah 3:4-5 NLT)
