SUDDENLY

   For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.  (I Thessalonians 5: 3)

   You have nothing to be overly concerned about today, right?
   You need a job or you would like to have a better job, and you know that either will happen in the course of time.  Just keep filling out job applications, keep waiting, keep living on unemployment benefits, and things will get better.  Right?
   Unemployment is high in the United States as well as in other nations, but you believe the people in the United States government, in Federal Reserve, in the European Union, etc., will fix everything.
   Companies in the United States are going out of business, but you believe the people in government will fix everything, that companies will re-open their doors, and that jobs will be restored.  Right?
   The earth is presently going through a few spasms with destructive storms, hurricanes, tornadoes, drought, earthquakes, but the earth does this periodically as a way of cleansing itself, and therefore you have nothing to be concerned about.
   You totally trust all of the people you see on television, the people of politics, religion, and entertainment, and all of them are really nice people, aren't they? 
   Then there is that strange crowd of religious nuts and Jesus freaks, talking about all that doomsday stuff, about something as silly as a global government and a world dictator.  That just can't happen, can it? 
   For example, the people of Germany had nothing to fear about a little man by the name of Adolph Hitler, did they?  After all, he had virtually no education, no career path in his mind, and he was nothing more than a street punk, going from place to place to find a group where he could get in and fit in.  He should have gone to Hollywood, being that he was a natural actor; for he was able to use his personality and convince a nation to take up the sword and kill undesirable people and even to declare war against the mighty United States of America!  Even the Pope (what was his name?) and Prescott Bush liked Hitler and the Nazi Party.  Imagine that!
   Have you ever noticed how certain people, at certain times, can come from out of nowhere---with little education, little training, with no career paths in their minds---and suddenly and unexpectedly explode upon the stage of the world and become international stars and celebrities?  And masses of people believe in them as if they are gods?  And how people actually weep in their presence? 
   On a silent night in Bethlehem 2000 years ago, the Son of God came into this world and the world was sleeping.  And they cruicified Jesus for telling the truth. 
   Today, prepare your mind for something that will suddenly happen in the future. But don't worry:  be happy.  Government and religion are going to fix everything, right?  So go back to watching television, read another book to your children and grandchildren, and tell them not to believe in a few of those born again Christians and Bible thumpers. 
   Government and religion are going to raise up a man greater than Adolph Hitler, that's all.
