I have been awol for a while but after reading Michael Medved's blog today I could not stay away any longer. Michael's column titled Gloom-and- Doomers Wrong on US "Moral Collapse" is the longest, most verbose bit of dribble I have ever read in my life. I am no fan of Pat Buchanan but John Mac Arthur is my Pastor and a very brilliant Theologian, and when he speaks I tend to listen. He is not a man who seeks public acceptance, nor is he interested in being politically correct, he knows the Scripture and has a tendency to tell it like it is regardless of who likes or dislikes it, he is a straight shooter. Scripture says of men like Michael, "A natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually appraised" 1 Corinthians 2:14. Michael's article proves the Scripture written by the Apostle Peter to be accurate, who wrote "Know this first of all, that in the last days mockers will come with their mocking, following after their own lust, and saying "where is the promise of His coming? for ever since the fathers fell asleep, all continues just as it was from the beginning of creation". For when they maintain this, it escapes their notice that by the word of God the heavens and earth was formed out of water and by water, through which the world at that time was destroyed, being flooded with water". 2nd Peter 3:3. Poor Michael will he still be spouting dribble when the day of the Lord comes because he has set himself up above the wisdom of God and is a mocker just as it is written of him? Make no mistake about it, "The day of the Lord will come like a thief in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat and the earth and it's works will be burned up."2nd Peter 3:10, For the unbelievers like Michael Medved and any in that category, just because you don't believe in a thing does not change the fact of it's existence. Your unbelief will not exempt you from God's wrath that will be visited on the ungodly of this world.
