Depravity of the Culture

Depravity of the Culture by Bill Keller

There have been many articles written lately in secular publications about the state of our culture. Even non-Christian, worldly publications have begun to observe and comment upon the depth of depravity of our culture.

One lamented that the state of so much of our population is “lonely,” “miserable,” and “depressed.” They noted possible reasons being the lack of family, faith, and patriotism.

Interesting!

Another spoke of the low percentage of people in a “traditional marriage,” meaning God's plan for marriage which is one man, one woman, for one lifetime. He pointed out the ever growing numbers of people who are divorced, many multiple times. They point out others who aren't divorced but are in relationships with different people than their spouses.

While not talking about same-sex marriages, they do point out that there are a large number of people involved in various relationships such as with multiple people of both sexes.

It is also noted that there is a growing percentage of adults who are still living with their parents.

A recent report detailed the fact we are currently in the worst drug and alcohol abuse crisis in our nation's history. As I have been warning people, God's plan for marriage and the family is the foundation of our culture. The breakdown of God's plan for marriage and the family has led to the cultural decimation we have witnessed over the past 40 years!

The abuse of drugs and alcohol, large percentages of people who are lonely, miserable, and depressed are all due to being hopeless! That hopelessness is a byproduct of the vast percentage of the last two generations having never been to church, of they're being without any faith.

Hopelessness fills the void that only God and faith in His Son Jesus can fill. The cultural woes even non-Christians are now writing about have as their root cause a population living void of Biblical Truth and a faith in God our Creator!!!
