Those who are truly saved, need to understand that the only hope for us is to carefully and humbly submit to God’s will and Word and not allow the world to influence us with its ungodly philosophies. This will require a true humility that allows the heart of the individual to submit to God’s righteous standard. Israel was promised great blessings if they would know and follow the true God. They have experienced some of those blessings at times in their history. For the most part they have missed out.
Gentiles can also be assured that God has great blessings in store for those who will humbly submit to His will for them. We are not promised a land. I do not see a bright future for Canada. I see a continual corruption of the people and a collapse of the entire nation. The hope that I have is in Christ. My prayer is that I can help others to see the value of turning to the true God and knowing His peace and blessing in their lives. I need to be in His Word daily and humbly submissive to His will in order to be able to show others that I actually believe what I claim to believe. As we look at our verses, we understand that we are not commanded to put any lost person to death for defying God. We are not the nation of Israel. However, we can learn that we cannot have a friendship with the ungodly world system that permeates our land. Those who are saved need to live separated lives in this wicked world, so that God’s light can shine through us to a wicked and dying world. This is a challenge that is worth striving for. The process of seeing Godly change take place is often slow. It often involves small steps. We as people are often very reluctant to simply submit to God’s leadership and trust Him explicitly. We can be thankful that God is longsuffering and is still working with us to help us to see the blessing of serving Him faithfully. Soon the trumpet will sound and this life will be over. The world will face a drastic change as it has never seen before. COP15 or any other conference will not be the catalyst for that change. God will make the change by removing all true believers out of this world and allowing the antichrist to run his wicked experiment for seven years. A few will be saved during that time. It will be an extremely difficult time for anyone who is saved then. It will also be a very difficult time for the ungodly. However, they will be able to reap some of what they have dreamed up at meetings like COP15. I am glad I will not be here for that time. I hope and pray that many others will also turn to the true God in these days of grace to know His peace and blessing.
