How is the Christian to navigate in today’s Twilight Zone culture.

 






Most of us older folk remember the 1959 TV series the Twilight Zone crated by Rod Serling. The episodes are in various genres, including fantasyscience fictionabsurdismdystopian fictionsuspensehorrorsupernatural dramablack comedy, and psychological thriller, often concluding with a macabre or unexpected twist. Sounds very familiar to where we are now as a culture. We have fantasy: Men can become women and women can become men. Absurdism: We have over a virus shut down our economy…We have American wearing masks and we have a new vaccine that is being forced on the American people.  Horror: We had last summer our cities burning, cops assaulted and stores pillaged and with all that we had many in our government and all of MSM completely ignoring the chaos while calling it the summer of love. 


There will be no unexpected twist to the Christian. God has revealed Himself to His people through the Holy Scriptures. We find that God’s patience will one day run out on this wicked, dark world and His wrath will be poured out like nothing this world has ever known, see Romans 1:18: For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven upon all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, suppressing the truth by unrighteousness”

For God’s people the Lord is a strong tower and we run into it and are safe, see Proverbs 18:10. God is our refuge and the follower of Jesus seeks his safety there, see Psalm 461-2a “God is our refuge and strength, a helper who is always found in times of trouble. Therefore we will not be afraid, …”

So in the middle of all this absolute craziness let us take hope and courage in our Refuge and our strong tower. March on Christian soldiers and keep your armor on and keep look up ^.
