The Cheap, Plastic Love of the End Times

And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.”
–Matthew 24:`12

Here’s what that greatly-ignored book, the Bible, has to say about charity (love).

“Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never faileth…And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.”
–1CORINTHIANS 13:4-8,13

How does the reader believe the above description of love compares to the endless number of songs, movies and TV shows about “love“?

How does the reader believe the above description of love compares to the popular notion that LOVE can be boiled down to little more than physical attraction, breathless, chemical lust, manipulation of one partner over another and hot, sweaty couplings?

How does the reader believe the above description of love compares to the modern idea of the prenuptial agreement, a business contract which many deem necessary before one can say “I do“?

So many moderns KNOW that the “relationship” they have with the “person of their dreams” is not right. But a great many moderns keep going, hoping that “things will work out” and that the obvious problems can be “fixed.”

A great many imposters go by the name of “love” in the times in which we live.

Perhaps that is why so many say they search and search and yet never find true love?
—Modern Love’s Many Imposters

What moderns have is not love.

What moderns have is an imitation love.

What moderns have is a cheap, plastic imitation of love.

But most of all, what moderns have is a bag of emotions which they cannot distinguish from real, true love.

Real love is virtually extinct: crowded out by the cheap, tawdry plastic love promoted by the rich and celebrated, the culture and the Corporate Media; and, practiced by the last several generations who cannot figure out why this imitation love never quite works for them as promised.

Meanwhile in the end times: iniquity abounds, very few opt for the truth over fiction, the youth turn to the advice of demonic music over the Word of God, the world becomes harder and colder AND no one seems to find that thing which mankind found for centuries: true, long-lasting love.

Meanwhile, the youth and the ever-hopeful among end times men turn to TV personalities and “self-help” books for the answers of why they cannot find the love they believe is their due.

A few find that, if they make a LOT of money, they might RENT the affections of a mate for awhile. That this is the reality of many marriages is borne out by the number of divorces which occur when the money train stops (for whatever reason).

There are MANY who talk a great deal about love.

There are FEW who demonstrate they know what love is.

So, in a land which insists it values love, the people are largely unloved and miserable.

It is little wonder that “…the love of many shall wax cold.”

DOES the reader ever find himself wondering “Is this all there is?”

It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
