Living in the End Times: The New Retail

retail

Though the end times most often prove to be a time of unsettling changes and disruption, the end times may also prove to be a time of OPPORTUNITY.

Such are the times in which we now live, which are providing the opportunity for man to observe the dawning of a NEW RETAIL system.

Retail has pretty much been the same since man began to desire goods and services other than those which he might provide himself: one visits a place of business which sells what one desires.  When a product (or service) is located which the customer desires, the good is then exchanged for some sort of money OR another good which the seller himself desires and which the customer can provide (barter).

In short

  1. Man wants something.
  2. Man finds that something.
  3. Man exchanges his money (or another good acceptable of value) for that something.
  4. Man moves on to something else.

One of the key components of traditional RETAIL SALES has always been the retail sales ESTABLISHMENT: the shop or store. In traditional RETAIL SALES, a man enters a shop–where goods have been accumulated which are popular with customers–and picks up an item to buy.  He brings the item to the cashier, who takes the man’s money and gives him a receipt of the transaction.

However, in the times in which we live, the reader has been an observer as a NEW RETAIL SALES system has been steadily put into place.

This NEW RETAIL SALES system involves the customer locating something he desires (usually online using the Internet), ORDERING that something (usually online using the Internet), the seller verifying the customer’s identification and ability to pay, and then, after the seller receives his money, the seller ships the customer whatever it was the customer ordered.

The NEW RETAIL SALES system is different from the traditional version in that the NEW RETAIL SALES system 1- eliminates the need for a human cashier (which also frequently operated as a contact point for the customer for information, complaints and returns.); 2- Adds a layer of verification the buyer must meet before being sold his goods.  Since all sales over the Internet involve electronic forms of money, the buyer’s identification as a legal user of his electronic money is required; 3- eliminates the chance for the buyer to physically inspect and approve of that which he is buying; and, 4- There is a time period between when the buyer is charged for his purchase and when his purchase actually is in the buyer’s possession.

To facilitate the acceptance of this NEW RETAIL SALES apparatus, sellers will often 1-offer goods for a discount over what the OLD RETAIL SALES system offers; 2- absorb the shipping charges associated with delivering their product (this will end once the old retail system is no longer operable); 3- make the return process as buyer-friendly as possible.  The seller will usually accept ANY and ALL returns for ANY and ALL reasons and then credit the customer’s account; and, 4- make the entire remote retail experience so buyer-friendly that there are few legitimate complaints.  This will be the case until the OLD RETAIL SALES system is no longer functional.

In the OLD RETAIL SALES system, when a shop found something which meant increased business, the shop kept this feature in place.  In the NEW RETAIL SALES system, when an online retailer finds something which customers like, the online retailer will keep this feature in place UNTIL the old system is no longer a competitor.  THEN, the feature is discarded–particularly if the feature costs the retailer any money to maintain.

There are several steps to doing away with the old system and installing the new system.

1 – Build a LARGE seller of goods which utilizes the NEW RETAIL system.

2- Dismantle the old system.  This usually is performed in several stages.  First, the stores offer less selection.  Then, the stores offer their own NEW RETAIL SALES experience. Finally, the stores close.

3- Offer the NEW RETAIL SALES experience EVEN WHEN THERE IS NO DEMAND FOR THE NEW SYSTEM. Provide information that NEW RETAIL SALES are vital and growing.

4- Finally, the stores (which represent OLD RETAIL SALES) all close and online sales (which represent NEW RETAIL SALES) is all which remains.  This FORCES customers to utilize the NEW RETAIL SALES system.

By now, the curious reader is wondering why this transparent change from a system which has worked well since man was created to a completely new system for the end times?

The short answer is: it facilitates an overall system which more rigidly controls who it is who buys and sells.

It more completely monitors all who wish to buy–and sell.

“And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.”
–Revelation 13:16-18

Has the reader had the opportunity to observe any of the above?

One more question: Will the new retail system be the final version OR will another new system  replace it which will more completely meet the needs of the man of sin?

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.

Modern Life: Alone in a Crowd

alone in a crowd

Living in the tumultuous hurly-burly that is our modern world, it is easy to go DAYS without crossing paths with one’s own thoughts.

Modern man confidently believes that living in this arena of non-stop activity is a big advantage over his ancestors.

But it is NOT.

Modern man will point to the many technological “advances” which he believes puts him above his less technologically-gifted forefathers. HOWEVER, these “advances” have generally contributed mightily to the confused ruckus we call modern life.

Yes, modern man generally does not have to physically toil to earn his daily bread.

“In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.”
–Genesis 3:19

(Probably just a coincidence, huh?)

Yes, modern man has improved upon the ways to more effectively kill large groups of his fellow man.

(Probably just another coincidence, huh?)

Yes, modern man (at this present point in the end times) can move from Point A to Point B in a speedier fashion than did those who came before him.

BUT, modern man also has increasingly urbanized his surroundings. Most would maintain that this leads to more opportunities, availability of better-paying jobs and the saving of commuting time each day between work and home.

However, this packing of more and more people into less and less space has led to several disadvantages for modern man–including one in particular.

In the push-and-shove of today’s world, modern man has been provided with a multitude of various games, gadgets and gizmos to keep himself endlessly amused. This system has been designed to provide more amusements, more distractions and more ways to separate a man from being with his thoughts by leaving him with NO time for that activity.

Why ponder the “deeper things” of life?

There’s Fortnite to play!

Why concern yourself with the state of the world and the direction it is headed?

There’s cable network news, which will tell us about all of that.  One channel will tell us how good things are IF there is a Democratic president and another to tell us how great life is IF a Republican is in the White House!

Why wonder about right and wrong and what the Bible says?

There’s a whole slew of experts, scientists and well-liked celebrities who keep their finger on the pulse of today’s life–and most of them don’t have anything good to say about that old book!  Nobody pays any attention to that old-fashioned blah-blah-blah anyway!

In short, regardless of how many others squeeze up against us every day, modern man feels increasingly alone in this crowd. There are several reasons for this.  A few quick questions for the reader.

Has the reader noticed this growing mistrust; this increasing alienation from others?

Can the reader guess why this might be?

Does the reader believe this separation from the fellowship of man is getting worse–or does the reader believe this estranged relationship with others is just part of normal life?

Has the reader thought about ANY of this?

OR has the reader been “too busy” to think about much of anything?

Spending some time with this odd modern situation prompted a few observations.

  1. In bygone days, when one wished to amuse oneself, one either read or passed the time doing something constructive.  IF one wished to play a game, at least one other person had to be available.  With video games, the Internet, computers and game consoles, another person is not only NOT necessary: another person might not even be desired.
  2. With the decrease in contemplation (thinking time), thoughts, opinions and other information that is already prepackaged has increased the amount of INSTANT THOUGHT!  (No thinking is now needed.)
  3. This modern alienation has prompted a caution when dealing with others.  Why does the reader suppose this has come about? How many neighbors or people one sees on one’s way to work does the reader actually KNOW?
  4. The isolation is designed to nudge moderns into finding ways (such as games and other time-wasters) to combat this mental version of solitary confinement.
  5. This circumstance will not get any better.  It only gets worse.

Is the reader surrounded by people?

How many of these people does the reader know?

How many of these people does the reader call “friend“?

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.

Dog-Eat-Dog

dog eat dog

dog-eat-dog

marked by ruthless self-interest

Does the reader believe the world is becoming more of a “nice” place OR is the reader convinced the world is increasingly evil?

Is “dog-eat-dog” an accurate description of modern man?

What does God’s Word have to say?

“This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.”
–2TIMOTHY 3:1-5

“For the son dishonoureth the father, the daughter riseth up against her mother, the daughter in law against her mother in law; a man’s enemies are the men of his own house.”
–Micah 7:6

“And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death.”
–Matthew 10:21

The disinterested observer might label the above descriptions as “ruthless self-interest.”

If the reader cannot see that society and the culture have increasingly become interlocking components of a dog-eat-dog world, then do not fret.

It gets worse.

A LOT worse.

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.

Endless Discussions About Minutiae

discussion

minutiae

a minute or minor detail usually used in plural

There are a great many arguments/discussions raised among the church folk over MINUTIAE.

Minutiae over what?

It does not matter, so long as the discussions focus on the minutiae, occupying time and effort while redirecting any attention which might be employed more usefully.

Such as preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ to a world which is dying.

This tactic was demonstrated 300-400 years ago when one of the most famous of such discussions involved trying to resolve the question “How many angels can dance on the head of a pin?

The debate featured many of the attributes associated with classic time-wasters.

  1. Even IF the question could ever be answered, no good would come of the information gained;
  2. The discussion featured a point which could be linked ever so tangentially to God’s Word;
  3. The argument distracted those who took part in it from obeying God’s important commands, such as preaching the gospel.
  4. These discussions revolved around the doctrines, information and teachings formulated by MEN.  Therefore for the most part, “right” and “wrong” answers depended on what MAN has decided or decreed–not what is found in God’s Word. (Which is the primary reason such discussions have proved to be so popular among the tares.)

In the times in which we live, a great many of these minutiae-mongers congregate on social media, where they have constructed forums, chat rooms and various discussion groups dedicated to those who desire to ceaselessly contend over the minutiae of man.

Those who are ensnared and entangled by such ruses become, many times, VERY adamant about the finer points of such minutiae.  This vehemence is often offered as “proof” that these discussions are a vital part of “God’s work.” Otherwise, would such “godly people” become so passionately embroiled in these “godly topics“?

A great many of these discussions are taking place as this is written.

What are the topics of such discussions, where opinions, confusions and other minutiae is endlessly batted back and forth?

The timing and nature of the gathering together (which is CLEARLY stated in God’s Word); various arguments supposedly concerned with salvation; assorted other wresting of the scriptures; various topics which arise from the science-fiction aspects of the church folks’ concerns: fallen angels, nephelim, ETs; and/or, minutiae over “discipleship,” including why the gospel of Jesus Christ is not sufficient in itself but must be propped up with the various scribblings of man.

Try as one might, NO groups which were currently focused on how many angels could dance on the head of a pin were located on the Internet.

Which gives hope to all those who follow the Word of God that in 300-400 years, similar (though more current) minutiae-mongers might become exhausted as well.

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.

When the Wicked Acknowledge God

bow, acknowledge

Regardless of what evil men, the wicked, the rebellious, the ministers of Satan and other workers of iniquity now believe: every knee shall bow in acknowledgement of the supreme Lordship of God the Father and God the Son (Jesus Christ).

“Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.”
–Isaiah 45:22-23

“For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.”
–Romans 14:11

Not only will EVERY knee bow, but EVERY tongue will confess to God the Father and His Son, Jesus Christ.

“That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”
–Philippians 2:10-11

“And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.”
–Revelation 5:13

Despite however vehemently the worker of iniquity might protest, this will all take place at the climax of human history (the return of Jesus Christ).

Despite however much mockery and scoffing there might be by the children of disobedience, this will take place upon the return of Jesus Christ.

“Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.”
–Ephesians 5:6

“But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.”
–Jude 1:17-18

“That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour: Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”
–2PETER 3:2-4

HOWEVER, a great many of the wicked will acknowledge God’s power BEFORE that day comes when their knees shall bow.

This acknowledgement of God’s power and wrath occurs BEFORE the return of Jesus Christ.

Specifically, it occurs when Jesus Christ is still in heaven: when Jesus opens the sixth seal

“And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?”
–Revelation 6:12-17

In fact, the wicked will be so fearful of God’s great power (which will be on display for all to see), that they throw away their idols–which is, in itself, an acknowledgement of God’s great power.

“And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be made low: and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day. And the idols he shall utterly abolish. And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth. In that day a man shall cast his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made each one for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats; To go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the tops of the ragged rocks, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth.”
–Isaiah 2:17-21

SO, Regardless of what may be believed now;

Regardless of how strongly one may believe;

Regardless of the timing of each individual acknowledgement–whether it is when Jesus returns or when the sixth seal is opened:

Every knee WILL bow and every tongue WILL confess to God the Father and to His Son, Jesus Christ.

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.

Witching Hour: What is it with witches and black cats?

Black cats are often seen as the stereotypical witch familiar; that is, an animal housing a spiritual entity that helps the witch with her spellwork. The term “familiar” is not suggestive of malevolence in itself, but certainly during the 14th and 15th century witch trials a familiar was synonymous with demons or the Devil himself, or else a spy for dark forces.

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 the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”
-—1 Corinthians 1:18-19
