Has evil become a regular part of society?


On any day, reports of evil have become a regular part of society.  I believe the tipping point for all of this was the pandemic. The isolation of people, the churches that closed, and the rioting in cities and, this is just a few to mention. These events caused an effect that spread worldwide. 

25 years ago, the times seemed steady, nothing major besides the norm stuff of everyday life. And a few years later, the 9/11 attacks created a sense of unity of good vs. evil and lasted a few years until the next transition, the global war on terrorism. As anyone can see, the chain of evil events afterward increased more intensity. 

World history will consistently demonstrate events of good vs. evil. But what makes this time so different is the acceptance of evil. In the past, good has always been the dominating force in fighting the bad. But now, evil has become the dominating force against good. 

A simple way to observe this is to take in all the news for just a few days and think about how it would have been perceived 25 years ago. Here are a few examples, drag queens at Storytime in local libraries, parents letting their children decide if they want to be a boy or a girl, men competing in women's sporting events, and mass shootings. Society twenty-five years ago would have deemed this outrageous and unacceptable. 

The unacceptable is still unacceptable! The one thing that has changed is evil has become the dominating influence and has convinced those who once knew the difference between good and evil now believe in just the opposite. 

We must return to the true good, the Truth in God. For thousands of years, the principle set forth from the moment God gave us the Ten Commandments, we are obligated to follow the rules set for us by our Creator. God set these Commandments for a good reason, they are timeless, and along the teaching of Jesus Christ, we have all that we need to fight against the evil in the world.
