It has been well said that the people of this world are controlled by two things: their lusts and public opinion. When the light of Christianity and the grace of God works in a country, the result has been the uplifting and upholding of standards of moral behavior according to God’s Word. But as the light is rejected, moral corruption comes in until man begins to act like a “beast.” At the end of the day of grace, the two great leaders of the world, one religious and one political, are referred to as “beasts.” God’s earthly people, Israel, were physically set apart by God from the nations around them, who were full of darkness and evil. In today’s world, the believer is to be morally separate, while physically living in the midst of evil. As the days grow darker and public standards plunge into the abyss of evil, living as “children of light” becomes ever more challenging. This issue identifies some of the moral issues that we face today and God’s provisions to deliver us from the evil. Let us always remember that our Lord Jesus Christ “gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father” (Gal. 1:44Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: (Galatians 1:4)).
