The Way of The World

Posted by appolus on April 6, 2026

Knowing how the world ends fills the saint with deep, unshakable comfort. We are not utopian dreamers, endlessly disappointed by the condition of this fallen world. To live that way would reveal something far more serious, a practical atheism, as though we did not truly believe what the Word of God declares about the end of all things.

But we do believe.

And that belief produces something altogether different within us. Not dread. Not despair. But a profound and even holy fascination, as we watch the very Word of God unfold before our eyes. Every shaking, every upheaval, every turning of the age only confirms what He has already spoken.

And in it all, we know this, He is with us.

While the world is consumed with the temporary, the shifting, unstable state of things, we are captivated by something far greater. We are taken up with the eternal Kingdom of God, a Kingdom not merely coming, but already alive, already advancing, already unfolding within us.

And this causes us to walk in a peace that surpasses understanding, a peace that, when the world sees it, marvels at it. A witness of peace to a world in turmoil.

HI saints, I want to talk about the great battle we find ourselves in. You might ask ” what battle?” There is a battle going on for the hearts and souls of professing Christians around the world and believe me, it is fierce. Now, we can look at countries like China and North Korea and so on and know that our brothers and sisters in those countries are engaged in a great battle, an ancient battle, a very familiar battle that saints down through the ages have engaged in. The martyrs from all of the previous centuries would look at these countries and recognize what is going on there, it would be very familiar to them.  Yet the battle that I am talking about is the disarming of the saints in the west.  1 Peter 4:1-2 states……….

“Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin; That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.”

Now there is wide application in this verse and it certainly applies to each and every one of us wherever we live and whether we experience persecution or not. Yet, no matter where we live or under what conditions we live in, we are all called to ” arm,” ourselves with the fruits of suffering. Now this flies in the face of modern doctrines and teachings. Can you imagine prosperity preachers or word of faith preachers encouraging their followers to find spiritual strength through suffering? Yet this is exactly what the Scriptures teach. And so a vital part of readying ourselves for the coming of the Lord is to know how to react to suffering and persecution. This is why the modern doctrines I have already mentioned, and I will include here ” hyper grace,” are actually part of the great last time deception of the Church, designed not to arm but to dis-arm Gods servants. Now brothers and sisters, no one falls asleep in the midst of persecution, yet the church in the west has fallen into a great slumber, lulled to sleep by various doctrines that appeal to the very flesh we are here in the Scriptures called to deny, to resist.
