Editor's Notes
- PEACE IN THE MIDST OF CRISIS
- 3. There is no happier place in heaven than the place where the peace of true love prevails.
- 4. There is no place more precious in the world than a happy home.
- 5. The destiny of every nation will depend on how well they have taken care of their foundation, which is the home. For that reason, it can be said that a country’s condition will reveal the philosophy they follow and the moral condition their families have.
- 6. In his work, A Study of History, the great Arnold Toynbee analyzed what caused the collapse of 19 important civilizations and he came to the surprising conclusion that…
- 7. … in 16 of the cases, these were corroded from within and that the family social institution was the first to collapse.
- 8. So, how is this my fault?
- 9. Today many nations are in crisis, including superpowers and those in the process of development.
- 10. Those who hold atheism and those who claim to profess Christianity are prey to a moral, political and economic decline that concerns us all.
- 11. According to statistics published on the stability of marriages, the highest divorce rates in the world correspond to the most industrialized atheist countries.
- 12. It is striking that the stability of households and morality in developed countries, which claim to follow the teachings of Christianity, present a picture of decadence similar to the one we have just described.
- 13. The gap that separates the rich from the poor and the rulers from the governed widens. Subversive groups of left and right proliferate, some of which pretend to be Christians.
- 14. Wars among allies, corruption at all levels,…
- 15. …large-scale theft and fraud,
- 16. …suicides,…
- 17. …destroyed homes and abandoned children.
- 18. Surely, all this is cause for embarrassment and perhaps even anguish for you and your loved ones.
- 19. But I wish to tell you that there is an answer, Jesus Christ. He is the only cure for the evils we face today.
- 20. VERSE: “I am the bread of life” – saith the Lord – when He walked on this earth. -John 6:35
- 21. He was not referring to the material bread we eat, but the spiritual bread that brings peace and harmony to men of good will. The kind of bread that all nations need, that gives wisdom and brings happiness to our homes.
- 22. Many families have lost faith and have abandoned themselves to existential and materialistic philosophy.
- 23. Scientific and technological advances have increased the well-being of households, but the high values of the spirit are suffering an unfortunate setback.
- 24. “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. - .” Matthew 6:33
- 25. Today many are more concerned about accumulating wealth but show little interest in spiritual values. Many Christian countries and homes are in crisis. Why does all this happen? Jesus said to those around him,…
- 26. “But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do the things which I say? Whoever comes to Me, and hears My sayings…“ -Luke 6:46,47
- 27. “…and does them, I will show you whom he is like: He is like a man building a house,who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock.” Luke 6:47,48
- 27. “…And when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house,…” Luke 6:47,48
- 28. “… and could not shake it, for it was founded on the rock.” Luke 6:48
- 29. “But he who heard and did nothing is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation,…” Luke 6:48
- 30. …against which the stream beat vehemently; and immediately it fell. And the ruin of that house was great.” Luke 6:49
- 32 Can we expect peace and progress in Christian countries and homes that do not follow the counsels of Christ? Let's not be surprised then when ruin comes. Before an audience of 28,000 people, a famous speaker stressed that in his country, one in three marriages ends in divorce. But only one in 500 marriages who pray and study the Holy Scriptures regularly come to the same consequences. Therefore, the Lord Jesus Christ recommended…,
