The Pains Of Childbirth

Romans 8: 15, 22-23

... You have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out,"Abba," Father! 
For we know that the whole Creation groans and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now. 
And not only this, but we ourselves, having the first-fruits of the Spirit, even we groan within ourselves, waiting eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our body. 

The whole Earth is groaning and writhing as in childbirth, under the curse put upon it by Adam's sin, until Jesus' return to make it "new." 

When Adam sinned, the Earth and its environment, the Universe, was cursed with death. Science calls this the Second Law of Thermodynamics, or Entropy; things tend to wind down and wear out, going from order into chaos.

I've been hearing lately, these past few years, and more and more as time goes by, of all the geological upheavals with volcanoes and tectonic plates shifting, causing weird weather and stuff. And with the Watchmen's Earth and Space Connection reporting all these accelerated global anomalys, and looking at what the weather is doing around me, I can't help but believe that the Earth's birth pangs are reaching their zenith. 

The final, global, world-wide earthquake that will flatten the mountains, overflow the islands and split apart the Continents will greet our Lord's Glorious Appearing; as soon as every person living will have heard the Gospel with enough understanding to accept or reject God's ways. 

It could be any day now!

O my Father, thank You for telling us in Your written Word what to expect, so we can be prepared for what is coming. Help us, Father, to do the things You would have us do, go where You want us to be, and talk with the people who need to hear what we have to say. 

Send workers into Your fields white to harvest; to find Your lost sheep; to build and promote and finance Your Kingdom on this Earth; and draw to Yourself every one of Your children, leaving no one with any excuse. 

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
