Can we control the future?

Well, if the way we’re handling the present is any indication… No.

Whether it was China’s blow-up-in-your-face “one child only” policy, or the diseased sociology of the West, all over the world, recessions are looming. The old “boom & bust” cycles aren’t work anymore. Populations are aging, shrinking… and “Workers are getting hard to find.”

Mark Rushdoony’s essay can be easily summed up:

Trust not in the statists who have made this mess! They did it and we’re paying for it.

Only God can fix this. Why not put our trust  in Him?

  1. Those who live by faith in Christ and His Word can have peace in the midst of dark times. I think of Correy ten Boon. Joy comes in the morning. Circumstances may make us unhappy, but the joy of the Lord makes us strong. A breakout of revivals, reformations, and great awakenings are what will fulfill mankind’s greatest need, redemption.
