Do you know what time it is?

You hear it everyday - you hear it in most any place you find a person.  "What time is it?" 
For most of us it's simply a way of getting our bearings as to how much longer we are at work, or how long till the game, or how long till the snow arrives, or how long till our kids come home from school.
As I look around the country and the world around me, 'What time is it?' becomes a very powerful thought. In the times that we live in, most people say that they are glad that they don't have to raise kids
 in todays' society....and most of them really mean it!  Why? Because they know what time it is...it is a time of wickedness and they recognized this.  One man said to me that "today sin and evil is so easy to catch up with you".  He explained that back in his day you had to kinda go out of the way a little to get into big trouble but today it is right there in your living room. I think he meant his computer, smart phone and television, right at our fingertips. 
I do believe that evil or trouble is very accessible in the lives of most people today - more than ever.  Why?  Because of 'What time it is".   We can see our society breaking apart....it is evidenced by the breakdown in the family, social collapse, open lewdness, bold and brazen sins, the lack of shame, and nore and more crime. It is all because of 'What time it is.' Sin is easy because easy sin catches more people...I believe sin is more accessible because more accessible sin catches easy prey...I believe sex, sexual sins, lusts and sensual pleasures are easy today because they strike at man's nature and they are easy bait for a wise predator we call the devil.  Why is this stuff so easy.....it is because of 'What time it is.' 
Well then 'What time is it?'....It is not time for the bread to be done, it is not time for the game to come on or the snow to arrive...it is also not time to fall into these sins because IT IS - time for Jesus to come back. The signs are becoming more and more apparent.
Now is the time to dump the stuff and hook on with the Word of God, find an anointed pastor, a holy congregation, and men and women of God that can tell you what time it really is.....
