DARK AGE AHEAD: LEGALIZED PAEDOPHILIA & BESTIALITY?

How far can a nation turn away from the light that it has known is well illustrated by this recent news item from Reuters about the attempt to form a party in Holland that advocates a “cut in the legal age for sexual relations to 12 from 16 and the legalization of child pornography and sex with animals” (“Pedophiles to launch political party”). This is horrific and it has understandably caused outrage in Holland. But unless there is a transcendent ethic that enables one to critique such perverse thinking, it will eventually carry the day.

And though many in our culture would be equally outraged, this may well be the future for our nation as well, unless God intervenes in revival. I am deeply saddened by this news item, since I have so many dear Dutch brethren in Christ. But the bell of death is tolling not simply for Holland, but also for Canada.

Dr Haykin,

Sadly, I'm beginning to see why you had been hesitant from the beginning to allow comments at all...

Thank-you for your thoughts Michael. I have been considering this since I heard of it, and even though people like Simon above, think that this would never happen in Canada, if one goes back not even 20 years ago, no one would have considered that same gender "marriage" would be allowed by the government of Canada or that polygamy would be on its way to being if not accepted also legalized.

Simon, you seem offended by this, yet you seem to have no respect for those whose blog you are commenting on. In fact your very comment proves the truth that God needs to send revival. I would hope that you read more of Michael's blog rather than simply doing a hit and run comment.
