There are often encouraging signs here and there. But there are also plenty of growing signs for concern too.
Human trafficing and slavery are rampant. [b]National Geographic magazine had an article recently on the rise of international slave trade.
Some would not consider divorce as violent. But the Bible sa ...[text shortened]... and he who does it behaves in violence, says Jehovah of hosts ..." (Malachi 2:16) [/b][/b]
Yes divorce is now common place and it seems many get married expecting that to happen, thus the prenuptials are getting more and more common. People are more concerned about their money then the marriage arrangment by God.
The sanctaty of marrage and what it is in God's eyes are getting farther and father from our knowledge of God.
And the sad thing is the children that may be involved and they also see the examples that their parents and probably their grandparents have set.
Then you just have a growing majority that just don't get married and are thus living in sin and their kids see that.
So the moral compass that should have instilled in children by our parents thru teaching and examples are losing ground every minute.
I just heard that over 200 young black men in Chicago or Detroit I think, have died this year by murder.
Where are their parents? Did they stay together in marriage and teach these young men morals and to respect life and do this by example? NO.......
But perhaps as one poster here mentioned, just buy locks and that will help. Right!!!!
