In Earth's Final Days
As Time itself drew to a close in Earth's final days, the system of life seemed to have gone back several hundred years. Feuds, wars between kings and knights that fought on horseback...beheading as capital punishment had become ways of life once more.
One could almost believe that old TV shows and films, like Doctor Who, were a reality, for there were upon the Earth many strange beings, the like of which had never been seen from the dawn of Time until now.
There arose a great and powerful Dark Knight who rode through the land, calling all the people who dwelt there in apparently ordinary lives to arms.
For a millennium, the world had lain quietly under the guidance of one King who reigned supreme in Jerusalem, capital of the much torn land of Israel. Yes...the problems of the world had centred around this one small city in one tiny country, as the book of ancient prophesy had foretold it to be a stumbling block. And once more, a King reigned in Jerusalem as had not been his like since the time of David.
The people obeyed the call of the knight to a man. Many hated and were afraid of the Dark Knight, but they were bound to him through choice, and because even though they now knew who he was, they were bound through their own fears - not of even him, but of the King.
The King was good. And they were not. And they knew it. They felt in their hearts more akin to the Dark Knight and his ilk, than ever they did to the King. Though they hated the Knight, they loathed the King in his glory and purity still more because they hated feeling bad about themselves.
However, you'll be wondering how the Earth could turn and be on the side of evil. After all, everyone is 'good'.
Good must always overcome evil. That is part of man's inbuilt moral code. If it doesn't, this code recognises that something is wrong (most of the time) and rejects it.
Therefore, good must be twisted to look like evil, and evil good, for the evil to prevail and man to accept it.
As man is already infiltrated with the power of evil, from the time that evil made out absolute good to be less, or "evil", and man chose the real evil as a 'better' good, whenever absolute good is around, it is abhorrent to man's nature.
But man must have a form of goodness, and there evil triumphs, for all it has to do is make itself appear to be a better good than absolute good.
When we chose absolute good, it will hurt. Because absolute good cannot reside in a nature already tainted by evil masquerading as "a better good". But the cleansing is worth it. Because good will always prevail.
So what happens in the war between the Dark Knight and the Great King?
Humanity as a whole has always recognised some major points. Here are three:
1) That we had a beginning.
2) That we have an ending.
3) That there was born on earth a man called Jesus Christ Who claimed to be the Son of God.
Jesus said, "I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life."
"This is the judgement, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil. For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But he who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God."
"I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me."
I think you know who my story was about now. ;)
So I have only one question I want to leave you with this Christmas. The most important question of all.
It's found in Matthew 27:22. And it says:
"Then what shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?"
Your decision. But everything depends on it.
Happy CHRIST mas, everyone! God bless!
