Last Days

 

Around all the world, people live difficult moments. For example, in the U.S.  

there  are hurricanes which devastate several cities affecting, in others there are earthquakes, the economy and health of people there. Everywhere people are vulnerable to suffer any disease. Talking about moral decadence, it leaves too much room for discussion. In conclusion, there is no doubt that we live on the last days which are predicted in the Bible and I will explain why I think that.

Natural Disasters. According to the facts there is an average of 88 

earthquakes a day around the world. Just the last month in Mexico City  a strong earthquake of 8 grades on the Ritcher Scale made the city suffer severe damage and many human losses. On the other hand, every year typhoons of devastating intensity often pass through the Caribbean and North America destroying everithing in its path. Despite of anti seismic technological advances, there is no a complete solution for disasters. Therefore, I think in the future disasters will be too tragic. 

Pest and Diseases. Nowadays, millions of people are suffereing from

 diseases and infections such as VIH, cancer, hepatitis, tuberculosis, etc. In reality, scientists have found the vaccines to treat the diseases and help people to get better. However, medicine is not available for everyone, instead of helping people to get better their health, physicians tend to sell the medicine at exorbitant prices. This action is selfish and harmful because many people run out of money. Sadly, new diseases are appearing in these days and the medicine to treat them are very difficult to prepare.

Moral Decadence. 50 years ago in 1970, people used to be cultured and 

respectful. Today, due to globalization many people, specially young people are more rude, maybe because their parents do not control their children in several aspects like for example: the type of videogame they play, what interests their children have, with whom they join, etc. Today's pastimes are not very educational as we know, mainly a soup opera, an action film doesn't teach nothing good, it just teaches children to be rude, liars, unresponsibles and finally the result of this is that children start to have bad habits like smoking, to get drunk, etc.

In conclusion, there could be great technological advances in several fields,

however, while not only in the science we must trust but we must start to make big changes from today regarding to our personality and habits and it's pretty important to mold our personality on what the Bible teaches.
