A World in Crisis (Luke 1:26-45)
Today’s crises are multiple, in just about every field of human knowledge: in education, religion, politics, finance, marriage and family; in other words, it’s a quite generalized crisis and overwhelming! Supposedly “A.I.” is going to fix everything for us (already been made a religion, thanks to Anthony Levandowski, supposedly helping people gain a spiritual connection with A.I., even using typical religious jargon, so that it helps and guides them in a way that we would formerly refer to ‘God’). I.e., the human crisis deepens as humanity turns more and more to its own wisdom, and more openly turns against our Maker, the true Creator, King, and Redeemer. On the international scene, the crises abound in a lot of places besides the Ukraine and the Israeli-Gaza wars. Those are simply the places where the “human volcano” is presently erupting the most fiercely. But all over the world innocent lives are being jeopardized, damaged, and lost every day (how about Prague last Friday?!), and it’s all because of the continuing crisis of humanity’s selfish, warring nature, exacting a terrible toll, the fruit of our negative response to God’s loving authority over His universe … This is the underlying cause!
