ON
BORROWED TIME!
Introduction
This is not the time and
moment to sit in front of our television sets and hope that
all works out well and perhaps we will become better by
controversy and war in the Middle East OR IN ANOTHER PART OF
THE WORLD. In a time of such great crisis in the East, is not
the sign of prophecy very real and taking place before our
very eyes. We must recognize that a new day has dawn toward
the climax of history as we have known it. ARE WE TRULY LIVING
UPON BORROWED TIME?
We have discerned that
events of men are beyond our abilities to control, manage and
overcome. As great nations of our earth struggle with one
crisis after another, isn't there something beyond what we see
in the news, experience in our daily walk as humans upon this
planet? In other words, are there issues beyond this world,
much more than what our minds can perceive? Isn't there a
message beyond the outer experiences we are experiencing? In
this book, we will focus a great deal on the contrast or
difference between the inner and the outer in our daily living
and going beyond just the symptoms we see daily. There is
unquestionable something taking place beyond the existence of
what we are physically seeing. THERE IS A CAUSE. THE EFFECTS
ARE EVIDENT! What are causes and what will be the outcome if
trends are not reversed? Is it too late? Have we gone beyond a
point of no return? Can we appeal to a source that can bring
us through these times or provide a resolution for success in
crises as they occur at every level of our present society
today?
"ON BORROWED
TIME" takes a serious view at our times and the fleeing
time left for our survival as a people on this planet.
Jeremiah the prophet was given a preview of our awful
day when he cried, "I am pained at my heart, my heart
maketh a noise in me, and I cannot hold my peace, because thou
hast heard, O my soul, the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of
the war. Destruction upon destruction is cried, for the whole
land is spoiled. I beheld and lo, the fruitful place was a
wilderness and all the cities thereof were broken down at the
presence of the Lord, and by His fierce anger" (Jeremiah
4:19, 20, 26). Was the prophet referring to a bankrupted time
account on the part of people who time had run out with the
Almighty? "We are in a world sick with doubt and sorry.
There are repeated disappointments on the national and
international scenes. In every country, we have a widespread
of distress and perplexity. What does all this mean? The
ruthlessness, terror, and lawlessness of our world point to
nothing but anguish and misery ahead! It seems to be headed to
one thing. It really means time has run out. There has to be
an end of things as we presently know them. Again, has out
time run out? Are we on borrowed time? "On Borrowed
Time" answers these serous questions and more. This book
is destined to impact your thinking about time and eternity.
It is to promote and provoke urgency in our times to save us
as a people. What
about an infinite future for mankind upon the planet earth? We
shall consider this and even more. I don't think you will be
disappointed in reading this text and passing it on to a
friend.
Lastly, let's consider
the limit sense of time as relative to our present life and
that of others around us. Are there unborn generations for us
to consider and for whom we are to be liable for? Are we our
'brothers and sisters' keeper when we look at time in its
relationship to others about us? Once time flees that has been
our allotment; can we be given a new assigned time limit to
complete things left undone? This and more awaits us in this
reading. It is a text of much research and effort. Can it be
realized we are in a dangerous and most serious time of
humanity existence upon the earth? May this text impact our
directions and guide our future!
The Bibles speak of the sins of the fathers being visited upon the children. THERE IS A
PROPHETIC time-table unfolding in our times. These are very
disturbing words, nonetheless they are words of great truth!
Can we now be experiencing the truth of these words? Is there
more to be understood to help guide us to greater truth and
understanding of our times? What about other signs and
occurrence that have appeared in the 21st century
as indication for our time limits? In this text, we shall
proceed to answer this and other questions that places a
definite limit on our time upon this planet and warn us if
there is extra time, it can only be borrowed time.
