Whats the difference?

Remember long ago they sinned
when God moved out 
And strangers moved in

Remember it was other gods
They claimed existed
And that made them odd

Remember when by prophets told
When they were wrong
By selling their soul

Some see the same thing today
The worship of gods 
Another way

Some that wonder why they kill
After much of their own blood
Was spilled

Some wonder why today
The world would hate them
The same old way

Why has it come to living this way
While the world see's
The End of days

Why has something became because
When it was clear 
These are the Laws

Why must men destroy the world
And the death of children
Go ignored

When will God take back His throne
From those men 
That wish they owned

When will men see the Wrath Of God
The destruction of the world
For it's evil plots 

When will this time be made for loss
and the words "Too late"
The bridge we cross

The end times seem very close. On the other hand , I see people calling it the age of enlightenment. Well, in any event, a lot of very weird stuff is about to take place

a thought provoking read. Your rhetorical questions are similar to the ones I ask myself.

So glad you penned a beautiful, reflective, food for thought poem rather than asking these rhetorical questions aloud and subjected yourself/possibly me to all the stupid human answers and human arguments that would ensue. I find this poem beautifully written and truly worthy of provoking INDIVIDUAL thought/growth. VERY MOST WONDERFULLY GOOD

John, I feel it won't be long before God calls the Christians home and then times like no one has ever seen before will happen then and I am so glad that God's grace was explained to me so I could accept His only Son as my Savior. Thank you for sharing this one with us. I appreciate you doing so. Sara K

These are deep questions. Without the spiritual, the physical has no boundaries. I like the sense of urgency and need for rationale thar your poem emphasizes.
