As each day passes, I see the promise made by Christ being fulfilled

As each day passes, I see the promise made by Christ being fulfilled,
in a world where the tumultuous days of the end of history seem to be shortened
for the sake of the chosen, for if He did not intervene, no one would remain
unharmed by the decay of the empire of darkness spreading everywhere.
Madness sets in, engulfing humanity in every domain,
in character, in mind, in life, a severe degradation of human conscience,
the atrocities and slaughter of innocents, children and Gaza are clear signs
that the promise from Thessalonians is being fulfilled, for as
the Spirit of the Lord withdraws from the world, only empty shells called humans remain,
the void left by the Spirit being immediately filled by the demonic spirit that destroys everything in its path.
It only needs that which restrains it now to be taken out of its way.
We know what follows, for as the withdrawal of the Holy Spirit from the world
approaches its end, the Antichrist will rise, whom only the blind do not see,
just as God said it would be: and then the lawless one will be revealed.
People, taken over by this demonic spirit,
in their madness place their hope in all sorts of political and religious leaders,
in technology, in artificial intelligence, in anything other than
the only way to salvation, Christ, like a flame in a moonless night,
His light remains steadfast, even as the shadows stretch further,
for in darkness, only a spark
can ignite hope, and that spark is Him, the Savior.
Thus, in the silence that envelops the world, an echo is heard,
calling us to look beyond the apparent vanity,
to turn towards the light that does not fade, to cling
to the promise of eternal life, for in Christ remains
our true salvation, even when all seems lost.
