Population
In the news in Russia, the problem of a fall in population and lack of children came up again. Fortunately, the state is doing much to help reverse the trend; however, you can 'lead a horse to the water, but you can't make it drink.' And this is the problem, especially today, as young people approach their twenties as an intense career time, and women no less. They've spent many years focused only on that. On top of that, the so-called Green Movement and other globalists have pushed 'earth first' and overpopulation ideas for quite a while now. A smaller, weaker population is easier to manipulate. A lack of family and family connections makes a person prone to helplessness in the global community. We see that upside-down movement in America to reduce the population and, at the same time, invite illegal immigration into the country, for better or worse. So while the overall population is growing in the West, the society is increasingly fragmented and torn, and thus easy pickings for manipulation.The government can increase payments and give away free benefits; however, we notice in Europe, or in Japan, that a supposedly wealthy country'sdownward trend tends to only accelerate. So we're looking first for the real issue: a moral dilemma. A dilemma that starts within the church, as many priests don't have large families and seem to have embraced materialism, to the average couple on the street.And here we go back to the old precepts and commands of God: 'Be fruitful and increase,' and women 'shall be saved by childbearing.' In other words, with family comes children, not by how we feel or if we have money or don't feel we have the strength. This is just the way it is.We often notice, too, families that chose only 1 child, but the child is more problematic than 50 children. We can choose, but we can't choose the result. If the road is heavier with a large family, then so is God's help, as He is walking along with us in life, but if we go our own way, for the Bible says, you serve God or Satan—that's it. So people can choose the so-called easy road, but it will be a road of torture, and even if the road of life is pleasant, then judgment before God will happen at death, regardless of what we believe or feel, or even if we believe in God or not. Reality will be imposed, and the earth's testing place for our 'choices' will now end at death, and our works will then condemn us, without God's mercy. At that point of death, there is no going back and no repentance or change allowed, except for a very, very few.So again, the many years of anti-Christian teaching have invaded our lives, and the young people are especially ripe for error, having no religious background usually or a very shallow type of faith. Just like the taxi driver in 2000 when I came to Russia. He said that he prayed for a Mercedes, and when he didn't get it from God, he gave up on the idea of church. Well, maybe he has his Mercedes now, but those cars are really junk!
