We most certainly are NOT living in modern day SnG. Can the argument be made that we're headed that way? Sure. But there were WAY worse things going on and if you study Enoch, which was conveniently thrown out, despite Jesus quoting from it, you realize the flood had more to do with angels breeding with humans moreso than "muh sinners" and by extension SnG was moreso because they wanted to breed with the angel. Pedophilia was likely openly accepted and practiced as it would be again in the Roman Empire. In our modern empire, it's very much considered an abhorrent practice even by hardcore lefties. I have yet to encounter someone in LGBTQRSLMNOP specifically who agrees with pedophilia in fact they are vehemently against it and agree that there's an effort to exploit LGBT to normalize it. Don't believe me? Go find the LGBT against Groomers accounts on Twatter. They are out there and fastly growing in abundance, thank God.
In the end, people are free to choose to live how they want. If you can't respect the rights of consenting adults, then you should not be respected either. Calling our culture the " modern day SnG" is the same as overreacting to Seth Macfarlane making a Jesus joke and calling literal persecution when in reality it's the equivalent of an angry child expressing his discontentment towards his Father...
I speak against you and others like you because I grew up in your delusional idea of the world only to venture out into it and discover that Christianity oversells and exaggerates sin NOT because it has our best interests in mind, but rather it intends to control us all. This is antithetical to what Jesus commanded and until He gets back, you are granted authority over exactly yourself and only yourself. It is not your place to control people and that's what Christianity has tried to do. Christians are great people when they accept others and pray for people and let them live their lives. Unfortunately, when given a taste of power, they became corrupt just like everyone else. If you don't think Jesus is coming back because Christianity isn't a contribute to the problem, then you need to restudy Jesus and maybe leave Paul out this time around...
You never disappoint. edit for upvoters Camaro never disappoints in that he always throws shade at the apostle Paul and doesn't believe in the inerrancy of the Bible
49 “I came to send fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! 50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how distressed I am till it is accomplished! 51 Do you suppose that I came to give peace on earth? I tell you, not at all, but rather division. 52 For from now on five in one house will be divided: three against two, and two against three. 53 Father will be divided against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.”
54 Then He also said to the multitudes, “Whenever you see a cloud rising out of the west, immediately you say, ‘A shower is coming’; and so it is. 55 And when you see the south wind blow, you say, ‘There will be hot weather’; and there is. 56 Hypocrites! You can discern the face of the sky and of the earth, but how is it you do not discern this time?
Sorry to be so late with an answer to your reply but....Our world NEEDS REVIVAL. We need to ReAwaken, Restore, and Rejoice in what God has given us. I do not agree with Transgenderism as Genesis 1:27 states that God made man in HIS own image also Same-Sex-Marriage Genesis 5:2 he created them male and female and to be married in Genesis 2:24 and also Leviticus 18:22 as it is an abomination. Just because these are in the Old Testament does not mean God threw them out. He still feels the same. He is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. Jude 1:22-23 states (ALMOST) or means like "Love the sinner hate the sin." This quote is NOT found in the Bible; however these verses are close. I did NOT say I hate these people, only that I hate their sin. And I do NOT want my grandchildren growing up thinking these things are NORMAL by any means. Also abortion is found in Exodus 20:13 as 'Thou shall not kill.'
Yes I understand consenting adults have the right to choose because God gave us all free will. And YES we are in the midst of SnG whether you like it or not or see it or not. It is here. Drag shows, orgies, wife swapping parties, strip clubs, cultisms and other forms of sin. We need to all WAKE UP and face what is being shown us. Then we need to restore ourselves and help restore our world. After that , then we can REJOICE.
I pray you have a blessed day. We are in REVIVAL this week at my church. I will bring up your message and get some input from my 2 pastors and junior pastor. If I am wrong, I will be back later to apologize. Until then, I am holding my SWORD.

What are your thoughts on Jesus saying this?
49 “I came to send fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! 50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how distressed I am till it is accomplished! 51 Do you suppose that I came to give peace on earth? I tell you, not at all, but rather division. 52 For from now on five in one house will be divided: three against two, and two against three. 53 Father will be divided against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.”

You can discern the face of the sky and of the earth, but how is it you do not discern this time?
Also read Matthew 6:24. You may find this useful. God bless.
