Revilers - Another Birth Pang
Tell us, when shall these things be and what shall be the sign of your coming, and of the end of the world?
For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy 2 Timothy 3:2.
Revilers - that word jumped out at me. The KJV translates it as blasphemers - the Greek means speaking evil, slanderous, reproachful, railing, abusive. In English, to revile is to speak of something or someone in an insulting and critical way. This is vicious speech.
Look around, the discourse is no longer civil. In doing the research for this blog, I stumbled upon a Russian Metal Band called Bestial Reviler whose album theme was war, evil, and blasphemy. Spouting song titles that I will not repeat, foul. Metal music is an entire genre based in wickedness and Satanic worship. Gangsta rap is the same full of violence and obscenity.

Every day we are assaulted with celebrations or depravity. Every show has a gay agenda. To declare that if you have a penis you should use the men's room brings out the revilers. Gay pride parades celebrate all manner of vile and vicious behavior, if you disagree, you are reviled. I saw a video of a gay man sodomizing a life sized replica of Jesus and then proudly declaring to the crowd that "This was F-ing Jesus". I recoiled in horror and was sickened by the spectacle.
When I first wrote this blog in 2015, I thought it was bad then; I was completely unprepared for what was to come. If you have tried to witness to an unbeliever lately you will often be reviled.
There is coming a day soon when the Lord will no longer withhold his righteous judgement against such behavior. Revilers and blasphemers... they will shake their fist at God. A Reviler is someone who disparages Christians who hold a Biblical worldview and take the Scriptures literally, so for all my Brothers and Sisters out their who claim solidarity with the rainbow crowd, check your revile meter.
Psalm 74:18 Remember how the enemy has mocked you, LORD, how foolish people have reviled your name.

Wow... but I understand this man's deep hatred of God and Jesus, because I used to be there too. I was a very angry and very hateful ex-Christian atheist for many years. But God set me free and restored my faith, thanks in large part to this website.
