Have you ever thought about what God the Father dreamed of when He created the heavens and the earth and all things in them before the beginning? He desired to lead as many people as possible with even one more soul to Heaven, where it is clear and beautiful as crystal. He wanted to lead them to New Jerusalem where His glory dwells. And, He wanted to share love with them forever.
Then what is the dream of the enemy devil and Satan who oppose God? It is to lead even one more soul to Hell, the place of the eternal punishment, and even to the deeper level of Hell that was full of darkness and misery.
Development of electronic media and the signs of the end time
The electronic media catches the eyes and ears of people with fancy-looking and the drawing sounds of content that is under the cloak of information delivery and it instills sins into the hearts of people. At first, they feel alienated by such contents, but the alienation becomes diluted as they repeatedly watch music videos, soap operas, or films with a similar genre of content. Then, they come to accept the contents as things that could possibly happen and even consider the sins as being tolerable.
Just since 2000 the public attitude has been transformed by the outpouring of the mass-media portraying various social problems such as tattoos, premarital sexual relations, living together without being legally married, infidelity, divorce, abortion, and homosexuality to be acceptable. The development of the Internet and wireless Internet service has also caused viewers and users to come under this 'carpet-bombing' of Satan. Most of the contents have been produced for individual profit and almost all of it is detrimental to our lives as Christians.
I cannot explain in detail here, but the antichrist's idea, symbol, and messages that are hidden within and permeate the popular culture are pretty shocking. Since the only media contents that are in demand anywhere in the world can make profits, there are many programs that stimulate sinful natures in human beings, and they are now tempting viewers with the cloak of high-technology and splendid visual appeal.
Today, Social Networking Service (SNS) drives the formation of public opinion very quickly and causes many incidents that occur to be spread without the reality related to the stories. Some romanticize sins leading to death like suicide, murder, and fornication and others support homosexuality. The positive view of RFID (Radio-frequency Identification: the wireless non-contact use of radio-frequency electromagnetic fields to transfer data, for the purposes of automatically identifying and tracking tags attached to objects; i.e. 'chip technology'), so-called 666 Mark, is spreading like poison. As the end time draws nearer, the world is overrun with crimes that could never have been imagined in the recent past.
Dangerous films, dangerous young people
In July, 2013, Korea was shocked by the case of a teenage murderer and his case raised public concern. He strangled a girl to death after he tried to sexually assault her in a motel and she struggled against his rape attempts. He took a box cutter from the bathroom and brutally dismembered her corpse just as he had learned in a film. To easily move the body, he cut chunks of her body and flushed them in the toilet. He placed some bones in plastic bags and kept them. The boy turned himself in to police after the launching of a massive search for the missing girl.
"The emotions that can make one feel like a human being have drained out of me. I did not feel any sense of guilt or sadness or anger, but I do have just a slight smile. I shall sleep tonight in full odor of blood."
He posted the writing on his SNS account. He was not consuming alcohol, and there are no records of mental illnesses. But while dismembering the corpse, he even texted his friends 16 times saying, "I am working on it," "I am in Hell," and "I will get punished in Hell". The police officers were struck with shock by the fact that one who was a teenager, was not drunk, and had no record of criminal history could have committed such grotesque crimes.
Hearing the news about him, people became curious about what kind of student he was and what kind of people usually hung around with him. But there was nothing and no one in peculiar. Surprisingly, he was remembered as a nice boy who took care of his friends. A film was thought to have impacted his criminal technique, something that caused netizens to get upset.
The film was 'Hostel' which was about travelers to Eastern Europe who were kidnapped, tortured, and murdered by a secret group of people. The movie that was produced for monetary profits and entertainment was the learning field in which a teenage boy committed a copycat crime—murdering and dismembering the corpse.
