We were warn ed about this back in 1945 I’ve just uncovered another prophecy which I printed 16 years ago in this column I quote: “A warning comes from Great Britain that the rising generation is in great danger of being a loveless one W'arnings from our sister democracy have come to us before, indicating a pattern of what we may expect here “The first was that church bells rung as a call to worship were ignored Then their ringing was prohibited except to warn of invasion Many church buildings neglected as places of worship were bombed and destroyed “Next came the warning with regard to juvenile delinquency as a result of a breakdown in the home Later it happened here “Now comes the new warning of what we may expect here as it is happening in England At a re cent conference there on the so cial education and leisure of the school child strong warnings were heard from many speakers “Britain was warned it faces the peril of citizens with empty | minds because it is rearing a 1 race of children who are unable to love, and are movie and gamb ling mad "One speaker warned that many children in the cities were distinguished by their ‘inability to love anything or anybody' and find destruction easier and more pleasurable than creation be cause they have a satanic instead of a divine sense of values.’ “Another speaker lamented that 'there are some boys and I girl* from whom it seems almost impossible to draw love. The power of love seems to have died within them * “This war was brought on by selfishness at its worst, and if the coming generation is to keep the peace they must learn to love and appreciate something more than self All of this is to be ex pected as people grow away from God Who sent His Son Jesus Christ to show and tell the world what love is like " In the years since 1945 we have witnessed growing selfishness, materialism, and alcoholism. And with these we have raised our own generation of loveless ones They are now all about us as adults — frustrated, fearful, filled with tension. Our mental hospitals are filled to overflow ing The patients in our general hospitals are from 50 to 75 per cent ill with diseases which are from 50 to 75 per cent emotional in origin. A veteran psychiatrist, Dr. Smiley Blanton, puts it to us squarely in his book, “Uve or Perish.” Christmas celebrates the birth of Christ who came to demon strate to men the love of God St Paul wrote, Thanks be unto God for His inexpressahle gift.” The love of God is the greatest gift you can receive, and the greatest you can give.
