“...Save yourselves from this untoward generation.” - Acts 2:40
Untoward, according to the Oxford Dictionary of English means: unusual and unexpected, and usually unpleasant. Needless to say it has a lot of 'un' or negative connotations. It does not mean iconoclastic or different in a good way. In the context it is used in the Bible, it is the collective derailment of a large group of people, of a generation.
Our generation has largely departed from God. We let other things take priority and worse, some claim they do not even believe in the existence of an Almighty. I would rather believe I am beautifully and wonderfully made, than that I am the haphazard side-effect of some big bang.
Save yourself from this generation. Many things are explained in so-called logic but all such theories are full of loopholes. Look into your life and the different circumstances. Can you truly account for everything? Can you truly deny the existence of a greater one?
Jesus is waiting with His arms wide open. Why don't you go to Him now and leave the depression and solitude that not having a Saviour brings. Save yourself from this untoward generation.
“With many other words He warned them; and He pleaded with them, “Save yourselves from this corrupt generation.”” -Acts 2:40
