Generation Z: A Call to Wake Up and Return to Truth By General James Green
The Tragedy of Our Time
The sins of past generations are being visited upon our children. While many parents enjoyed a life of excess and rebellion, it is the children who now suffer the consequences. Kids—lost, confused, and searching for meaning—have become the tragic symbol of a world gone astray.
The Crisis of a Lost Generation
Children and young adults today are bombarded with negative influences:
- Media and Entertainment: Movies, TV shows, and music glorify rebellion, drugs, and violence, turning wrongdoers into heroes.
- Family Breakdown: The family unit has collapsed, with kids often left to be raised by screens rather than loving parents.
- Identity Crisis: Pre-teens to young adults are confused, struggling to find their place in a society that has abandoned moral values.
The Alarming Reality
In the pursuit of pleasure and material wealth, many parents have neglected their true responsibilities:
- Violence and Crime: It's now common for students to carry weapons, engage in drug use, and even commit acts of violence at school.
- Prostitution and Substance Abuse: Many children turn to these dark paths in their quest for acceptance or simply to survive.
- Spiritual Decay: Involvement in the occult and satanism is on the rise, with some turning to shocking acts of violence and ritual.
The Root of the Problem
- Abortion: When society legally protects the act of taking an unborn life, what message does this send to our youth about the value of human life?
- Neglect and Hypocrisy: Many homes are rife with neglect, abuse, and a lack of true love. Children are left to fend for themselves, and the streets often appear more welcoming.
- Discipline Rejected: The overemphasis on "humanism" and the fear of disciplining children have led to chaos. The Bible offers guidance, but society has largely abandoned its wisdom.
The Urgent Need for Change
We have a crisis on our hands. The streets are soaked with blood, and a lost generation is rushing headlong toward destruction. But there is hope. It begins with repentance, responsibility, and returning to the truth of God's Word.
The Solution: A Return to Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ is the answer to the darkness surrounding Generation Z. He offers forgiveness, transformation, and a new way of life:
Prayer of Salvation: Dear Jesus, I come to you with all the sins I've committed and I beg you to forgive me. I confess that I am a sinner and that I cannot save myself. Please cleanse my body, soul, and spirit with your precious blood. I need your help and I ask you to come and live in my heart. I want to serve you, obey your commands, and do what is right. I want to live for you every day. Please lead and guide me by your Spirit into righteousness. Help me live a clean and holy life that is pleasing unto God. Thank you, Jesus, for hearing and answering my prayer. Amen!
What Can We Do?
- Parents: Examine your own lifestyle. Are you setting a godly example for your children?
- Communities: Reach out to the lost, share your time and love, and guide the youth toward a brighter future.
- Everyone: Let's care enough to make a change, to step in and lead this generation back from the brink.
Generation Z is not beyond hope. There is a way out of the chaos, and it starts with us. Will you join the call to save this lost generation?
Read the Bible and find the truth that can set us free.
