One example is given by Christ on the road to Calvary.
Luke 23:28
But Jesus, turning to them, said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, don't weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
Luke 23:29
For behold, the days are coming in which they will say, 'Blessed are the barren, the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed.'

These words of
our Lord Yeshua/Jesus have not come true till this generation. For
thousands of years women have wanted children, and having many children
was seen as a blessing. Today, on the contrary, it is socially
unacceptable to have a large family, and some countries even forcibly
sterilize women. Therefore, most women nowadays have been led to
believe that being barren is wonderful, and they take birth control
pills. They want careers, and see children as a burden.
Christ predicted this day and age when He stated people would say "Blessed are the barren!" |
Another example is in the book of Isaiah:
|
Isaiah 3:4
And I will make mere lads their princes, and capricious children will rule over them,
Isaiah 3:12
O My people! Their oppressors are children, and women rule over them.
O My people! Those who guide you lead you astray and confuse the direction of your paths.
Women did not have, as a rule, such a position of leadership until this time.
The oppressors are children because most gangs are made up of children.
Also, terrorists recruit little kids because they make excellent martyrs. In
addition, technology is changing so fast that the wisdom
of elderly people is no more desired or revered. Children usually
know more about computer technology than many old people. Therefore,
these words of the prophet Isaiah have come to pass in this generation.
