The sin of kicking the can down the road can turn into a snowballing or a runaway train.
In my NYU independent study, Sociology of Religion, I looked at countries who identified themselves religiously.
England could be authoritarian in John Milton’s Paradise Lost or it could be the revolutionaries of Oliver Cromwell–two paradises have been lost.
The U.S. could have kicked the national debt can down the road so much that it has turned into a snowball-boulder of an avalanche irresponsibly, and sinfully causing destruction and leading the U.S. from diplomatic economics into sinful militarism due to scarcities.
Did
God
Jesus
Julius Caesar
Seneca and Nero
or Plato
discuss avoiding this evolution of sin?
Revelation 11: cf. eg. Revelation 11:9 talks about “kicking the bucket” and “kicking the can”. Revelation 11:13 talks about the snowballing or runaway train.
There was 2 dead to bury but they did not do it, and then later there was 7000 dead to bury as a consequence of not burying the 2.
I disagree.
That’s not the what Revelation says.
Second, the Revelation quote beginning at 11:9 cannot be applied to the problem I mentioned.
11:3 Two Witnesses
11:4 who stand before the Lord of the earth
11:5 anyone who harms them will be devoured
11:7 after they testify, a beast will attack them and kill them
11:8 their bodies will be in the public square
11:9 people will look at them and refuse to bury them
11:10 because these two prophets tormented those who live on earth
11:11 God will breathe life into them
11:12 and call them up to heaven while people on earth will look
11:13 There is an earthquake and 7,000 people were killed
