When shall the end come if you're serving your fellow neighbours? The purpose is to provide salt and light. Don't worry if he feels too good with a discounted pair of TJ Maxx( brand) socks. Your job is to be thankful for what you found on sale so don't steal the store brand socks...again.

There is no doubt about an "end" to the world. Pompeii and its demise, the San Francisco earth quake, in addition to WWI and WWII are examples. It's also amazing that some survivors of these historical ( "end of the world")events give up in faith and repent in the opposite direction. See Romans 8. The generation that witnessed these events with falling buildings and saboteurs or the generations that witnessed the rebuilding may have thought that the prophesied end of the world had come. Hobbes must have witnessed the aftermath of the English civil war. He also lived through part of it. "The book of Hobbes" is not unlike the Book of Eli(movie) but with one bible and possibly four humans consisting of two males and females at minimum, there is no end but only hope for a new beginning. Before Hobbes' time, man became used to civil virtues such as roads, toilets, steam baths, and "diner, dejeuner and petit dejeuner" fare served at table with chairs and glasses. The Lord knows when He has decided how the "end" shall come and what will constitute that "end"-See Matthew 24. Until then, occupy your time. Everybody, gets bad teeth eating too much chocolate and the grocery store runs out of your favorite bread every now and again. Why do you have grocery stores?; so that you can stock up again. Now, leave your neighbour's kitchen alone and just be thankful for civil society. If you want to be really close to people or if you are feeling a little lonely, join a chess club, bible study or a bridge club. Natural law will not change and nor will our obvious human nature. While there is a culture to every popular national and not so global sport, the culture of a sport and living by expectations of that sport and its culture will not amount to an alibi for one's communal misdeeds and incivility. Zombies, Vampires and the rich man seen in Luke 16:22 are from the same species. They are the living dead and are angry with the regenerate living( Strengthen what remains-Revelations 3:2.).  They are not human but aberrations of the living.  What wife has a right to getting her anger out and giving her family the disease she picked up getting her anger out on her husband while spending too much time 'vacuuming" an old boyfriend who got disease getting his anger out on his girlfriend? She used a PMS alibi. The boyfriend's alibi was that he was not a "boy".  See Romans 8. Try 1st Corinthians 13.  Salvation is commensurate with a soul that desires the fruits of the spirit and the mind that will be able to appreciate that letting Antwone Fisher(movie) know about ribtips (instead of bacon) and bed bugs with that female older cousin too early has nothing to do with cultural preservation on either side of the Atlantic but a serious need for more fruit of the spirit and not only on Sunday with a Hammond organ but every day so you won't be surprised about Antwone being able to get in to Harvard Medical School. He studied his chemistry three times so that he would only have to write it once and got consistent A's and B's in Senior High School chemistry. I still cry when I watch Leave it to Beaver or the other docudrama or comedy. Who would want to pillage a village or shire full of neighbours simply because they respected their school teacher and never failed to forget that the right answer is in front of you if you are doing a multiple choice exam designed for a reasonable student who is provided with reasonable materials?  A person who is jealous of such a village is not very civil and may be the descendent of Cain( as in Cain and Abel).  When humans no longer desire commodious living but something more arduous and barbaric,  then the season is upon you. Read Proverbs 14:1. See Matthew 24.    Most women like a Hoover Vacuum cleaner as a modern convenience.  The day may come when they hate vacuums and ironing. Until then, let salt preserve(Matthew 5) and let light show the peaceful way since life is not about a race track of egos amongst grade school, high school, sporting or professional colleagues. It is about service. What denomination cannot agree with Matthew 7 and Acts 2? Why do you spend so much time hastening the "end" of the world that you worry about by using four-ply toilet paper as you just "do"? Sing some Unities( not rifts).  Read Desiderata( as found in a church in 16th century Boston and written by a Christian Munk) and Romans 8 and enjoy your time without stealing someone else's art project or science project with the justification being that you stole car keys and felt that the artist did not respect himself.
