3. Developments in the 1900's
In the previous chapter we primarily wished to show:
How the Bible's main themes are divided into the three parts of
the illustrated series.
That societal development and population growth have set the
stage for the greatest revival in the history of the world.
In this chapter, we wish to show that despite the enormous
technological developments of the 1900's, moral improvements have not
kept pace. On the contrary, society demonstrates a greater self-
absorption than ever before, becoming less civilized, and more animal-
like.

"If we continue to live like animals, we risk also dying like
animals."

- The Bible's bleakest prophecies of the future are not intended to
scare us,
- but to warn us so that we can possibly repent in time.
