What is Les's view about today's reported revivals and spiritual awakenings?
He tends to disagree with reports of modern revivals and spiritual awakenings, though he hopes they are true. He sees today's world as so busy and preoccupied, like the days of Noah, that people neglect the open door of salvation.
Les explains that he knows we are reading a lot about so-called revivals and spiritual awakenings, and he certainly hopes that is true, but he tends to disagree. He maintains the world today is so busy, just as in the days of Noah, when people were eating, drinking, marrying, giving in marriage, working, and building. Though those activities are not wrong in themselves, they were under intense activity amid corruption and murder and were heading for doom. The ark's door stood open seven days, but none entered except Noah's family, illustrating how today's busy world can neglect the open door of salvation.
