Wikipedia defines endangered species as a population of organisms which is facing a high risk of becoming extinct because it is either few in numbers, or threatened by changing environmental or predation parameters.
There are those species that are already extinct, those that are extinct in the wild, those which are critically endangered, then the endangered, and then the vulnerable.
EndangeredSpecie.com is a website dedicated to “providing all the best endangered species information, links, books, and publications regarding rare and endangered species. This site also includes information about conservation efforts and endangered species organizations that are dedicated to saving and preserving the world’s most endangered wildlife and plant life.”
According to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service there are 746 species of plants and 516 species of animals on the endangered species list in North America alone.
Money raising schemes abound to try and help so many worthy causes.
Without belittling the hard work and efforts of these fine organisations, there is an endangered species which is of far greater importance than any they may represent. And that is the true Christian, those whom God has called at this time to live His Way of Life and who will become part of His Family at the time of Christ’s return.
We are preparing to keep the Passover in just over two weeks’ time, and most people will have very little knowledge, if any, of what this means. The secular society will still be keeping Easter as a holiday, and the Days of Unleavened Bread will mean absolutely nothing to them. Even churchgoers would probably find it incomprehensible, as we follow the clear instructions in the Word of God.
We see almost daily the constant barrage of anti-biblical rulings, antagonism and antipathy towards true Christianity that would not have even been considered that long ago. But as we approach the time when Christ must return to save mankind from blowing itself off the face of the planet, the correct reading of Scripture shows that this is inevitable.
We should not be surprised as we have not been promised an easy life. God has to find out about us and we are tested and tried in many different ways and, being an endangered species at the end time, is part of that process.
