USA Television’s drama Dig is another show in a long lists of programming trying to tap into the fascination with End Time Theology. Filmed in the Middle East, the main character is an FBI agent based in Jerusalem. While investigating the murder of an archeologist, he uncovers a 2000 year old conspiracy primed to change the course of history.
People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, – 2 Timothy 3:2
Unfortunately, this flawed view is nothing more than revisionist history, following in the footsteps of the Da Vinci Code, Jesus Seminars and Gnosticism who seek to create doubt in the minds of Bible believing Christians. Like shrewd politicians, Hollywood thinks if you bombard society enough, repeating the same lie over and over again, sooner or later individuals will embrace these opinions as fact.
without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God. – 2 Timothy 3:3-4
Yet, the educated, informed and students of biblical history have to look no further than 2 Timothy 3:1-9 to see what is happening. The world is transforming in front of us daily, fulfilling the words of the apostle Paul. Whenever you tune into cable news or listen to a update on the radio, breaking news reveals an act, crime or tragedy motivated by one of the selfish characteristics within 2 Timothy 3:1-9. If anyone wants to dig up end time theology, the Old Testament contains several prophecies that have come true with more still waiting before Jesus returns to earth. Thus, may the warnings of the Bible create a sense of urgency in souls to get their lives in order before the Second Coming catches you by surprise.
