Let us see what God says in Scripture about this condition.<\/p>\n<h2>Apathy is the complacency of fools<\/h2>\n<p>So apathy is described by King Solomon in the book of Proverbs. All this book is addressed to young people and from the first chapter it urges them to leave the apathy and take heed to the Word of God. In the second part of chapter 1 of the book of Proverbs, the author uses a personification and we are presented the desperate cry and call the wisdom makes to the apathetic ones:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\">\n<p>Wisdom shouts in the street, she <sup><\/sup>lifts her voice in the square; at the head of the noisy <i>streets<\/i> she cries out;      <br \/>At the entrance of the gates in the city she utters her sayings: \u201cHow long, O <sup><\/sup><sup><\/sup>naive ones, will you love <sup><\/sup>being simple-minded? And <sup><\/sup>scoffers delight themselves in scoffing and fools <sup><\/sup>hate knowledge? Turn to my reproof, behold, I will <sup><\/sup>pour out my spirit on you; I will make my words known to you. (Proverbs 1:20-23)(NASB)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>But because they do not want to take heed, wisdom warns them about the consequences the apathetic ones should expect \u2026<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\">\n<p>Because <sup><\/sup>I called and you <sup><\/sup>refused, I <sup><\/sup>stretched out my hand and no one paid attention; and you <sup><\/sup>neglected all my counsel and did not <sup><\/sup>want my reproof; I will also <sup><\/sup>laugh at your <sup><\/sup>calamity; I will mock when your <sup><\/sup>dread comes, when your dread comes like a storm and your calamity comes like a <sup><\/sup>whirlwind, when distress and anguish come upon you. Then they will <sup><\/sup>call on me, but I will not answer; they will <sup><\/sup>seek me diligently but they will not find me. (Proverbs 1:24-28)(NASB)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Then the author shows the causes of apathy among young people \u2026<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\">\n<p>Because they <sup><\/sup>hated knowledge and did not choose the fear of the LORD. They <sup><\/sup>would not accept my counsel,      <br \/>They spurned all my reproof. (Proverbs 1:29-30)(NASB)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>And the list of consequences for those who live in apathy continues \u2026<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\">\n<p>So they shall <sup><\/sup>eat of the fruit of their own way and be <sup><\/sup>satiated with their own devices. For the <sup><\/sup><strong>waywardness of the <sup><\/sup>naive<\/strong> will kill them, and the <strong>complacency of fools<\/strong> will destroy them. But <sup><\/sup>he who listens to me shall <sup><\/sup>live securely      <br \/>and will be at ease from the dread of evil. (Proverbs 1:31-33)(NASB)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>I draw attention once again that apathy to holy things and to future is defined here as the waywardness of the naive and complacency of fools.<\/p>\n<h2>Do not be apathetic to the dangers the future holds<\/h2>\n<p>In the book that bears his name, prophet Isaiah warned people about the dangers that would come upon Israel, but almost no one wanted to take heed. Therefore, at one point he wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\">\n<p>Rise up, you <sup><\/sup>women who are at ease, a<i>nd<\/i> hear my voice; give ear to my word, you complacent daughters. Within a year and <i>a few<\/i> days you will be troubled, O complacent <i>daughters<\/i>; for the vintage is ended, a<i>nd<\/i> the <i>fruit<\/i> gathering will not come. Tremble, you <i>women<\/i> who are at ease; be troubled, you complacent <i>daughters<\/i>; strip, undress and put <i>sackcloth<\/i> on <i>your<\/i> waist, beat your breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine. (Isaiah 32:9-12)(NASB)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In the book of the prophet Ezekiel, when God rebuked His people for disloyalty to Him, He compared them with a woman who had committed fornication and had surpassed Sodom in doing evil and thus, He compared and personified the city of Sodom with a woman again, saying<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\">\n<p>Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had <sup><\/sup>arrogance, <sup><\/sup>abundant food and <sup><\/sup>careless ease, but she did not <sup><\/sup>help the <sup><\/sup>poor and needy. (Ezekiel 16:49)(NASB)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah were indulged in unimaginable fornication, perversion and evil, yet they believed that there would be no consequences for all that. But the consequences did not delay \u2013 these cities were destroyed by God with fire that came down from heaven. Today many young people live in apathy and they think that they can live their life how they want because they will not suffer and their sins will have no consequences. Let not one be deceived by this, but hurry to repent of their sins.<\/p>\n<h2>Do not be apathetic towards the salvation of your soul<\/h2>\n<p>In the Epistle to Hebrews, the author says since the second chapter of the book:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\">\n<p>For this reason we must pay much closer attention to <sup><\/sup>what we have heard, so that <sup><\/sup>we do not drift away <i>from it<\/i>. For if the word <sup><\/sup>spoken through <sup><\/sup>angels proved <sup><\/sup>unalterable, and <sup><\/sup>every transgression and disobedience received a just <sup><\/sup><sup><\/sup>penalty, <sup><\/sup>how will we escape if we <strong>neglect <\/strong>so great a <sup><\/sup>salvation? <sup><\/sup>After it was at the first <sup><\/sup>spoken through the Lord, it was <sup><\/sup>confirmed to us by those who heard, God also testifying with them, both by <sup><\/sup>signs and wonders and by <sup><\/sup>various <sup><\/sup>miracles and by <sup><\/sup><sup><\/sup>gifts of the Holy Spirit <sup><\/sup>according to His own will. (Hebrews 2:1-4)(NASB)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Do not be apathetic, Beloved, to your future in eternity. Understand that your soul is eternal and it can be saved, so that you may rejoice for eternity in God\u2019s presence in His kingdom, or go into an eternal suffering where all those who rejected the salvation offered through Jesus Christ will go. Do not be careless, but hurry up to <a href=\"https:\/\/moldovacrestina.md\/en\/how-to-enter-the-new-covenant-with-the-lord-jesus-christ\/\">enter the New Covenant with Jesus Christ<\/a> and be saved.<\/p>\n<h2>Do not be an apathetic Christian<\/h2>\n<p>In the first epistle to Timothy, the Apostle Paul wrote to his beloved disciple the following words:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\">\n<p>Do not neglect the spiritual gift within you, which was bestowed on you through <sup><\/sup>prophetic utterance with <sup><\/sup>the laying on of hands by the <sup><\/sup><sup><\/sup>presbytery. (1 Timothy 4:14)(NASB)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Every Christian received some gifts from the Holy Spirit when he entered the New Covenant with Jesus Christ and was born again. We received these spiritual gifts to serve the Church of Christ, or saints that make up this church. How do you use the gift or gifts you have received? Do not be careless or apathetic to the gifts you have received, but serve others through them.<\/p>\n<p><em>Translated by Felicia Rotaru<\/em><\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Question: What does the Bible say about apathy, that is, when you do not care about your future?
