I read a news clip that states that one in every one hundred and thirty-six U.S. residents are behind bars. That is an alarming statistic
I wonder what the Canadian statistic is???

Yes, that is higher than I would have guessed. Although when I think about it, it seems about right. In certain neighborhoods in urban areas, a high percentage of residents are in prison, and there are quite a lot of these urban areas.
Those who wait for the Bridegroom's coming are to say to the people, "Behold your God." The last rays of merciful light, the last message of mercy to be given to the world, is a revelation of His character of love.

Well, if this is a sign of the end, then will it get even worse?
I wonder what it was 10, 20 or 50 years ago?
