In reference to the 'blood moons' ...it seems to me that there is more eagerness than arrogance.

When the wise men (or magi) began to follow the different star ...it would not seem to me that God would go ahead and have His Son born on earth to save the reputation of the men traveling from afar, so they would not ruin their credibility as wise men.

God had set it up so they would be interested in the star. And I don't think He is disappointed by the interest by those anticipating His return.

When He says, "An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign; and a sign will not be given it, except the sign of Jonah." ---Matthew 16:4     

Well, we certainly are that ...and that may actually be more of a sign.  We may be eager for a sign ...but it will not be the foundation of our faith.  There will be more signs we will reject, not as mere moons or stars ...but as a reflection of a society's rejection of God's principles.  Power and conviction often challenge each other in the public square.

Even Wikipedia has it down quite well.

Itching ears is a term used in the Bible to describe a person who seeks out messages that please them and fit their lifestyle, as opposed to seeking a truth that might make them uncomfortable. 

2 Timothy 4:3-4: For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. 

And speaking of fables, it is very disturbing what is happening.  Not only is there an attempt to remove God from consideration with the theories of evolution held in such high esteem ...the political/educational system teams together to label as intolerant any stand of conviction. Added to those attacks is an assault on the credibility of how men of the Bible are presented.

I've read of the heart of King David, though not perfect ...he was not defiant against God, as I've seen depicted.  And more recent, though going back further in the Bible ...was the representation of Noah.  God had chosen him to survive, as the only righteous family of eight ...with him at the head, presented in a movie as an insane wild man.  Wouldn't that imply that the One who choosing that kind of character is also suspect?  And even more recently, I hear of a claim that Jesus was married. I am fully aware that there are always insane claims.  But, the worst is ...seeing and hearing how many people fall for it.

The truth that God is more concerned about is not whether we can guess, or discern other signs ...but rather that we follow the truths of His Word.

It has nothing to do with whether we will be affected by global warming, or how we pollute our atmosphere. It has to do with how we pollute our hearts away from Him.  

Others will claim they are more compassionate, and have a true heart for the people.  But, we are not to have a heart to the people ...we are to turn our heart towards God.

Does that mean that people who follow God are not compassionate towards people in the world?  Certainly this is not true.  Missionaries do not only drop Bibles, and then walk away ...they help with feeding the hungry, and with medical aid.

Churches form soup kitchens ...hoping the government does not put stringent standards on them, to limit their availability to serve.  If they think the practices of charitable organizations should be questioned ...would they think that food stamps can just be doled out to enter dilapidated houses with unsanitary conditions.

So much for the argument that believers don't care about other people ...because they care more is why they get all their criticism.  They also care about a person's salvation ...their eternal status.

"Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger; for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God."

"My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me."

"So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God."
