Throughout history, humans have often struggled with the way power is used. When people gain power, they tend to use it to control or dominate others, often at their expense. This desire for power has led to cycles of oppression, where the vulnerable are exploited, and the powerful continue to seek more control. It’s not just about one group harming another, but a constant battle to maintain authority by any means necessary. This has been the reality for countless generations, and it raises difficult questions about human nature and the future of our societies.
Why is it that humans continue to hurt each other even when they know it causes suffering? Will we ever see the end of this pain? Can humanity break free from this cycle of oppression and suffering?
Oppression and the Power Struggle
Oppression is a concept that has shaped the history of humanity. It’s not just about physical violence or wars; it’s about the systematic denial of people’s rights, their freedoms, and their humanity. Whenever individuals or groups are in power, they try to keep it up by exploiting others. The need to dominate, to control, is so strong that it outweighs the need for fairness or justice. People, when given power, can find it almost impossible to maintain it without taking something from others. This pattern of behavior has been present throughout history, and it raises the question: why do we continue to repeat it?
The Challenge of Overcoming Human Nature
Why is it so hard to change this cycle of power and oppression? One reason is that human desires often overshadow moral principles. When people are in power, they tend to become more selfish, placing their own wants above what is right. The desire for control, for more resources, or for wealth can drive people to make choices that hurt others. It’s a constant struggle to balance our personal desires with ethical responsibility. These questions about power and morality are difficult to answer, and they make it clear that achieving fairness and justice is far from simple.
The Promise of a Savior: Hope for the Future
The return of the Savior will bring an end to suffering and injustice, marking the beginning of a new era of peace and fairness. Jesus will return in glory, defeating evil and establishing a kingdom where justice prevails. Alongside him, Imam al-Mahdi will also return, and together they will bring about an era of equality and righteousness. This is not just a hope, but a certainty that will one day transform the world.
However, this new era will not come without difficulty. Before their return, the world will face challenging times. Falsehoods will be spread, and many will try to mislead the people, painting the Savior and Imam al-Mahdi as villains. The journey toward a just world will not be easy, but it will be worth it. Those who understand the truth must stay vigilant, resist the lies, and hold fast to the hope that their return will ultimately bring about a just world.
While the return of the Savior and Imam al-Mahdi will bring the ultimate justice, we must not wait passively for this moment to arrive. The end of human suffering cannot be achieved by doing nothing. Real change requires us to act now. We must work together, resist complacency, and stand up against oppression. If we want to create a just world, we must start building it ourselves. It is through our collective efforts that we will shape the world for the better, preparing ourselves for the arrival of those who will bring true peace.
