Technological advancements race forward with ever-increasing speed, forcing change at every level of the socio-economic structure. Geographic and national boundaries fade and lose meaning. Communication has become a multifaceted digital array of blurps, bytes and images that can be simultaneously received by an almost limitless number of people anywhere in the world.
The middle class has a wealth of economic resources at its disposal through the reduction of real cost and easy access to credit. Consider air travel, for example. Technological advances and fierce competition have made air travel affordable for the masses (at least in the Western world). Exotic attractions in distant places are within reach.
The world as a village
The accelerated speed at which people move and communicate with ever-decreasing cost has affected every aspect of our world–politically, socially, economically. It’s a phenomenon commonly known as globalization –or, to quote thousands of sound bites, our world has become a global village.
Amazingly, this state of affairs was foretold millennia ago in the Bible. Notice these words recorded by the prophet Daniel: "But you, Daniel, shut up the words (of the amazing prophecies revealed to him), and seal the book until the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase" (Daniel 12:4).
