For many centuries the fall of Rome marked the death kneel of education and literacy, architecture, and economic interaction. Dark ages was more necessary evil, Rome had to fall to destroy large scale of slavery. The captive barbarians are being fed to wild animals in the Colosseum. The central Roman state collapsed because the migrants forcibly stripped of its tax base which it has used to fund its armies, not because of long term transformation. As the central Roman state ceased to exert power in their localities, they either had to do such deals, or lose the lands that were the basis of their entire wealth. And even where Roman landowners survived, the effects of Rome's fall nonetheless revolutionary.
Many things happened in the pass, many thing happened in our Christianity world. Their are violent reactions and process that come through, but still God is working at hand and transforming the lives of the Roman empire people. At this point of view we see the selfishness of the people, bragging for their selves and not for the glory of God.
In our life we seems to do that things too, not looking to others sake but only for the sake of our self, may this transformation be the caused that we come closer to God. We need to thank the Roman Empire to the things that they suffer that we did not suffer too.

Dark ages...
How Dark Christianity was?
Dark ages emphasis the deterioration of cultural and economical that occurred in the Roman Empire. This was characterized during the 6th - 14th century. The Period is characterized by a relative scarcity of historical and other written records at least for some areas of Europe, rendering it obscure to historians. Within a few years, the leader of what was called the Christian Church were nothing more than bosses of vicious gangs who murdered their rivals for power and position.
Many leaders lead and succeeded and arrested. Constantine wanted to seize power in the east as well as the west, and he saw the Christian cult as the means to his goal. Many things that happened in the time of Dark Ages, what we do not know about happened in our History of Christianity now dark ages reveals us on how Christianity conquered and exist.
It is possible for us to understand how degraded people's minds had become during those 16th centuries in Europe.

historian
If we look at the life of the people, just like our church fathers we can really know them who they are. It's amazing how God works in their lives so that we, today can know God better.
Erasmus Desiderius his life was been changed though he was an illegitimate child but then God is working in his life and we cannot judge him. He has an accurate knowledge for Greek language and he had also many contribution; another is Zwingli, he opposed to unmarried priest, selling indulgences and he tried to apply in scriptural basis, He preach in German language which his people can understand. thirdly is John Calvin, he has a reasons for unexpected turn, he has a strong movement for reform in the church.
Though this three has a different characteristics but still God, is working in their lives yet sometimes we cannot understand how God's plan for our lives but still his purpose will be good and His plan will come true.

Francis of Assisi
It is no use walking anywhere to preach unless our walking is our preaching.

Why Christians doesn't walk their preaching? Why Christians is the number agent of the bad doings rather be the agent of change? What happen to us now Christians?
This quote reminds me of how Christians be the agent of everything for God's Kingdom. We sometimes and often times preach in a useless way because we didn't live by it. We didn't recognize how God's spirit work us through and through. It's so sad that we live in a Christian world but our action is not appropriate, and the tendency is that; we influence other Christians to be hostile in this desolated world.
Christians must be an agent of change but how we can be an agent if we are not walking into the right tract? Assisi reminds me of how Christians live and be an agent through walking their preaching. Sometimes its hard but I let God to undergo this process. I ask God for this experience that i am right now because I feel the emptiness in my heart that I am useless in teaching children and young people without walking with what I told them. I know that I failed in some matters; but I let God to do His will in my life.
I need and I must walk what i talk because I am God's Child and to see others that Christ is living in me.
