2nd Timothy 3:This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good.
[Patriarchs & Prophets pp 101] The spirit of anarchy is permeating all nations, and the outbreaks that from time to time excite the horror of the world are but indications of the pent-up fires of passion and lawlessness that, having once escaped control, will fill the earth with woe and desolation.
There are those who erroneously think that on their own they could resist satan’s incursions, and for this reason some have decided, and others are planning to resist the predicted dangers of the final conflicts, during the last days of earth’s history, without Christ in the heart. We have some bad news for such persons, if they’ll continue to harbor that perspective, because when prime time comes around, and such persons are not found in Christ, the devil will force you to do his will, using his baseball bat.
And according to the Scriptures, we have not seen anything as yet, for these are just the early tremors of a much larger conflict that will culminate in the close of probation. The issues are so serious that we must now read from the pen of inspiration the truth about the matter, before we proceed.
2nd Timothy 3:4 Traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
