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. 6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with different lusts.
But our first introductory passage specifies that the signs preceding earth’s final crisis would be similar to what took place in Noah’s day, just before the flood, so, in order to make a reasonable conclusion about where we are in the stream of time, we must do a deep dive into the state of the world before the Antediluvians’ probation was closed.
The perversion of the marriage institution, in all of its various forms are here included. Even though the practice of polygamy, and multiple sex partners was introduced early on, the passages are inclusive of all distortions, variations, and deviations of, and from the original God gave us.
These variations have come down to us in our day, and have morphed into myriad strands including gay marriages, transgender issues, alternative lifestyles, shacking up, and packing up, without a just cause. If you now have the perversion of marriage as being the law of the land then we may know for sure that we have exceeded the Antediluvians by far. Back in Noah’s day, the Antediluvians had their issues with perverted marriages, but as far as we know, they did not go so far as to make it the law of the land.
Genesis 6:1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, 2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
