"Know this also, that in the last days, shall come dangerous times. Men shall be lovers of themselves, covetous, haughty, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, wicked, without affection, without peace, slanderers, incontinent, unmerciful, without kindness, traitors, stubborn, puffed up, and lovers of pleasures more than of God; having an appearance indeed of godliness, but denying the power thereof. Now these avoid." 2 Timothy 3:1-5
Clearly, we are living in turbulent times. Times are only going to get more difficult as the days grow darker before the return of the Lord. Yes, in fact Jesus will return...but before He does have you read the book lately? Its not going to get easier folks, sorry to burst your bubble. We must wake up and smell the coffee, but not stop there. You might disagree with me, and that is okay. If you disagree with God's word that is between You and the Creator. All I am saying is be alert and sober and PRAY. Timothy was told to avoid anyone who fit into the category of the list described above. We too must be light in the darkness but not blend in to the darkness. There must be a distinction if we are children of God. There is no middle ground.
Be encouraged to fight the good fight of faith, and do not give up. Not now, not never. Now is the time to hold fast to what you believe no matter what comes our way. Be strong and courageous friends.
