2 Timothy 3
Difficult Times Ahead
1 But know this: Difficult times will come in the last days. 2 For people will be lovers of self,lovers of money, boastful, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3unloving, irreconcilable, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, without love for what is good,4 traitors, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 holding to the form of godliness but denying its power. Avoid these people!
Difficult times, indeed. I just did a profoundly depressing search on my local news site.
I wanted to cite an article about a woman who killed her newborn, so, I input "mother kills newborn". I got over 102 links.
Poor, helpless infants killed in horrifying manners. I won't detail. If you're feeling curious you can go look it up for yourself.
I'm sitting in my chair, struck with shock and horror; and glad I do have my faith.
God said it WOULD get this bad.
Matthew 24:12
Due to the wickedness of men, the love of most will grow cold.
