IN THE LAST DAYS

Scripture: 2 Timothy 3:1-5 “This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.  For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.”

    Paul tells us here that in the last days, perilous times would come.  The word “perilous” means “dangerous or hazardous”. He is warning here that the last days would be days filled with danger.  So much danger in the days that we are living in.  Surely we are living in the last days.
    He describes the men living in the last days by saying that they would be “lovers of their own selves”.  He also said that they would be “covetous”, which means that they were desirous of what others had.  They are boasters which are simply those who boast and vaunt about what they have or what they have done.  They are proud.  They will be blasphemers meaning that they speak of God in irreverent terms.  He says that they will be disobedient to parents. They are unthankful.  He says they are unholy.    
    He also tells us that they are without natural affection. They are trucebreakers. They will be false accusers.  He says that they will be incontinent which means they will be indulging lust without constraint.  They will be fierce or violent.  They are said to be “despisers of those that are good”.  They will love the evil and hate the good and that involves those that do good.  They are traitors, ones who violate their allegiance.  They are highminded, those who think too highly of themselves.  
    Then he says that they will be “lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God”. He said that they will have a form of godliness, but deny the power thereof.  They talk about God, but they deny the power that He has.  We are warned here to turn away from such folks. Surely we are living in the last days. This passage of Scripture reads just like the present time we are living.  Get ready!  Jesus is coming again soon!
