The Bible tells us that in the last days lawlessness will abound and men will wax worse and worse. (2 Timothy 3:13). The love of many will grow cold because of all the injustice and lawlessness. (Matthew 24:12).
What we are seeing as we watch current events unfold today is a manifestation of what God’s word has told us. Jesus says in John 14:29 “And now I have told you before it comes to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.”
Some of the things we see today are coming to pass before our very eyes:
- Good is evil and evil is being called good
- Perilous times
- Lawlessness
- Wars and rumors of wars
There will also be increases in violence, hedonism, pride, arrogance, liberalism, homosexuality, etc. that will eventually lead to a breakdown in the traditional family and social order.
Let’s let God’s word speak for itself on the rest:
Mat 24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.
Mat 24:10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
Mat 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
Mat 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
Mat 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
Mat 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Mat 24:37 But as the days of Noah [were], so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Mat 24:38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark,
Mat 24:39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
2 Th 2:9 [Even him], whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
2 Th 2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
2 Th 2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
2 Th 2:12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
2 Ti 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 Ti 3:2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
2 Ti 3:3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
2 Ti 3:4 Traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
2 Ti 3:5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
BUT GOD will win in the end and if he be for us who can be against us? Romans 8:31
Remember he told us these things so that when they come to pass, we will believe. Is not the Bible even more evident now than before? The closer we get the more clear what the Bible says becomes. It’s happening so fast now. Agree with God and accept Jesus now. Time is running out.
“Come now, and let us reason together, says the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.” – Isaiah 1:18
