“But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people.” – 2 Timothy 3:1-5
That evil can not be appeased is a lesson we should have learned in WWII, but we apparently did not. Evil must be defeated. And with God’s Help-it will be!
But while we wait patiently upon the Lord, we must keep our eyes, and our hearts, focused on Him. And we must protect ourselves from anyone who would lead us down the slippery slope away from God.
In Matthew 10:16 it says, ““Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves. Be ye therefore wise as serpents and harmless as doves.”
We need to take this warning seriously. The Light of the Holy Spirit is alive and well in us ?
But we are surrounded by those who wish to destroy that Light-Don’t Let Them! And don’t spend time with them!
Because we can only share the Light of the Holy Spirit if it exists within ourselves!
So in our desire to bring everyone to Heaven with us; we must also be wise, and not loose our own place ?
