#78 LIVING IN PERILOUS TIMES

PREACHING IS INTENDED TO CHANGE HEARTS, NOT TO ENTERTAIN.  Paul warned Timothy that perilous times would come in the last days. (2 Tim. 3:1)  Little did the great apostle know that the last days would be 2020. We look south with great concern and empathy for America, as the greatest nation on earth. Godly principles seem to have abandoned in the name of political expediency and corporate profits.  Indeed people are "lovers of themselves, money lovers, boasters, arrogant, abusive, and disobedient to their parents.  WE are ungrateful, unholy,  inhuman, implacable, slanderers, profligates, brutes, haters of good.  Treachery abounds. People are reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to the outward form of godliness but denying its power." (2 Tim. 3:2-5)
