Ferocious Times

The apostles declared that we are living in the “last days” the intense era that began with Christ’s first coming and will end with His return. In these “latter times,” Paul warned, many will depart from the faith, seduced by demonic doctrines, becoming “fierce, despisers of those that are good,” trucebreakers, and lovers of every evil (1 Tim. 4:1; 2 Tim. 3:1–3). The result is not mere difficulty but “perilous times” literally ferocious times when civilization itself clothes malice and hatred of righteousness in polished forms. The civilized barbarian has emerged, breaking treaties, despising truth, and unleashing open war against Christ and His people. Yet Paul, who faced this ferocity firsthand, declared with unshakable confidence, “The Lord shall deliver me from every evil work” (2 Tim. 4:18). In these ferocious last days, the battle is fierce, but the victory is certain: Christ is Lord over all, and we are more than conquerors in Him. #FerociousTimes #LastDays #VictoryInChrist
