People in the Last Days

Instead of explaining some of the world’s events, the Bible also foretold the changes in people in the last days. The apostle Paul foretold what they are like: “There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of money, lovers of themselves, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them” (2 Timothy 3:1-6). I believe almost everyone all over the world experiences at least some of these changes. That shows that God is soon to do something. “The wicked spring up like grass and all evildoers flourish; they will be forever destroyed” (Psalm 92:7).

A good example: “Twelve months later, as the king was walking on the roof of the royal palace of Babylon, he said, ‘Is this not great Babylon I have built as the royal residence, by my might, power and for the glory of my majesty? The words were still on his lips when a voice came from heaven: “This is what is decreed for you, king Nebuchadnezzar. Your royal authority has been taken away from you…You will be driven away from people and will live with wild animals and you will eat grass like cattle. Seven times will pass by for you until you acknowledge that the Most High is sovereign over the kingdoms of men and gives them to anyone He wishes” (Daniel 4:29-32).

So be very wise you Christians because it says many are called but few are chosen. Every event comes at the time appointed by God. Do not be surprised by what is happening now, it was written before. You should love your God with all your heart.
