"This
know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come." 2
Timothy 3:1 |
Moral Degeneracy
Prophecy: "In the last days ... men shall be lovers of their
own selves, ... Without natural affection, ... incontinent, ... despisers
of those that are good, ... Having a form of godliness, but denying the
power thereof." 2 Timothy 3:1-5.
America is in the midst of a tremendous crisis. An epidemic
of pornography, crime, illegal drugs, and moral degeneracy
is threatening to overwhelm us. Suicide is becoming a popular
solution to human problems. Divorce rates are climbing wildly,
with nearly one marriage in two ending in the divorce court.
The current immoral generation--with its obsession with sex
and filth, with its increasing church membership but decreasing
true spirituality--is plain and positive fulfillment of God's
Word. For a real shock, see how many of the last-day sins
listed in 2 Timothy 3:1-5 you can find depicted in any issue
of your Sunday newspaper. Nothing short of the coming of
the Lord will stem the tide of evil that is now engulfing
the world.
