In These Perilous Times



Romans 1:18-32

For The WRATH of GOD (GOD Almighty) is REVEALED from Heaven, AGAINST All Ungodliness and Unrighteousness of Men (Unbelievers), who SUPPRESS The Truth in Unrighteousness, because what may be KNOWN of GOD (GOD Almighty) is MANIFEST in Them (Unbelievers), for GOD (GOD Almighty) has SHOWN IT to Them (Unbelievers).  For since The CREATION of The World, His (GOD Almighty’s) INVISIBLE ATTRIBUTES ARE CLEARLY SEEN, Being UNDERSTOOD, by The THINGS, that are MADE, even His (GOD Almighty’s) ETERNAL POWER and GODHEAD (GOD Almighty, Jesus Christ, and The Holy Spirit), so that They (Unbelievers) are WITHOUT EXCUSE, because, although They (Unbelievers) KNEW GOD (GOD Almighty), They (Unbelievers) Did NOT GLORIFY Him (GOD Almighty), as GOD (GOD Almighty), NOR were THANKFUL, but became FUTILE in Their (Unbelievers) Thoughts, and Their (Unbelievers) Foolish Hearts were DARKENED. PROFESSING to be Wise, They (Unbelievers) BECAME Fools, and CHANGED The GLORY of The INCORRUPTIBLE GOD (GOD Almighty), into an IMAGE, made like Corruptible Man, and Birds and Four-Footed Animals and Creeping Things.

Therefore, GOD (GOD Almighty) also GAVE Them (Unbelievers) UP to Uncleanness, in The LUSTS of Their (Unbelievers) Hearts, to DISHONOR Their (Unbelievers) Bodies among Themselves (Unbelievers), who EXCHANGED The Truth of GOD (GOD Almighty), for The LIE, and Worshiped and Served The CREATURE, rather than The CREATOR (GOD Almighty), Who is BLESSED Forever. Amen.

For THIS REASON, GOD (GOD Almighty) GAVE Them (Unbelievers) Up to VILE Passions.  For even Their (Unbelievers) Women, EXCHANGED The NATURAL USE, for what is AGAINST NATURE.  Likewise also The Men (Unbelievers), LEAVING The NATURAL USE of The Woman, BURNED in Their (Unbelievers) LUST for One Another, Men (Unbelievers) with Men (Unbelievers) COMMITTING what is SHAMEFUL, and RECEIVING in Themselves (Unbelievers), The PENALTY of Their (Unbelievers) ERROR, which was DUE.

And even as They (Unbelievers) did NOT like to RETAIN GOD (GOD Almighty), in Their (Unbelievers) KNOWLEDGE, GOD (GOD Almighty) GAVE Them (Unbelievers) OVER to a DEBASED MIND, to do THOSE THINGS, which are NOT FITTING; being FILLED with All Unrighteousness, Sexual Immorality, Wickedness, Covetousness, Maliciousness; FULL of Envy, Murder, Strife, Deceit, Evil-Mindedness; They (Unbelievers) are Whisperers, Backbiters, HATERS of GOD (GOD Almighty), Violent, Proud, Boasters, INVENTORS of Evil Things, Disobedient to Parents, Undiscerning, Untrustworthy, Unloving, Unforgiving, Unmerciful; who, KNOWING The RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT of GOD (GOD Almighty), that Those (Unbelievers) who PRACTICE SUCH THINGS are DESERVING of DEATH, not ONLY DO The SAME, but also APPROVE of Those (Unbelievers) who PRACTICE Them (Such Things).

2 Timothy 3:1-9

But KNOW THIS, that in The LAST DAYS, PERILOUS TIMES will come: for Men (Unbelievers) will be LOVERS of Themselves (Unbelievers), Lovers of Money, Boasters, Proud, BLASPHEMERS, Disobedient to Parents, Unthankful, Unholy, Unloving, Unforgiving, Slanderers, Without Self-Control, Brutal, Despisers of GOOD, Traitors, Headstrong, Haughty, Lovers of Pleasure rather than LOVERS of GOD (GOD Almighty), having a Form of Godliness but DENYING ITS POWER.  And from SUCH PEOPLE, TURN AWAY!  For of THIS SORT are Those (Unbelievers) who CREEP into Households and MAKE CAPTIVES of Gullible Women LOADED DOWN with sins, LED AWAY by Various Lusts, Always LEARNING and NEVER able to COME to The KNOWLEDGE of The Truth.  Now, These (Unbelievers) also RESIST The Truth: Men of Corrupt Minds, DISAPPROVED Concerning The FAITH; but They (Unbelievers) will progress NO Further, for Their (Unbelievers) FOLLY will be MANIFEST to ALL.

2 Timothy 2:16-17a, 18, 24-26

But shun Profane and Idle Babblings, for They (Unbelievers) will increase to more Ungodliness.  And Their (Unbelievers) Message will SPREAD like CANCER, who have STRAYED, Concerning The Truth, saying that The Resurrection is already PAST; and They (Unbelievers) OVERTHROW The Faith of some.  But AVOID Foolish and Ignorant Disputes, KNOWING that They (Unbelievers) GENERATE STRIFE.  A SERVANT (Believers) of The LORD (Jesus Christ) MUST NOT QUARREL, but be GENTLE to All, able to TEACH, PATIENT, in HUMILITY, CORRECTING Those (Unbelievers) who are in OPPOSITION, IF GOD (GOD Almighty), perhaps will GRANT Them (Unbelievers) REPENTANCE, so that They (Unbelievers) may KNOW The Truth, and that They (Unbelievers) may COME to Their (Unbelievers) Senses and ESCAPE The SNARE of the devil, having been TAKEN CAPTIVE by him (the devil), to do his (the devil’s) will.

2 Peter 2:1-3

But there were also False Prophets (Unbelievers) among The People, even as there will be False Teachers (Unbelievers) among YOU (Believers), who will SECRETLY bring in DESTRUCTIVE HERESIES, even DENYING The LORD (Jesus Christ) who BOUGHT Them (Unbelievers), and bring on Themselves (Unbelievers) SWIFT DESTRUCTION. And many will FOLLOW Their (Unbelievers) Destructive Ways, because of whom (Unbelievers), The WAY of Truth will be BLASPHEMED.  By Covetousness, They (Unbelievers) will EXPLOIT YOU (Believers) with Deceptive Words; for a Long Time Their (Unbelievers) JUDGMENT has NOT been IDLE, and Their (Unbelievers) DESTRUCTION Does NOT SLUMBER.

2 Peter 2:4-11

For if GOD (GOD Almighty) did NOT SPARE the angels who sinned, but CAST Them (the angels who sinned) DOWN To HELL and DELIVERED Them (the angels who sinned) into CHAINS of Darkness, to be RESERVED for JUDGMENT; and did NOT SPARE The Ancient World, but SAVED Noah, One of Eight People, a Preacher of RIGHTEOUSNESS, BRINGING in The FLOOD on The World of The Ungodly (Unbelievers); and TURNING The Cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ASHES, CONDEMNED Them (Unbelievers) to DESTRUCTION, MAKING Them (Unbelievers) an EXAMPLE to Those (Unbelievers) who AFTERWARD would LIVE Ungodly; and DELIVERED RIGHTEOUS Lot, who was OPPRESSED by The Filthy Conduct of The Wicked (Unbelievers), for that RIGHTEOUS Man (LOT), DWELLING among Them (Unbelievers), TORMENTED His (Lot’s) RIGHTEOUS SOUL, from day to day by SEEING and HEARING Their (Unbelievers) Lawless Deeds, then The LORD (GOD Almighty) KNOWS how to DELIVER The GODLY (Believers) OUT of Temptations and to RESERVE The Unjust (Unbelievers) UNDER PUNISHMENT for The DAY of JUDGMENT, and ESPECIALLY Those (Unbelievers) who WALK according to The Flesh in The Lust of Uncleanness and DESPISE Authority.  They (Unbelievers) are Presumptuous, Self-Willed.  They (Unbelievers) are NOT afraid to speak evil of Dignitaries, whereas Angels (GOD Almighty’s Holy Angels), who are GREATER in POWER and MIGHT; do NOT bring a Reviling Accusation AGAINST Them (Dignitaries) BEFORE The LORD (GOD Almighty).

2 Peter 2:12-17

But These (Unbelievers), like Natural Brute Beasts MADE to be CAUGHT and DESTROYED, Speak Evil of The THINGS They (Unbelievers) do NOT understand, and will UTTERLY PERISH in Their (Unbelievers) Own CORRUPTION, and will RECEIVE The Wages of Unrighteousness (Death), as Those (Unbelievers) who count it pleasure to carouse in the daytime.  They (Unbelievers) are SPOTS and BLEMISHES, carousing in Their (Unbelievers) Own DECEPTIONS while They (Unbelievers) feast with YOU (Believers), having EYES Full of Adultery and that can NOT cease from sin, ENTICING Unstable Souls.  They (Unbelievers) have a HEART TRAINED in Covetous Practices, and are ACCURSED Children (of the devil).  They (Unbelievers) have FORSAKEN The RIGHT WAY and gone astray, following The Way of Balaam, The Son of Beor, who LOVED The Wages of Unrighteousness (Death); but He (Balaam) was REBUKED for His (Balaam’s) Iniquity: a dumb donkey SPEAKING with a Man’s Voice RESTRAINED The Madness of The Prophet (Balaam).  These (Unbelievers) are wells without water, clouds carried by a tempest, for whom (Unbelievers) is RESERVED The Blackness of Darkness, Forever.

1 John 2:18, 22-23

Little Children (Believers), it is The LAST HOUR; and as YOU (Believers) have HEARD that The Antichrist is COMING, even now Many Antichrists have come, by which We (Believers) KNOW that it is The LAST HOUR.  Who is a LIAR but He (Unbelievers) who DENIES that Jesus is The Christ?  He (Unbelievers) is antichrist, who DENIES The Father (GOD Almighty) AND The Son (Jesus Christ).  Whoever (Unbelievers) DENIES The Son (Jesus Christ), does NOT have The Father (GOD Almighty) either; He (Believers) Who ACKNOWLEDGES The Son (Jesus Christ), has The Father (GOD Almighty) also.

1 John 4:1-6

Beloved (Believers), do NOT believe every spirit, but TEST THE SPIRITS, whether They (The Spirits) are of GOD (GOD Almighty); because Many False Prophets (Unbelievers) have gone out into The World.  By This YOU (Believers) KNOW The Spirit of GOD (GOD Almighty): EVERY SPIRIT (Believers) that CONFESSED that Jesus Christ has COME in The Flesh is of GOD (GOD Almighty), and every spirit (Unbelievers) that does NOT confess that Jesus Christ has COME in The Flesh is NOT of GOD (GOD Almighty).  And THIS IS The Spirit of The Antichrist (Satan/Lucifer/the devil), which YOU (Believers) have HEARD was COMING, and is now ALREADY in The World.

YOU (Believers) are of GOD (GOD Almighty), and have OVERCOME Them (Unbelievers), because He (Jesus Christ) who is IN YOU (Believers) is GREATER, than He (Satan/Lucifer/the devil) who is in The World.  They (Unbelievers) are of The World. Therefore, They (Unbelievers) speak as of The World, and The World hears Them (Unbelievers).  We (Believers) are of GOD (GOD Almighty).  He (Believers) who KNOWS GOD (GOD Almighty) HEARS Us (Believers); He (Unbelievers) who is NOT of GOD (GOD Almighty) does NOT hear Us (Believers).  By THIS, We (Believers) KNOW The Spirit of Truth (Believers) and The Spirit of ERROR (Unbelievers).

2 John 1:7, 9-11

For Many DECEIVERS (Unbelievers) have gone out into The World, who do NOT CONFESS Jesus Christ as COMING in The Flesh.  This (Unbelievers) is a DECEIVER and an ANTICHRIST.  Whoever (Unbelievers) TRANSGRESSES and does NOT ABIDE in The DOCTRINE (The Gospel of Jesus Christ) of Christ (Jesus Christ), does NOT have GOD (GOD Almighty).  He (Believers) who ABIDES in The DOCTRINE (The Gospel of Jesus Christ) of Christ (Jesus Christ), has BOTH The Father (GOD Almighty) and The Son (Jesus Christ).

IF ANYONE (Unbelievers) comes to YOU (Believers) and does NOT bring THIS DOCTRINE (The Gospel of Jesus Christ), Do NOT RECEIVE Him (Unbelievers) into Your (Believers) House NOR GREET Him (Unbelievers); for He (Believers) who GREETS Him (Unbelievers) SHARES in His (Unbelievers) Evil Deeds.

Fellow Believers, did YOU (Believers) get a sense of “déjà vu”, as YOU (Believers) read These Scriptures?  Me too!  Jesus Christ’s Disciples are describing for Us (Believers), EXACTLY, what is happening in This World, Today!  It seems, minute by minute, even second by second, This World is getting further and further away from GOD Almighty.  This World is inching closer and closer to GOD Almighty SAYING, “ENOUGH!”  This World is inching closer and closer to The WRATH of GOD Almighty Being REVEALED from Heaven.  If someone tells YOU (Believers), The Holy Bible does NOT talk about Man’s Future, ask him/her to read These Scriptures ALOUD, and when he/she finishes, reply, “YOU were saying?”

Now, no one enjoys reading about Evil Deeds and Evil People, especially, if it may be describing Themselves (Unbelievers). I don’t want to be The Bearer of Bad News, but This World, Our World, is NOT going to get any better, period.  The Time to Turn it Around, has most definitely, PASSED.  Just as Noah had to admit to Himself (Noah), just as Lot had to admit to Himself (Lot), it IS Time, We (Believers) ADMIT This, Ourselves (Believers).

This does NOT mean, We (Believers) STOP Going About The Father’s (GOD Almighty’s) Business, in fact, it means We (Believers) MUST Step Up Our (Believers) Efforts, to Share The Gospel of Jesus Christ, with EVERYONE, whom GOD Almighty has PLACED Upon Their (Yet-To-Be-Believers) Hearts, to have “Ears to HEAR and Eyes to SEE, The Truth!”  Are YOU (Believers) with me?
