Good morning, Zane.
I need to get out the door in the next few minutes to get set up for milling a pile of logs that have been here for about a year—damaged and partially burnt from that horrific period of wildfires. The owners of these logs actually lost their home—and the lumber we will produce today is destined to replace some of what was burned up.
Blessings on your day. Love and prayers—Tua (Ray)
The Apostle Paul made this statement to young Timothy nearly 2000 years ago. I can’t say that I fully understand why Paul thought it was so important for Timothy, living in that time zone of history, to understand the spiritual and ideological climate of the end times when those times were yet so far away—unless that description was also relevant to Timothy’s day. Indeed it is/was. For that description of moral and spiritual depravity fits quite well the to-be-expected outcome of the NSN (NATURAL SIN NATURE) when left to itself without restraint.
My own judgment is that Paul nailed it!—insofar as defining conditions, qualities, and mindsets that would prevail in the END TIMES—which I have to believe are NOW. So, things are not FALLING APART as much as they are COMING TOGETHER in harmony and fulfillment of Biblical prophecy. Just keep you Biblical-awareness seatbelt fastened!
Without further commentary on my part, I want to simply cite the first 5 verses of this chapter—so that you can judge for yourself whether or not “the shoe fits.”
(2 Timothy 3:1-5, TPT).
