The Scripture descirbes the times very accurately:
2 Timothy 3:1-5
3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
3:2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters,
proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3:3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers,
incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
3:4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers
of God;
3:5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from
such turn away.
So when in the two millennia that have passed since this was written was such NOT the case? (I myself am guilty of much of same, for all I struggle against it...)
