I believe we are at the end of time.. we see the the fulfillment of scriptural parables that warned us of what would happen to the church .. The wolves are more than at the door, they stand in places of church honor and teach those with itching ears.

Do any of you listen to fighting for the faith? Chris plays the sermons of these people and they are self centered and self serving ..they really believe the bible is all about them

Hey! How are you doing?

Long time, no see.

I believe we are at the end of time..

A lot of people have always believed that we're in the end times including the Apostle Paul. But I think there is ample evidence that we are now at the end of all things. The parallels between Christianity and Israel are interesting. Israel/Judah really only survived for a little more than 2,200 years. And there are stark parallels between now and the times of Jeremiah.

Jer 36:5-7 And Jeremiah ordered Baruch, saying, "I am banned from going to the house of the LORD, so you are to go, and on a day of fasting in the hearing of all the people in the LORD's house you shall read the words of the LORD from the scroll that you have written at my dictation. You shall read them also in the hearing of all the men of Judah who come out of their cities. It may be that their plea for mercy will come before the LORD, and that every one will turn from his evil way, for great is the anger and wrath that the LORD has pronounced against this people."

At the end, they wouldn't even allow Jeremiah in the temple. On the day of fasting-when people were suppose to be turning to God. They didn't want to hear God's message that the people needed to turn from their evil ways. Instead they taught everything was well and that God loved them believing more in themselves than in the power of God. And they condemned Jeremiah for saying differently.

There isn't much difference in messages these days. No one sees their sins. No one understand their offense to God. We live in a world where many do not believe and those who say they believe preach a false message of love and tolerance.

God loves us. He will protect and defend us. This was the message of those who were preaching in the temple in the days of Jeremiah. It was not a message of repentance. It was not a message of inward reflection about the sorry sinful state of our souls as John the Baptist would preach many years later. It is the same message taught today. If one brings up sin they are condemned just like Jeremiah.

2Ch 36:15-16 The LORD, the God of their fathers, sent persistently to them by his messengers, because he had compassion on his people and on his dwelling place. But they kept mocking the messengers of God, despising his words and scoffing at his prophets, until the wrath of the LORD rose against his people, until there was no remedy.

Indeed, people have itching ears.
