ARE YOU MISBEHAVING?

I heard a sermon Sunday about,"The 

Last Days.”The pastor said that he 

would be talking about how things 

will be right before Jesus returns. 

I assumed he would be telling  me 

about dark days of gloom and doom.

He surprised me. He said that there
would signs of  moral decay in our

society. I was inspired to investigate 

this concept for myself.

My Bible study lead me to scriptures

which clearly describe people's actions when Jesus' return was near.

Here are some of the scriptures:

LIFE LESSON:

BEHAVIOR OF PEOPLE IN LAST DAYS

 

2 TIMOTHY 3:1-9

1 But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come:

2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents,

unthankful, unholy,

3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control,brutal, despisers 

of good,

4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers 

of pleasure rather than lovers of God,

5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! 

6 For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,

7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

8 Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved

concerning the faith;

9 but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, as theirs also was.

 

JAMES 5:1-6

1 Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you!

2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten.

3 Your gold and silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have heaped up treasure in the last days.

4 Indeed the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the

reapers have reached the ears of the 

Lord of Sabaoth.

5 You have lived on the earth in pleasure and luxury; you have fattened your hearts as  in a day of slaughter.

6 You have condemned, you have murdered the just; he does not resist you.

 2 PETER 3 1-5, 7

1 Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder),

2 That you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us,

the apostles of the Lord and Savior.

3 Knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days,walking according 

to their own lusts.

4 And saying, “Where the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep,

all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.”

5 For this they willfully forget: that by 

the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and

in the water.

7 But the heavens and the earth which 

are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment

and perdition of ungodly men.
