2 Timothy 2:1-4 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
"Be faithful to God, be strong in the grace of God!" Commit what you've learned to faithful men that will be able to teach others. "Endure hardness, as a good soldier!" Fight the good fight of faith! Contend for the faith that was once delivered unto the saints! Don't waver, don't compromise the Word of God for anything or anybody! "Be faithful to God!" Don't be mixed up with the world and try to be a soldier of the Cross of Christ!
2Timothy 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.
We are living in the last days! Perilous times are upon us! Self rules!
LOVERS OF THEIR OWN SELVES!
Out of control desires.
2Timothy 3:12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
3:13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
3:14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;
3:15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
3:17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
Those that make up their minds that they are going to live according to Gods Word will suffer a great onslaught of persecution. The world will hate you if you follow the Lord with your whole heart. But remember, God will be with you!
"This world only wants a form of religion rather than the power of God."
Perilous times requires fearless preachers that know that "all scripture is given by inspiration of God!"
The Word is profitable for doctrine.for evidence that will correct those off course!
The Word is profitable for instruction in right living!
"Preacher, you must to determined to preach this Word of God without any compromise!"
You will be hated, but you will be pleasing God and His kingdom will advance forward in these perilous last days!
2Timothy 4:1 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
4:5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.
"I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ!"
Preach the Word! Preach the Word!
Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might! Be instant in season, out of season!
Be ready always to give an answer to any one that ask you of the hope that is within you with meekness and fear!
For the time will come when they will heap to themselves teachers to themselves, having itching ears! Churches are full of people and leaders who are like this!
They shall turn their ears away from the truth! But continue in the things which you have learned!
"But you watch, be sober, don't allow yourself to be overcharged with the things of this world!"
Endure afflictions! Be determined that you will be faithful to proclaim Gods Word!
Do the work of an evangelist.
Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel!
Don't try be politically correct, just preach the Word!
Romans 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
1:19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
1:21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
1:23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
1:29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
1:30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
1:31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
Faithful servants of the Lord Jesus Christ will preach the scripture from Romans without fear or reservation in these last days!
These sins in the above verses of the Bible from the book of Romans will damn souls to hell.
They aren't alternate lifestyles!!! They are sins that if not repented of will send the individuals into everlasting punishment!
A person may say they have the right to live as they please and God gives everybody a free will to do as they please
"But there are consequences!"
. If you practice the sins of Romans chapter 1 you will die lost and then spend eternity in literal burning hell.
But the good news is that God so loved you while you were in your sin that He sent His Son Jesus Christ to die on the Cross that you could be delivered and saved!
God raised Christ from the dead and He's alive!
There's no other name given among men whereby we must be saved!
Jesus Christ is the ONLY WAY!
All other religions other than the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost who is the GOD OF THE BIBLE will have to bowed the knee to Christ and every tongue will confess that He is Lord to the glory of the Father or they will be separated from God forever.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Perilous times requires courageous preachers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ!
There is Hope in the last days.......................Jesus Christ.
Believe in Him!
