INTRODUCTION:
Jesus

warning about the last days

2 Timothy 3:1-5
But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last
days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of
money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their
parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving,
slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the
good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure
rather than lovers of God--having a form of godliness but
denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.
