What God Said About the Last Day: We Are There Now

God said that in the last days it would be as in the days of Noah.

How was it in the days of Noah?

1. Everyone did what was right in their own eyes and no one would listen to wisdom nor would they be reasonable. They would not be able to reason.

2. There were only a small handful of people who loved God.

3. The people had a "form of religion" but despised the One True God.

4. 2 Timothy 3 was a description of the mentality of mankind in the days of Noah, brutal and unloving.

5. No one on the face of the earth cared about anyone else on the face of the earth.

6. The people of the earth despised instruction.

7. Self was on the throne of everyone's heart, anyone who would challenge this was despised and mocked.

The attributes of the heart of the end times person looks like this.

2 Timothy 3:1-5 "3 But realize this, that in the last days perilous times will come. 2 For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, 4 treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 holding to a form of [b]godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these."

Are we living in the end of days: YES, everything God said would happen in the last days is being fulfilled right now.

Born again believers can see the breakdown of the family and the resistance to truth and righteousness as though many if not most people can no longer reason with clarity right from wrong.

"And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold" (Matt. 24:10-12).

The instruction from God for believers is that we are to avoid people who have the character of 2 Timothy 3:1-5. To avoid them entirely we would have to get out of the world but we are to avoid people with these characteristics who claim to be Christian. God says there will be those who pretend to be Christian having a "form of godliness" but are not born again . They deny God by their actions that prove whats in their heart.

If we want to walk with Christ we will be alone a lot as Noah and his family were alone.

"And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold" (Matt. 24:10-12).

"1 Then the LORD said to Noah, “Go into the ark, you and all your family, because I have found you righteous in this generation." Genesis 7:1

Proverbs 11:4
"Riches are worthless in the day of wrath, but righteousness brings deliverance from death."

It is not our own righteousness that spares us from God's wrath, it is the righteousness of Christ . He paid the price for our sin and we trusted in Him. this is the only way anyone can be counted righteous and saved from God's wrath and hell.
