It's Almost Over Brothers and Sisters

Someone once said to me, "It seems like you talk so much about chastising people, more than you do about praising them for good things.

My answer was: "Good things do not need correcting; they should just be normal, expected, and appreciated.

Bad things need continual correcting because the culture as a whole does not follow Jesus Christ. Someone has to do it, and most people will not, so I guess it will be me."

2 Timothy 3:1-5 "3 But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. 2 For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, slanderers, 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 godliness although they have denied its power; avoid such people as these"

Since most of the world rejects Jesus Christ, either by words or in the case of those who attend church, by deeds, lack of obedience while punishing those who speak the truth, we live in a negative world.

I notice that Christ followers are chastised for being negative, but those doing the negative are left alone and even coddled and protected.

In these last days, bad is called good and good is called bad on a massive scale, even in the gatherings that claim to be Christian. Those who speak the truth from the Bible are disparaged as though they did something mean or rude. While those who are rude and mean are shielded.

2 Peter 3:3-4 "Knowing this first of all, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own sinful desires. They will say, “Where is the promise of his coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things are continuing as they were from the beginning of creation.”

Remember this, brothers and sisters; soon we will be leaving this corrupted and vile world to attend the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, where everyone there will love Jesus Christ and support all that we stood for here on earth.

It is hard now at times, even though our joy and peace never leave us. And we know that existence here is very temporary. Our brothers and sisters all agree with God, and they are our family. Rejoice in this!!!! Hallelujah!!!
