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 them."
“In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge; Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage-with great patience and careful instruction. For
the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry.” 2 Timothy 4:1-5 NIV.
With this being said, it is saddening to see how many followers of Oprah's "one world" religion are emerging, believing the lie that as long as you follow what you believe, you will gain eternal life. May our lives proclaim Christ's words that He is "
the way, truth, and life, and no one shall come to the Father except through Me."
Satan loves it. If he can convince them they are good and doing good things, then a gracious God would never deny someone who denied Him. This "New Earth" wave from Oprah is scarily close to the unified church in the end times. "Remember your spirit" people - don't you know? If you get in touch with your spirit, then maybe it's enough to cover our sin...or is it?
Persevere brothers and sisters in standing for the Truth that has set us free, cleansed us, and given us abundant life.
1 Corinthians 9:24 - "Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last; but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. Therefore I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize."
