2 Timothy 3
Godlessness in the Last Days
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.
They are the kind
who worm their way into homes
and gain control over weak-willed women,
who are loaded down with sins
and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires,
always learning
but never able to acknowledge the truth.
Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses,
so also these men oppose the truth...
men of depraved minds,
who, as far as the faith is concerned,
are rejected.
But they will not get very far
because,
as in the case of those men,
their folly will be clear to everyone.
