The End Times are Coming! The End Times are Coming!

How many times have we heard this song and dance before?

As the last days are upon us, those verses should be a call to all who hear them, and to take heed the calling that the Lord has laid upon each ones' heart, the Bible speaks of these last days in 1 Timothy 4:1-5 - 'Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving; for it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.'

As those verses give us a sense of, and the signs for the last days, as Christians, here are some of the things we should take care to acknowledge in these last times; regarding our steadfast approach, found in the First Epistle of John 2:15-17, Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world--the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life--is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.
