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 such them.
2 Timothy 3:1-5
In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus
will be persecuted,
while evil men and impostors will go from bad
to worse, deceiving and being deceived.
2 Timothy 3:12,13
