Perilous Times are Here: Fierce People
The fierceness of their demeanor and attacks on innocent people speaks to the fact that they are literally the fulfillment of Paul’s words to Timothy. These fierce individuals are literally haters of good and those who attempt to do good.
Perilous Times are Here: Covetous People
Christians have a responsibility and our responsibility is to God. In short, Christians have one job in spite of what is happening in society at any point in time. Our job is to preach Christ and Him crucified! The only real healing and justice that can happen in society is when it happens with one person at a time and that is only through Christ and the salvation that only He provides! There is NO other way and this is why in society there are many checks and balances with lower courts to higher courts to eventually the Supreme Court. Even there, true justice might not occur, but it has a far better chance of happening than if there was only one court and one group of judges.

Perilous Times are Here
It is remarkable that today, people in Congress can actually speak in favor of socialism (which simply leads to Communism), and few take them to task over it. It is becoming the accepted mark of anyone who wants to appear to be “courageous” or “woke.” But what does Marxism actually stand for and is there a chance that it has taken over major aspects of American society? It would seem so but in order to make an accurate assessment, it would be helpful to look at some of the main goals of Marxism. Are those goals helping to create the “perilous times” that Paul spoke of almost 2,000 years ago?
Lawlessness: the Vehicle Ushering in Final Empire
As lawlessness increases, we know that things are building to a new order, the final empire. The goal of lawlessness is not simply to be lawless. The goal is to overturn and overrule. It puts so much internal pressure on the current system that something has to give. That something is usually the system itself, which is replaced with something else.
Revolutionary Abolitionist Movement
Notice what Paul says. He warns the way the average person will be during these last days. It’s not a pretty picture and we are seeing it throughout many areas of the USA. People are being absolutely vicious. I watched a video of a man trying to help an older man who was carrying the American flag. The rioters were already trying to harm the older man when the younger man came to his aid. The crowd of rioters immediately turned on the younger man and went after him. He tripped and hit his head on the pavement and went unconscious. Immediately, a young male hauled off and kicked him in the head as he lay in the street. I learned later the man died. This has happened repeatedly throughout the USA in many cities. Just look at Paul’s description of people! They are acting more like demons than people. They are blood thirsty and completely centered on what they want. Hate fills their hearts.
Mystery of Iniquity Increases
I trust the Bible. I believe the mystery of iniquity is growing exponentially and will ultimately birth the final global empire first spoken of in Daniel 2. That empire will be led by the “man of sin” – the Antichrist. His intent will not be to rule the world just for the sake of ruling it. His intent is clearly defined the book of Revelation (and in numerous other portions of Scripture), where he will ultimately gather the earth’s armed forces in a last ditch attempt to keep Jesus Christ from returning to this earth as Victor and King of Kings. Can you believe the unmitigated gall of believing that?
Esther: God’s Plan Unfolds
Queen Esther is essentially asking that her life and the life of her people be spared. She’s beginning to unravel to the king the plan that had put into place to destroy all Jews. Notice she says that if the plan had simply been to enslave her and her people (“we”), she would not have said anything. However, the plan to literally annihilate all Jews was too much and she had to say something.
