• 2 Tim 3:1-9 : 1 Know this also, that in the last days perilous times will come. 2 For people will be lovers of themselves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those who are good, 4 Traitors, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness but denying its power. From such turn away. 6 For of this sort are those who creep into households and lead captive gullible women loaded with sins, led away by various lusts, 7 Always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8 Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disqualified concerning the faith. 9 But they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifested to all, as theirs also was.
