The bible speaks about love waxing cold, has anyone else seen this? I have.
Mat 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
Mat 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
Mat 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

Pro 30:11 There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother.
Pro 30:12 There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness.
Pro 30:13 There is a generation, O how lofty are their eyes! and their eyelids are lifted up.
Pro 30:14 There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.

The last generation before Jesus takes over the earth, which they will devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men, which they will be obsessed with money and heaping it to themselves all in an attempt to be selfish, and greedy, and to exalt themselves.

Which this could never happen before technology for technology caused money, and material things to flow like a raging river so they heaped it to themselves for that is the way of the world, and people could reach out to more people to make money.

Which the last generation kicked up the selfishness, and self exaltation of people to a level never seen before, and millions of dollars, and billions of dollars is not good enough for them.

Which people will not like each other in an atmosphere like that which the attitude becomes people basically care about themselves with little regard for anybody else, so you do not care about me, I do not care about you.

And then the attitude is get all you can get and forget everyone else as they scurry about catering to their fleshy lusts, and self exaltation.

This affects relationships with marriage, friends, and family, and trust goes down.

John 666

6:66 From that [time] many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
6:67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?
6:68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.
6:69 And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.

Every day that passes is one day closer. I don't think the Word offers any hope for the world around us to get any better until that great and wonderful manifestation of the Millennium.

Just for the record....chapter and verses were added by men which you know.....starting with John 6:66 really means nothing at the end of the day....the book of John is ONE LETTER ;)

Yes.....a sign of the times.....also without NATURAL AFFECTION which accurately describes the love a mother would have for a child.....we can see real love waning all over the world and one thing that seems to get overlooked.....God will delude those that have no LOVE OF THE TRUTH....men inherantly love darkness and will not come to the light lest their deeds be reproved.......I love the truth, fail it oftentimes, but love it nonetheless.....and I remember that it was a process of growth and maturity which led me to wake up one day realizing that I love the truth!

The original holy scriptures used by th e fisdrst believers of Jesus, Yeshua, did not even have separation of sentences, no caps and no punctuation……………….

I do not think human nature has really changed. Things do seem to be escalating, though.



Ezekiel-36:25-26:)

Amen. Things went to pot fairly early on. Must keep each other sharp and ready, though. That day is ever approaching, never receding.
