Might I suggest your reading 2 Timothy 3. The entire chapter explains what is happening now and how God's Word is as relevant, living and breathing, as it was even before it was penned.

Thanks, that is a very appropriate passage. One thing that always stuck me as out of place when Paul is running down the list of behavior in the last days is "disobedient to parents". It seemed sort of trivial compared to the others, like Paul was describing a child refusing to eat his vegetables.

Now I get it. When have we ever seen kids demand that their genitals be mutilated in defiance of their parents wishes? Or secretly pretend they are a different gender when away from their parents? Or seek out bizarre sexual information and practices from adults behind their parents backs?

All the signs are there for those paying attention.

Truth! But Satan is the great deceiver and wants nothing more than to lead children away from their parents. We see the destruction of marriage, family, children, and church and on and on. If we don't stand up, who will? We should be praying that God's Holy Spirit would convict us to speak truth loudly everywhere we go, every single day.
