1 Timothy 4
1But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons

2 Timothy 3
1But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. 2For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, slanderers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, 4treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5holding to a form of godliness although they have denied its power

John 16
1“These things I have spoken to you so that you will not be led into sin. 2They will ban you from the synagogue, yet an hour is coming for everyone who kills you to think that he is offering a service to God. 3These things they will do because they have not known the Father nor Me.

Matthew 24... smile

What a time to be alive! Hamas is backed by Iran, who is backed by Russia and China... All the major players are now in motion. Funny how a tiny country, smaller than the state of Massachusetts, surrounded by its enemies, full of the most persecuted people in history, survives despite all odds and demands the world's attention. It'll be interesting to see what happens when Israel starts drilling in the dead sea...
