Having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof – God does nothing supernatural

Paul tells Timothy in his second letter what it will be like in the last days:

2 Tim 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times
shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous,
boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3
Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent,
fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady,
highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a
form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6
For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly
women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and
never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.


This passage describes what it will be like in the world in the last times even among those who claim God but never came to the knowledge of the truth to be saved. It is logical then that this is talking about those who have some form of religion. It also says that it occurs in the last days so it is only common sense that the end time religious organizations of the world would contain these faithless people. continued…

  1. Hi Don

    Great article, unfortunately my father has fallen into one of those christian categories because of failed operations on his stomach ulcers , he doesn’t pray anymore.
    Also i guess you were right about the pope and nature of the muslim people after benedicts comments, honestly ,the saying truth hurts must really be literal to these people.
    Recently i’m still growing spiritually i guess but i was investigating an article from a messianic jew about the coming of the end time realting to the year of Jubilee for the jews, i decided to read Levictus and see what the lord says about Jubilee and must admit i can only see half a merit in this claim, i’d like to know your opinion Don as i can see that the lord has truly given you wisdom in the field of apocalyptic prophesy

  2. Hopefully and prayerfully your dad will come around at some point.

    The sooner people wake up and understand that we are in a era of Islamic fascism the less pain they will be able to cause us. However, I do not see Western society waking up until the common people take these matters in their own hands by getting rid of the appeasers that run our governments.

    I think Jubilees could be very important in knowing God’s timing. Jesus announced the acceptable year of the Lord on the 30th Jubilee from the time that this sabbatical system of Jubilees began. Jesus most likely will come again just before the 70th Jubilee.

    The first and second temple were dedicated to the Lord on a Jubilee on the Feast of Tabernacles. I would not want to be dogmatic about the dating of when Jesus is coming but I would not discount that it will be before forty Jubilees since He made that announcement in 28 AD

  3. I agree Don

    I happen to know very sincere Muslim people but the fact of the matter is they are the ones dictating terms in the world at the moment, it’s quite sad as well
    when the Hezbollah war with Israel was happening some mindless people in Australia started vandalising a Jewish Rabbai’s home just for the fact they are Jewish

  4. It is the sincere Muslims that are the ones that are trying to take the world by force for Allah. Lets give them credit for knowing their scriptures.

    The Muslims who allegorize and explain away the teachings in their Quran might be called moderates by the West but they are not being true to the text and they are hated by sincere Muslems.

    Those that take the text literally are calling for jihad against all infidels because what they do is totally supported by teachings in the Quran and in their oral traditions.

    The sooner the West wakes up to the fact that there is no appeasing true Islam until the whole world converts to Allah with the Jews eliminated the better off it will be.

    Moderate Muslims is a contractions in terms. It is similar to saying Christians who do not believe the Bible.

    For world peace the majority of Muslims might eventually water down and censor their scriptures but then it would no longer be true Islam. It would just be another spoke on the wheel of the coming world religion of ecumenical harlotry
