3 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive,disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people. I am so tired. I can't put up with all of this anymore, especially, people being lovers of money, boastful, conceited, proud, abusive, ungrateful and unholy. I am very tired of evil people. I am very tired of people who pretend to be Christians and are not. How much longer Lord? Somebody was incredibly cruel to me today. Any comfort would be appreciated. Count it all joy, for your rewards await. This is just God's way of giving us and revealing His heart. For we are instructed to love what God loves, and hate what God hates! He is mindful of our frames and He stores our tears. Our tears are a testimony against those who mistreat or abuse us in any way. He sees all, knows all and remembers all. Though He never remembers our sins once forgotten, He will remember those He has not forgotten! TR good morning Heidi. our Father in heaven knows all about it, what came out on the outside that you experienced and also He knows all about what did not show, the heart. either the sins of the person(s) involved will be covered by the payment of Jesus if they are believers, or else God is the one who judges and vengeance is His. Believers can lose reward or not gain reward, 1Cor 3:10-17 and it is possible for believers to be saved but be ashamed when they are before the Lord, 1 John 2:28 Even now, little children, abide in him. Then, when he appears, we will have confidence and will not turn away from him in shame when he comes. If its a believer who has hurt you, I encourage you to pray for them and commit them to the Lord. If its an unbeliever who was cruel, then do the same. This is all going to pass, Heidi. Psalm 25 has precious words of comfort time is ticking down until it is time, that day, when the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. First, the believers who have died will rise from their graves. Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. Then we will be with the Lord forever. much cooler than star trek beaming people up, and when the Lord does it, its for real. :prayer-hands: Good word Regina! TR
