False Teachers and Natural Man

2 Timothy 3:1-7

¶ But know this, that in the last days grievous times will be upon us.

2 For men will be lovers of themselves, money-lovers, braggarts, arrogant, blas- phemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 without natural affections, unyielding, slanderers, without self-control, savage, haters of good,

4 betrayers, reckless, being puffed up, lov- ers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,

5 having a form of godliness, but denying the power of it; even turn away from these.

6 For of these are those creeping into houses and leading silly women captive, the ones having been heaped with sins, being led away by various lusts,

7 always learning, but never being able to come to a full knowledge of the truth.

2 Timothy 4:1-8

Therefore, I solemnly witness before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, He being about to judge the living and dead at His appearance and His kingdom:

2 preach the Word, stand by seasonably, unseasonably, convict, warn, encourage with all long-suffering and teaching.

3 For a time will be when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own lusts, they will heap up to them- selves teachers tickling the ear;

4 and they will turn away the ear from the truth and will be turned aside to myths.

5 But you be clear-minded in all, suffer hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fully carry out your ministry.

6 For I am already being poured out, and the time of my release is present.

7 I have fought the good fight. I have finished the course. I have kept the faith.

8 For the rest, the crown of righteousness is laid up for me, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me in that Day, and not only to me, but also to all the ones loving His appearance.
