basis in prophecy explaining the exacerbation in hostility/hate/rage of people towards each other in the "end days"? [This is NOT a "yes/no" question.]

2006-07-11 08:50:36 · 21 answers · asked by Kiss my Putt! 7 in Society & Culture Religion & Spirituality

the reason why I posed the question [& I have Swordsearcher] is because I have been answering questions quickly lately trying to make up for lost time while my pc was down & I didn't have time to look it up and every so often someone will pose the question as to why people are so rude these days....I knew of the passage, but just not where to look & I wanted to be able to tell these people when they ask this where to find it in Scripture....Cindy, you proved the point that people are indeed getting meaner...if you call yourself a Christian, I hope you do some soul searching....I don't think God would've had you answer in such a nasty tone.

Perhaps these are the Scriptures you are referring to.

2 Tim.3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

2 Tim.3:2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

2 Tim.3:2 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

2 Tim.3:4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

2 Tim.3:5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

2 Tim.3:6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,

2 Tim.3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

No problem:

2 Timothy 3:1-5, 13
Matthew 24:9-14

I would have quoted the scriptures, but it is more powerful to read them in your own copy of the Bible. The scriptures that I quoted deal directly with the attitude of the general people during the end times.

Yes and these are just a few, in order to understand some of them you may need a concordance or another way to find the Hebrew or Aramaic meaning of some words since king james had an agenda in writing his version, some things don't make sense purposely.
Matt 24:3-14
Isa. 59:15
Dan. 12:1
1Thess. 5:2-7
Rev. 9:13-21
I hope this helps if not hit me back I have been studying religions for 9 years and Hebrew script

alot of the scriptures listed above are very good and all point to a major worldwide deception that will even test the limits of the very devout Christians. Personally i think the scriptures foretelling of the "antichrist" imply that there will be incredible hostility and war going on in the world because of the different religeons leading up to the antichrist...this then ushers him into power as the unifier of religeons and a peacemaker. then, as i understand it anyone that doesnt buy into this "new" religeon will be persecuted and labeled a "terrorist" or "enemy combatant" or whatever else they come up with....an "enemy of the new world order"....

2 Timothy 3:2, 3 says:“Men will be . . . without self-control, fierce,” and Matthew 24:12 says: “because of the increasing of lawlessness the love of the greater number will cool off.”

The Greek word translated “fierce” means, among other things, “lacking human sympathy and feeling.” Today ever younger children are showing themselves to be “fierce” and are committing increasingly violent crimes.

You might enkoy reading about other reasons how we know we are living in the last days:

"You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places." Matthew 24:5-7

Here you go,


2 Timothy 3
Godlessness in the Last Days
1But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them.

God bless!

There are no valid prophecies in the bible.

If the "end times" occurred, they occurred in the 1st Century, so your question is based on a false assumption.
