Is this the world today?

Question

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.
6They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over weak-willed women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, 7always learning but never able to acknowledge the truth. 8Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these men oppose the truth—men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected. 9But they will not get very far because, as in the case of those men, their folly will be clear to everyone.

Answer 1

Pretty good description of what is happening now days.

Answer 2

Don't be so sure of that time frame.

Swedenborg said the new earth and the new heaven was established after the Nicean Creed dealt the final blow to the Catholic Church. This was at the start of the industrial revolution and probably the cause of the industrial revolution moving the world out of the Middle Ages. Since the protestant church borrowed the Nicean Creed without question, the protestants also split God into three people.

Thank goodness for the independent churches who know that the Lord is the only God of heaven.
