Godlessness
You must understand this, that in the last days distressing times will come. For
people will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, arrogant,
abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, inhuman, implacable,
slanderers, profligates, brutes, haters of good, treacherous, reckless, swollen
with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to the outward
form of godliness but denying its power. Avoid them! For among them are those
who make their way into households and captivate silly women, overwhelmed by
their sins and swayed by all kinds of desires, who are always being instructed
and can never arrive at a knowledge of the truth. As Jannes and Jambres
opposed Moses, so these people, of corrupt mind and counterfeit faith, also
oppose the truth. But they will not make much progress, because, as in the case
of those two men, their folly will become plain to everyone.
