2 Timothy 3:1-9

Mark my word: there will be terrible times in the last days. For people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, and to them nothing will be sacred. They will be without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, cruel, and have no interest in what is good. They will be traitors, reckless, conceited, and love pleasure more than GOD. They will pretend to be godly, but deny its power. You must have nothing to do with them. Among them are those who worm their way into homes to win the confidence of gullible women loaded down with sin and led astray by various evil desires. They chase after the latest religious fad, and never understand the truth. Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these men oppose the truth. Their minds are depraved, and their faith is counterfeit. But they will not get away with this for long, for their foolishness will become clear to everyone.
