Since I retired June 30, 2018 I have spent a great deal of time reading current events and studying my Bible. It seems that we must be living in the last days mentioned in the Bible. 2 Timothy Chapter 3 talks about “perilous times.”
2 Timothy 3 King James Version (KJV)
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as their’s also was.
10 But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,
11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.
12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;
15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
Many people would have us to believe that those perilous times are coming sometime in the future. It is my firm belief that we are already experiencing the perilous times mentioned in this chapter and other places throughout the Bible.
It is my intention to identify things happening around us and tie them to Scripture references pertaining to these happenings.
Additionally, we’ll deal with many aspects of daily living to help us make it through these “perilous times.” Such topics will include, but are not limited to marriage, parenting, personal finance, education, local churches, the workplace, and daily living.

Jerry, this is needed sooo badly in these “perilous times” that we are now living in. I’m so glad God put this on your heart and I’m excited to read what’s ahead.
