How would you react?

2 Timothy 3: 1
But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty.

So I wonder how many people realize how difficult things could get and will get in the last days?
Is it possible that none of us can connect with true difficulty, because we don’t often experience it?

If someone were to tell you that by the end of the year, your retirement account would be gone, would that be difficult enough?
Let’s say that the government would withdraw the 501C3, from the church you attend, would that be difficult enough?

Another Bible translation uses the word, “terrible” times, and the KJV uses the word, “perilous”.
Regardless of what word you actually use, it doesn’t sound to me like it spells fun times.

When I first read this verse, it reminded me of the 10pm. late news.
Fear already looks like it’s settled on the nations of the world.

Don’t get me wrong, the Western world has experienced times of prosperity and peace.
Those times seem less and less, and are almost daily interrupted with times of stress.

Regardless of what word you use, it looks like planet earth is in for some chilling times.
The catch in all this, is determining the time it’s actually going to happen.

I wonder how many people in the world today, are ready for whatever difficulty that’s going to come?

I wonder how many churches are going to be in a place, to help those who experience the terrible times
