SPIRITUAL DANGERS
(II Timothy 3:1) “This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.”
According to Apostle Paul, We are all living in perilous times. We cannot deny the fact that there is always danger in every corner of our lives. We have fear because of what’s going on in every corner of our world. Even if you’re living in a so called wealthy environment and in a luxurious hotel, beautiful places and close to a military base or police station; we can still be in different kinds dangers such as physical and spiritual sickness, financial insolvent or accident and death. Although as God’s children we have His protection; we can be in the wrong side of the track which could lead to a very dangerous situation. Apostle Paul used the words, “…that in the last days perilous times shall come.” “The last days” covers from Paul’s day right on until the Lord comes in the air, the 7 years tribulation, until the day He comes to rule the earth for a thousand years. One of the dangers the pastors may encounter are the dangers of losing his passion for the lost souls, losing his passion to preach the Word of God, losing his passion and his tears as he stand in the pulpit. We lost our passion to touch and influence lives. We may just go with the flow and don’t even know it. Notice the consistent passion of Paul to the people during his times in (Acts 20:31) “Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.”
