2 Timothy 3:6 For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,

 

In the Third Chapter of Paul’s second letter to Timothy, we find a description of what the world will be like in the Last Days as well as a strict warning for the Body of Christ. 

 

Verses 1-5 give the description: But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,  having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!

 

In the very next verse, the Holy Spirit tells us how this evil will infiltrate and overtake the solid Christian population. For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,

 

The key words here are “who creep into households.” These are not people who just barge in through the front doors of our homes and churches and take us over by force. They creep in and slowly infiltrate by making captives of the weak and burdened among us. make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,

 

In the past, we have seen various cults succeed in this manner, but for the most part, the Body of Christ has been strong enough to remain dominant in America. However, today the picture is quite different, and the enemy is creeping into households and entire communities, and their motive is not good, but evil.

 

Christianity and the Spirit of Christ have been under attack from the day Jesus Christ was born. It is He they hate and wish to destroy, but we can stand on the Word of God that tells us Jesus will always remain and never be destroyed.  For He is the living God, And steadfast forever; His Kingdom is the one which shall not be destroyed, And His Dominion shall endure to the end. (Daniel 6:26)

 

Many false religions and cults have crept into America invading the Church and the American culture over the years but none have been like what we are witnessing currently with the Nation of Islam. Below is a statement made by Omar Ahmad, the co-founder of CAIR, Council on American-Islamic Relations. This statement was made during an interview in Fremont, California. The entire article and interview was published on July 4, 1998, in the San Ramon Valley Herald, a local newspaper in Contra Costa County, which is a suburb of the San Francisco Bay Area.

 

Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Qur’an should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth. One of the challenges is understanding the totality of Islam...everything we need to know is in the Qur’an. We don’t need to look somewhere else.

 

The change in the demographics in Fremont, CA, over the past twenty-seven years, since this article was published, is astounding. As in so many other communities in America, they have indeed “crept in” and are seeking to take over this area of our country.

 

I pray for eyes to be opened to the truth of what is happening in America and for Americans to turn back to Jesus Christ, who was the source of our foundation. 

 

Only Jesus Christ can……..turn the tide
