That is true, but it is also true that Paul's words to Timothy were a warning as to the severity of the conditions: as the time drew near for the Lord's return these conditions would intensify.

I have seen a serious and sharp change in society in my days, a change that probably no other generation has seen since the days of Sodom and Gomorrah. You need look no further than TV to see the differences in acceptable behavior in our land today. In my early days of watching TV, you wouldn't see a husband and wife in bed together, let alone an unmarried couple. Now you see everything from simulated hetero to implied homo sex during daytime and primetime!

Keep an eye on the sky!
