Many has been the events that prove we are in the end times. We can already see this with the increase about hunger, disease, climate change increasingly more frequent and also with the human being that far from God. And that's exactly what Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter twenty-four.
See what he said nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places all this will be the onset of pain. Then they are to be persecuted and condemned to death and you will be hated by all nations for my sake.
At that time many will be scandalize, betray and hate each other and numerous false prophets will arise and deceive many. Due to the increase of wickedness the love of many will grow cold. Realize that evil is a of the things Jesus said would increase in the world just before your return and it's exactly that's happening, isn't it?
Or do you think that the lack of love of neighbor has grown by chance? Of course not and who confirms this to us is the apostle Paul, let's read what he wrote in his second letter to Timothy. Know this, in the last days terrible times will come.
Men will be selfish, greedy, conceited, arrogant, blasphemous, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, ungodly, with no love for the irreconcilable, slanderous, without domination himself returns , cruel, enemies of good, traitors, rash, haughty, more lovers of pleasure than friends of God, semblance of pity, but denying its power. We we're living in the last days and that's exactly what I I want to prove you in today's video showing you the seven sins that are ruling the world before Jesus you to watch and not practice them, OK? But before get started, I want to ask you to subscribe here to my channel, just click the button below the video, sign up and next to it will appear a little bell, clicks that bell for you to be warned whenever I put a new video, okay?
So let's get started. The sin first, selfishness. The first sin pointed out by Apostle Paul, second Timothy is selfishness.
And if you feel like analyze it well and this is already happening with great force. Just a look at social networks to see that being human saint is full of himself boasting what conquered by not worrying about others and things of God. Selfishness is one of the worst spiritual illnesses this century because kills the essence of man and drives him away from it.
lord. It goes against the main commandments of Jesus that to love God with all your heart and your neighbor as yourself, . And unfortunately selfishness is taking over the world but let's we can't settle for it, we must follow the steps of Christ who came to serve and give his life to favor of the people and you are willing to give up your doing the Lord's will?
Think about it. second sin, greed. The second sin that the arrogant apostle Paulo brings in his letter it is greed that is nothing more than love of money and at another time the apostle Paul said the love of money is the root of all evil.
Some people for lusting after the money turned away from the faith and themselves themselves with many sufferings. Have you ever stopped to think about the amount of crimes that are committed in the world every day because of money? They are frauds, thefts, murders, wars, families are destroyed and dreams are interrupted because of the love of money, but you see, problem is not the money itself, it actually is a God in our lives so that we can sustain and the helping those most in need.
The problem is attachment to things materials and this verse we just read says many love money and were plagued with too much suffering and that's exactly what has happened in the days when they today many rich people with a lot of financial conditions have been in depression had panic anxiety attacks all because he cause the desire to always want to have more so my dear brother and sister, be very careful because people put money first they stop looking for the are totally turned away from the faith. The third sin is immorality. Lack of holiness is a sin that has dominated the world all over these last days before Jesus returns and on top of that n't even need to talk much, right?
Just a look at television or on social networks to come across scenes full of sensuality and sexuality. Today there are apps that people paying for sensual photos and videos and the desire to gaining more men and women expose their bodies to strangers without any concern, not to mention the sites aimed at people who want to commit adultery and know or what is worse? All of this is considered supernormal but immorality is an offense to God because the lord is let's not see what the Bible says flee from sexual immorality all the other sins that someone commits out of the body but whoever sexually sins against their own does body.
Don't you know that your body is a sanctuary to Holy Spirit that dwells in you that was given to you by godsend and that you are not your own. You were bought at a high price. Therefore, glorify God with the body of .
Brothers, if we want to live with Christ and reign with him forever we need to repent of our sins and seek a life of holiness. That's why the immoral and live for the glory of God. The fourth sin to blasphemy, this is the most serious sin that a person can commit and unfortunately we see it happen your time all in the novels, in the movies, in the series, in the songs and also do on the internet.
See what Jesus said. I tell you, all to sin and blasphemy will be forgiven to men, but blasphemy against the spirit will not be forgiven. Everyone who a word against the son of man will be forgiven, but whoever speaking against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven even in this age not even in the age to come.
Is blaspheming speaking ill, cursing, the offend, invent lies and we know that Pharisees did all the time against Jesus, but the very Christ said that even that could be forgiven, the great danger was blaspheme against the Holy Spirit, do you know why? Because the Holy Spirit is to convince men of sin and bring you to repentance and to be saved one needs repentance of your sins, therefore, whoever blasphemes against Holy Spirit is ignoring the only one who can convince you of leaving sin to receive forgiveness and maybe you're then wondering if at some point I committed to blasphemy against the Holy Spirit? My brother if you are repent then you did not blaspheme against the Spirit who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit does not feel bad and guilty and does not intend to change his life Jesus made it clear that he never reject anyone who comes to him so he confesses his sin and it will you receive forgiveness amen?
The fifth sin self-indulgence who is does not like to be in the comfort zone, right? We we like things to go the way they are and one of the main signs that we are complacent is when they don't making decisions or responsibilities that may causes us some kind of discomfort, but why does this would be a sin? Because it is impossible for you to fulfill the call of God and take his word to the people without leaving their comfort zone.
The apostle Paul said that the gospel is the power of God for salvation, or be able to transform people's lives and restore families. But when you are accommodated to the instead of feeling the desire to share God's love you are satisfied with simply attending church and feel that you have fulfilled your role as a Christian and in these last times the distractions and entertainment are increase much. Do people spend hours, days and weeks watch TV series listening to music , playing enjoying with friends and they don't even realize that Jesus can come back at any time, so the best way to overcome the sin of self-indulgence is fighting their flesh and you unite with people who have walked with God, amen?
See what the Bible says, think about it, who knows that they should do good and not , commit sin the sixth sin arrogance, the video game person is the one who thinks he is better than the others and have the slightest interest in hearing other opinions because she thinks you are always right, your vanity is greater than any something else including their love for God and this is more a sin that has dominated the world isn't it? For one, minute and reflect how many people you know that if consider smarter, smarter and even more spiritual than others. Little do they know that arrogance only makes them destruction and separation from God because the Bible says that God oppose the proud but give grace to the humble?
So brothers we must never be arrogant because Jesus is about to return and only those who have humility, to recognize that they are nothing without his and mercy is that will be saved because Christ only saves those who repent of their sins and believe in him as only savior amen? Does the seventh sin ingratitude the Bible says that man has a heart deceitful and corrupt by nature and ingratitude as a consequence of it, it is nothing more than the lack of recognition for those who did good to him and is honest how many times have you thanked God for something today? And how many times have you said thank you to the last one?
When a person becomes ungrateful it's just a matter of time for her to forget who made her conquer everything she has and who they are and today unfortunately we have seen them many people like that they receive gifts and talents are blessed with health, peace, material goods and yet not recognize the hand of God and do not thank him for everything they receiving and that's what happened to Jesus when he cured ten lepers. The Bible says that only one came back from that group to thank him and the Christ himself God's was surprised by the other nine's lack of gratitude. Remembering that this man who thanked was not even a Jew.
He never part of a people considered inferior and knows how to does this teach us? That the people who were saved for Jesus can fall into the same error of not recognizing the love and mercy for getting used to it, for so my brother remember every day the great work that what you have done a lot in your life and thank you very much, amen? Brethren, these are the seven sins that have prevailed in the days today, of course there are several others, but the one I I want to tell you is that Jesus is about to return, soon the trumpet will blow and the savior of the world will come for destroy the antichrist, the false prophet and their leader Satan.
us stand before this? Let's get the Lord while is time or we will continue to live as if Jesus was would you come back? Is the choice all yours?
So don't let none of these seven sins dominate your heart, amen? I 'm Pastor Antônio Júnior if you liked this message, share it with your friends and family and subscribe here in my channel God bless you.
