“You should know this, Timothy, that in the last days there
will be very difficult times … These teachers oppose the truth …
They have depraved minds and a counterfeit faith.” (2 Timothy 3:1, 8)
“For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and
wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look
for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear.
They will reject the truth and chase after myths.” (2 Timothy 4:3-4)
“… some ungodly people have wormed their way into your churches,
saying that God’s marvelous grace allows us to live immoral lives” (Jude 4)
That can also compare with the last days of 1st century Jerusalem and the Temple.
Note Daniel 11, which I view as fulfilled in the 1st century North/South Jewish Wars:
Daniel 11 and the great North/Israel/Gentiles vs South/Judah War
Daniel 10:1
In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed to Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the thing was true, even
a great warfare<6635>
and he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision.
Dan 11:33
And
the teachers of the people give understanding to many;
and they have stumbled
by sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil -- days.
Dan 11:35
And
some of the teachers do stumble for refining by them, and for purifying, and for making white -- till the end of the time, for
it is yet for a time appointed.
Revelation 13:10 If any to-captivity into captivity is going away.
If any in sword to be killed, is binding him in sword to be killed.
Here is the endurance<5281> and the faith of the Saints [Luke 21:24]
