For the time will come when people
will not put up with sound doctrine.
Instead, to suit their own desires,
they will gather around them a great number of teachers
to say what their itching ears want to hear.
2 Timothy 4:3 (NIV)
I see it, God, but I do not really want to see it. People have decided it is easier to chase after their own cravings than follow Your teachings. They add to Your Words. They mock them. And they alter them to please their desires. Wake them up, Lord. Wake me up if I have drifted away from sound doctrine! In Jesus’ powerful name I pray. Amen.
Questions for Pondering…
Why is it so easy to drift away from God’s holy precepts?
When have I drifted and how did it turn out?
