1 You can be certain that in the last days there will be some very hard times.
2 People will love only themselves and money. They will be proud, stuck-up, rude, and disobedient to their parents. They will also be ungrateful, godless,
3 heartless, and hateful. Their words will be cruel, and they will have no self-control or pity. These people will hate everything good.
4 They will be sneaky, reckless, and puffed up with pride. Instead of loving God, they will love pleasure.
5 Even though they will make a show of being religious, their religion won't be real. Don't have anything to do with such people.
6 Some men fool whole families, just to get power over those women who are slaves of sin and are controlled by all sorts of desires.
7 These women always want to learn something new, but they never can discover the truth.
