About the Series
Do we need God in today’s society?
As believers, we each answered that question according to our own religious experiences and theological beliefs.
Society proclaims that we don’t need God in today’s day and age, and therefore attempts to fashion its beliefs and morality apart from God, His influence, and His standards.
Recap
Society is opposed to God’s truth and has attempted to fashion facts according to its version of reality rather than fashion its reality to the facts.
Society has attempted to fashion its version of morality apart from God.
Society’s Choice
Paul reveals the type of individuals that society, in the last days, will establish as its leaders.
Why Follow These?
They condone society’s sinful behavior.
They encourage and enable sinful behavior.
They reject and stand against and form of godliness.
Characteristics of Society’s Leaders
Manipulative and Deceptive
The phrase “gullible women,” “silly women” in the KJV, refers to these leaders are targeting.
In the Greek culture of the 1st century, women didn’t attend school or university, and therefore they were considered less intelligent than men and often targeted for financial gain as well as social influence.
In today’s society, we would label such leaders as being “silver tongued devils.”
KJV uses the world “beguile” instead of “entice.”
Eve claimed the serpent beguiled her.
Every thought and argument that society tries to worm into our lives, we must weigh against the Word of God.
Society’s leaders are mere mortals, but God’s Word is eternal.
Depraved and Distorted Minds
Peter gives more insight to their depravity.
He describes them as lustful, greedy, and with no desire to change their sinful behavior.
Because of their depraved and distorted minds, they are hostile to the faith, i.e., they aren’t saved nor desired to be.
The church is just as susceptible to these ungodly leaders and therefore has to be wary of them because they try to worm their way into its leadership thus leading it astray.
These false teachers have wormed their way into the leadership of some churches and denominations.
