lovers of money,
boastful, proud, have nothing to
do with such people
In my Bible today I read this admonition in 2 Timothy, Chapter 3 1-5.
But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days.
People will be lovers of themselves,
lovers of money,
boastful,
proud,
abusive,
disobedient to their parents,
ungrateful,
unholy,
without love,
unforgiving,
slanderous,
without self-control,
brutal,
not lovers of the good,
treacherous,
rash,
conceited,
lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God — having a form of godliness but denying its power.
Have nothing to do with such people.
That pretty much seems to take care of Congress.
Our elected officials.
Most anyone in the current news cycle, for that matter.
Puts me in mind of the type of people, and there didn’t seem to be any in the recorded history, who would have tried to steal the 1st Class dining room silver … on the Titanic.
As for those elected folks, we voted them in there.
How did Obi Wan put it?
“Who is more foolish? The fool or the fool who follows him?”
Come on everybody, time to grasp at straws and go attack the Death Star.
