2nd Timothy 3:1, “This know also, that in the LAST DAYS perilous times shall come and men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, high minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God.”

Philippians 3:18,19, “For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.”

1st Timothy 4:1-2, “Now the Spirit Word  speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron.” …

1 John 2:16, “For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.”

2nd Timothy 4:3-4, “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.”

Are  you living as a Christ centered servant or are you still self centered? All of the People that are self-centered are solely always absorbed only  in themselves. They really  have no room at all in their heart for God. Self-centered people also have no room for other persons. A self-centered person glories in him or herself, their own small circles of friends, family  and not in God or in . Self-centered people thus from birth still are always  are outside of God’s plan. Self-centered persons falsely trust in themselves more than God .God desires above all still that  for us to trust Him more than anything else in this world. The Bible tells us openly that the LAST DAYS  people will become selfish, self-centered and self-righteous. they have become sinfully proud, disobedient, unholy, unthankful, high minded, people who can see sin in others but not in their own life still. They too a rather are apostate,  corrupt counterfeit Christians.

Some or most people are just readers, not writers.. But   why do some other people do like to have solely the last word always, even  in a debate, argument or confrontation . Even after you have let them have the final say and you do not reply back yet they now are writing back to you.. Some people always do  feel a self centered  need be assertive, visible,  outspoken, and thus to have that “last word” while many others can simply  drop it.  Having the last word surely may seem to make any person FEEL better but it does not last as they are mostly still empty inside in their God shaped vacuum. 

Now next there are also  the very bad, abusive, toxic people who like nothing more than:
1. Getting their way, or;
2. Causing and continuing in a fight.


The bad, Abusive or Toxic people like to accuse, tantrum, manipulate and smear their way to either one of the above or the other. Their out-of-control emotions and self-centeredness make the blame game and the smear campaign two of their favorite tactics for keeping you engaged with them so they can feed off you. Arise, upset the toxic person, and they’ll be shooting infuriating lies, slanders, put down, name calling  your way and really now are just waiting for you to bite the hook. And they are hoping to next keep you tossing and turning at night, just trying to think of some way – any way – One good that that you can stop them once and for all and make sure the truth about who you are prevails is to kick them out of your life, delete them and their comments, or   expose them to all for what they really are.  They too serve the devil and not God. So when you find yourself invited into an ugly tug-of-war with a toxic person, don’t continue it forever.. Don’t lose sleep over it too..

True Christians are not mostly self centered as true   Love is Many Things, But It is Not Self-Centered. Love is not selfish, envious, nor prideful. Selfishness and true  love is a complete opposites and sin and love they cannot coexist at the same time. Envy will lust for things that it does not have. Love does not. Prideful people puff themselves up over others. Love does not.

As in  Mark 4:5-6 Other seeds fell on thin, rocky ground and quickly started growing but because the soil wasn’t very deep. (6)But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched and dried up, because they did not have enough roots. Mark 4:16-17 The seeds that fell on rocky ground are the people who gladly hear the message and accept it right away. (17) But they too don’t have any roots, and they don’t last very long. Their false care about having more of  the things of this world, riches  kills them and yet they professed to be Christians too. .

Malachi 2 17 Ye have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet ye say, Wherein have we wearied him? When ye say, Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and he delighteth in them; or, Where is the God of judgment?
Romans 2 9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;
Romans 3 12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one….
Ephesians 6 8 Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free.
Colossians 3 25 But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.
1 John 2 17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
1 John 3 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
Psalms 34:  18 The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. Psalms 51:  17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. Isaiah 57:  15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
Isaiah 66:  2 For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.
Psalms 127:  1 Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.
Matthew 25: 1    Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2    And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 3    They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: 4    But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5    While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. 6    And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. 7    Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. 8    And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. 9    But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. 10    And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. 11    Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. 12    But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. 13    Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh
.
Now there is a real serious reason the foolish virgins were clearly mentioned by Jesus Christ, yes those religious  foolish virgins who next had missed, the rapture and entrance to heaven. You see they are the pretend, church playing Christians that you encounter so often in churches, on the net.. They have never fully surrendered their life to God, for they are still mostly living their useless, void, self centered life, doing their own things, do have their own false agendas.. they are rather still crooked as Hell too. So that was why they next lost it all.
