The End is Near II

The chart in my Bible- 'The Last Days of Preparation' has 8 categories of things that need to happen before the rapture occurs:

  1. Increase of false prophets and religious compromise within the church.
  2. Increase of crime and disregard of God's law.
  3. Increase of wars , famines and earthquakes.
  4. Decrease in love and family affection.
  5. More severe persecution of God's people.
  6. Those who stand firm will be saved.
  7. Gospel will be preached to the whole world.
  8. The Spirit will be poured out on God's people.
How many of these have been occurring or have happened?
2Timothy 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 them'
I will give a longer list of Scriptures in another post. I just have had this one on my heart for a while now.
