We’re not just living in perilous times—we’re watching hearts harden in real time. When self becomes the center, love grows cold. When godliness becomes a form, not a force, deception settles in like cement. Paul didn’t list these sins to inform us—but to warn us: don’t conform to them. In a world that loves pleasure more than God, true power is found in turning away from pretense and walking in truth. “Having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!” (2 Timothy 3:5)
