“[Without natural affection], [truce-breakers], [false accusers], [incontinent], fierce, [despisers of those that are good].” Commentary: There are many more signs listed in Chapter three but we will cover the five words or phrases listed in this verse taken from the Greek language. Biblical principles are absorbed in small dosages best! Even if you eat an elephant it is just one bite at a time! That is why we study and read our Bible everyday! We pray everyday! We attend church at least once a week! We already covered “without natural affection” in an earlier post. Meaning no family love! Divorce, gay marriage, homosexuality, lesbianism, transgenderism, racism, gender neutrality are all attacks on the family! The next words “truce-breakers” describes the spirit in a person that rejects any terms of reconciliation! He is at war with God and man and is irreconcilable! He refuses to give up his enmity! He cannot forgive! He rejects God’s Salvation! Refuses to be reconciled to the Father through his Son for his sin! The next words “false accuser’ is where we get our English word devil! Satan is the accuser of the brethren! Satan told Eve in the Garden of Eden that God is a liar! Some today still believe the lie! The next word is “incontinent”. It means without self control! Tom Brady advised his team mates who have never been to a Super Bowl before that you must control your emotions! Otherwise we will get penalties that will defeat us! If self control ruled people there would be no crime! God tempers our emotions with control! The last words in this scripture is “despisers of those that are good”. This describes people who will sacrifice people even their own family for personal gain! They will sacrifice their nation for personal gain! Bribes by politicians from foreign governments! Godly people sacrifice themselves for other people! For their nation! God’s Kingdom is a sacrificial Kingdom! He sacrificed his Son for our sin! We sacrifice for others with the same love of God and what he has done for us! God’s Kingdom and Satan’s Kingdom are opposites of each other! James & Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
