Pax domine bretheren,sympathiesers and others..
This verse hits me hard like pa pow, i don't wan't to be one of these people and i do see myself like this at times :( anyway here is the verse for topic and debate ( ike what is fierce and what is firm,and what is merciless and what is humble rebuke,like where is the line?)...

"Remember that there will be difficult times in the last days. People will be selfish,greedy,boastful and conceited; they will be insulting,disobedient to their parents,ungraetful,and irreligious; they will be unkind, maerciless,slanderers,violent,ad fierce; they will hate the good; they will be treachrous,reckless, and swollen with pride; they will love pleasure rather than God; they will hold to the outward form of our religioin, but reject it's real power. Keep away from such people. Some of them go into peoples houses and gain control over weak women who are burdened by the guilt of there sins and driven by all kinds of desires, women who are always trying to learn but who can never come to know the truth. As Jannes and Jambres where opposed to Moses, so also these people are opposed to the truth - people whose minds do not function and are failures in the faith. But they will not get very far, because everyone will see how stupid they are. That is just what happened to Jannes and Jambres. "

Me i'm to fierce, merciless and reckless at times. And sometimes i run to pleasure when the Lord remains hidden to the stupid delusions in my brain. :(

What sayeth ye all about this verse.?

Jesus is Lord

I dunno how it's a debate.

We're definatly living in a time of deep selfishness and it's hard to be away from people. You can stay away from some people who cause grave and deeply depraved sins. It's hard if you're related to them...but it's pretty clear cut. If it's something that can get you beaten in jail for, you're doing the wrong thing.

With others not so clear cut sin, it's tougher. I know a very good person who will be going to jail for a habitual sin. I know someone who faces a painful death in 2-4 years becuase they were too lazy to take the remedy. I know another who could die either very soon or very painfully beucause they can't face life and addiction.

I go to Mass even though I am faced with a homily so filled with error 1/2 the time I want to throw up on my own shoes.

And this seems to illude to adultry...it can also illude to other bad infuluences...like the TV or Computer, books or newspapers or videos CAN be. Not every man who enters a house is set on stealing the wife, but a wise wife will know. We must be wise.

I think it's a warning to be wary. We don't have the luxary of non believers to buy whatever anyone is selling. We must take care.
