2 Timothy 3:

1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

Birth Pains, It was part of God's plan of salvation that he would send his only begotten Son into the world to die for the sins of the world. He had to die and that death was carried out by people that thought they were right. The Father had to allow it to happen for our sakes. He was holy and sinless so death could not keep him. His resurrection brings new life to everyone who accepts him as Savoiur. Just as a woman has to go through the pain of childbirth to bring a new life into the world. God allowed an impossibility to happen, his Son who is life had to die, that is a mystery that we can't understand now.


Those same birth pains are starting in the world today, the world is groaning and travailing wanting to give new life. The pressure is on everyone, it is on Christians to keep the faith and stand firm for their Lord. The pressure is on the lost to try to get rid of the problem as they see it, just as it was before the crucifixion of our Lord. This time it is his people that is the problem, the lost just wants the problem gone so they can live in what they think is peace. Jesus said in one place, Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
The sword of the Lord will divide you from you former friends, all you that are saved know this is true.
There will be no lasting peace on this fallen earth, not to the Saved for this is not our home, our peace is in our Lord, not to the lost, for there is no lasting peace without the Prince of Peace the Lord Jesus.
