1. Remember that there will be difficult times in the last days.
2. People will be selfish, greedy, boastful, and conceited; they will be insulting, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, and irreligious;
3. they will be unkind, merciless, slanderers, violent, and fierce; they will hate the good;
4. they will be treacherous, reckless, and swollen with pride; they will love pleasure rather than God;
5. they will hold to the outward form of our religion, but reject its real power. Keep away from such people.
