2 Timothy 3 is a chapter in the New Testament of the Bible, written by the apostle Paul to his protégé Timothy. In this chapter, Paul warns Timothy about the difficult times that will come in the last days. He describes the characteristics of people who will be living in those times, highlighting their negative qualities and behaviors.
Paul emphasizes that people will become increasingly self-centered, loving themselves and money more than others. They will be boastful, proud, and disobedient to their parents. He mentions that they will be ungrateful, unholy, and lacking in natural affection. They will also be slanderous, without self-control, brutal, and treacherous. Paul further warns that people will be lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to a form of godliness but denying its power.
