Scripture, when interpreted in the light of
the nature, teachings and ministry of Jesus,
is the measure for all truth.
TRUTH
John 8:31-32
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
Since this world rejects God's revelation and His incarnation, it is no wonder our world is in such consternation and disconsolation.
I don't think the world is going to come to Christ, as in the time of the Philadelphian Period (circa 1600 to 1990). I do think that from this point on there will be pockets of Philadelphian Open Door ministry and Smyrnan Persecution suffering, but more and more there will be Laodicean "if any man" ministries taking place.
The world (the Christ rejecting population) is becoming more intolerant and hostile to the Word of God (both Inscripturated and Incarnated) and the people of God are going to face more persecution as this present evil time winds down.
2 Timothy 3:12-13
12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
1 Timothy 4:1-2
1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
2 Peter 3:3-7
3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
