The Lord’s Teaching for the Last Days

“Be watchful for your life; do not let your lamps be quenched or your loins be ungirded, but be ready, for you do not know the hour in which our Lord comes. Be often gathered together, seeking what is fit for your souls, for the whole time of your faith will not profit you if you are not perfect at the end of the season.

For in the last days false prophets and seducers will be multiplied, and the sheep will be turned into wolves, and love will be turned into hate. For as lawlessness increases, they will hate and persecute and betray one another.”

Excerpt from the Didache (The Lord’s Teaching Through the Twelve Apostles to the Nations), circa 100 AD
