Helel, the adversary, lurks behind the opposition to God's truth, fostering perilous times in the last days. These times, marked by great stress and difficulty, are characterized by a society dominated by self-love, leading to greed, arrogance, and a lack of true affection. Such conditions, described as hard to bear and menacing, reflect a culture of death where sin prevails, creating a demonic junkyard under heylel's influence. These perilous times are not unique but recur throughout the church's history, challenging believers with periods of danger and stress caused by evil individuals whose self-centered and immoral behavior spreads heresy and dead religion within the church. Despite these challenges, God's strength sustains His church, ensuring that the gates of hell do not prevail. The root of these stressful times lies in people being utterly self-centered, loving themselves, money, and pleasure rather than God, resulting in a breakdown of relationships and societal norms. Only through a transformation that reorients the heart toward God can believers overcome this narcissistic tendency and stand firm against the prevailing societal decline during these perilous times.

God reveals through the apostle Paul in II Timothy 3 that at the time of the end, perilous times will come amidst the advancements of technology that are supposed to improve life. The explanation for these perilous times is tied to human nature, as men will be lovers of themselves and lovers of money, precipitating dangerous circumstances. This warning from God highlights that the very advancements meant to benefit humanity are intertwined with the selfish and greedy motives that lead to widespread peril and confusion.

Perilous times are marked by difficult, threatening, and dangerous conditions, reflecting the ebb and flow of human nature's sinful expressions. These times are characterized by traits stemming from self-love, which is the root of numerous other sins, destroying divine and human relationships and making obedience to God and charity to men impossible. The peril to church members lies not in physical harm but in being drawn into expressing these same sinful attitudes and conduct prevalent in the world. The potential to commit these sins exists within the church, as all have come from a world that nurtures such traits, and none have fully overcome them. Even after conversion, the capacity to express these sins remains, necessitating constant vigilance. The deceitful heart can blind individuals to their true state, leading them to believe all is well due to superficial indicators, while ignoring the vital need for repentance and the vileness of sin. Sin approaches subtly, not as an overt enemy, but with attractiveness and appeal to human nature, drawing hearts toward it like a magnet, yet in God's loving eyes, it remains vile and deadly. The Father, in forming a Family Kingdom, upholds the sinless purity of His standards without compromise, having sacrificed His Son to address the cost of sin.
