‘You should know this, Timothy, that in the last days there will be very difficult times. For people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred. They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control. They will be cruel and hate what is good. They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God. They will act religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly. Stay away from people like that!’ 2 Timothy 3:1-5 (NLT)
People living in the environment described in 2 Timothy 3:1–5 will develop high levels of stress. This is extremely dangerous for the human body and may cause many diseases. The whole body is affected by stress physically and spiritually. Prolonged symptoms lead to acute diagnoses, which, if not treated with the right interventions, will become chronic diseases. More complications and comorbidities may lead to early physical and mental disabilities, putting a burden on oneself, one’s family, the community, and society.
All these signs and symptoms can be minimized or avoided if we learn more about what triggers them. We can change our perception about life’s problems and learn how to manage stress by following God’s supernatural prescriptions. We will benefit by simply taking to heart all the instructions and directions in the Word of God, plus the results of scientific knowledge that God has allowed us to develop in this modern era.
It is a miracle. The entire body, mind, and spirit are incomprehensible—an amazing, miraculous creation with visible and invisible functions. We are truly God’s masterpieces. Now let’s get started.
