Identity and love and the last days

Hello there,
The more I think about the crisis of today's world, the more I realize that it can be resumed in one phrase: "A lack of identity and true love characterizes our present world". These are the most vital and important values the human race possess. Now in the Greek language there are 4 words to express the meaning of love: phil(e)o (enjoyment, fondness, friendship), eros (romance), storge (family loyalty) and agape (unconditional, godly love).
Many people today have lost a sense of identity, or simply put, do not know who they are and what they are doing and for what purpose they were created. Second, there is so much confusion today about what love means that people do not even know how to love or even who to love!! Confusion reigns and is creating havoc in our modern world. The great question that must be addressed today is: "Who is Man"? Who are we, you and I? What is Humanity? Because of the humanistic political correctness so prevalent in our secularized world today, society cannot answer it for blindness has covered the eyes of most people and neither the right nor the left wing of the political spectrum can answer these questions for an obvious lack of the right approach to it and because, though Man has become the center of attention he has become less than who he really is because the center should be and is in reality God. The glory of God or man's ego? This is the question that should be addressed! The author of Proverbs says it rightly in chap.29 v.23: "A man's pride brings him low, but the lowly in spirit gain honor".
I am also thinking about what the Apostle Paul addresses in Timothy 3:1-9 that in the last days people will be obsessed with themselves and their own egotistical, rebellious as well as religious empty lives. What a description of men and women that were, in the beginning, created in the image of God.
Could it be that we are actually living in the last days? I should think so!
Let us pray that we will be able to stand what is coming and that the grace of God will be with us, amen!
