Self “This know also, that in the last days … men shall be lovers of their own selves” (2 Timothy 3:1-2). • Self-esteem • Self-help • Self-love • Self-occupation • Self-expression • Self-will • Selfishness • Self-indulgence • Self-pity These are words that are all too prominent in our vocabulary today. As the above verse indicates, “self” is one of the characteristics of the “last days” just before the Lord comes. But that does not mean that it has to characterize the believer. On one occasion, the Lord was asked, “Master, which is the great commandment in the law?” His answer was, “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind” (Matthew 22:36-37). Let’s be careful that “self” does not replace our love for Christ, our concern for the lost, and our care for our fellow believers.
