Offense

Matthew 24:10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
Offense left uncorrected leads to betrayal and betrayal leads to hatred
Matthew 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
other versions say because lawlessness shall abound the love of many shall wax cold
in the greek the word lawlessness means you are law unto yourself you have not submitted yourself to the Authority of God.
the greek word for love in matthew 24:12 is agape which is the love of God in the heart of a Christian. because of lawless thinking their love their fire & passion for God will grow cold. why ? go back to verse 10 and you will find the answer. offense left uncorrected builds walls of protection offense leads to betrayal and betrayal leads to hatred, lawless thinking
