3There will be and there are many that make fun of Christians for followingChrist and those who make fun of a faith in anything bigger than them, today wesee people who think they are to smart to accept God or anything false god aswell they reject anything that takes faith. Those of the world at one time hada respect for the church but that time is gone and they do what they want nomatter who it hurts. Lusts here is talking about any fleshly desire, the sad thingis those who say they are His live this way.
4There will be those who will mock because we are waiting on His return, He willreturn in His time not in our time, or when we want Him to return.
5These people do not do Christ if they did they would never do this. God createdthe world by speaking; this is the power of God that they do not know.
