Did prophecy have any practical significance to those who were its first hearers? 5. Do we need a command to love ourselves? 6. Would humanism, secularism, existentialism, and hedonism be considered signs of the last days? 7. Are apostate “men of the cloth” now on the historical scene (cf. Jer. 14:14; 23:14, 16)? 8. What did the Lord Jesus call the religious leaders of his day (Mat. 23:13-33)? 9. Are we living in the last days of prophecy, or the last days of the body of Christ?
