I wonder what you would have considered the eras of Domitian, Decius and Diocletion, or the rise of Islam and the Ottoman Empire, or the Enlightenment and Age of reason, to be signs of?

The evidence of this is the churches that teach that tradition supercedes the Bible; Liberal churches who follow Bishop Spong's teaching which denies the virgin birth, resurrection of Christ, God as a real person, the Jesus of history, and boils the Christian faith down to living morally, being tolerant to all religions as part of "our community of faith"; that the Bible is not the Word of God, but contains religious insights that could be the Word of God for us. These ones, when they mention God, Christ, and faith, they define these words quite differently to evangelical Christians.Belief in God and the Truth of His Eternal Word is under Attack today!=Signs of the last days!

God bless, hallelujah!I believe you are taking it for granted that your OP is self-evident in its meaning and therefore there is no misunderstanding in what you mean. I beg to differ. The audience here can be wide, and it is.
Your OP could mean your God is the impersonal nondescript Triune/Tri-part god who has a shared divine nature. And you could mean your eternal 'Word' is a divine god as the same as your nondescript Triune god and also called the Son of the Triune god. I'm guessing you believe in this one..
Or, you could mean the your God is YHWH, the LORD, with a very distinct, one and only, indivisible perfect divine nature with a unique personal name that means 'I will be who I will be' or 'I am that I am.' That is my God and LORD. And you could also mean that the logo/word is the intrinsic expression or voice of YHWH placed into his human Son, called Yahshua. And this is my Lord and Savior, the one with one perfect nature, that is human, of a man and not divine. YHWH did not and could not share his own divine nature with no one. Impossible! He is above all creation, before time and is ONE.
Of course there are other God/word models to choose from like a few that believe in a 3 mode versus a 3 personality Triune god. Or the diversification in flesh and one spirit model.
Regardless of which one is 'yours,' this attack on your model the first one I believe has been going on since the 2nd century AD. Nothing new here to see. If anything is new today, folks are starting to question 'your' model, the 3 personality, with the many creative analogies to try and explain it in its extra-biblical form, as in the '3 states of water,' '3 legs of a stool,' etc. And that this god shares his one divine nature, as found in pagan and early Greek sources.
And I think it is about time and long overdue to question once and for all, how can the Greek transliterated word 'logos' for the English 'word,' ever become a person. And how can the sole owner of divinity, of YHWH, 400 - 500 years after John wrote Revelation, suddenly become a split shared nature of 3 personalities; forced upon people under extreme political and military coercion. John would be amazed to find out that his words for his God and Savior became 'alien beings' to him.
If you consider now that your 'god' and 'word' are under attack, then that is a good thing. IMO
Waiting and eager to see my Christ, the only Son of his Father, YHWH.
Bless you,

Amen to that, indeed..APAKGod bless, hallelujah!
...if that is GysMis' grounds for claiming that his church is under attack, then let me be the first to lead the battalion (next to you of course)!
