EP-948: Perilous Times Defined! — Perilous Times are Here — Perilous Times Defined; 11. Slanderers!

🔥 What if one of the clearest signs of the last days is happening every day in the news—false accusations, slander, and truth being twisted? The Bible warned that this would rise dramatically as we approach the end.

In this eye-opening episode of Insights to the End Times, Dr. Brian Scott reveals how slander has become a dominant force in society —and why it’s a powerful prophetic sign we can’t ignore.

🎥 Episode Summary

Continuing through 2 Timothy 3, Dr. Scott unpacks the next major sign of the last days: slanderers. He explains that this word, rooted in the Greek term diabolos, is directly connected to the nature of the devil—the accuser. This isn’t just about gossip or criticism; it’s about a culture increasingly driven by accusation, false claims, and damaging words that carry serious consequences.

This episode highlights how slander has expanded far beyond personal interactions and into entire systems—especially legal systems, media, and digital platforms. With the rise of social media and constant information flow, accusations can spread instantly, often without truth or accountability. Dr. Scott shares real-world insights from his legal background, showing how costly and destructive these accusations can become for individuals trying to defend themselves.

Using a powerful illustration of a broken dam, Dr. Scott explains how once moral restraints are removed, slander floods society unchecked. He connects this to the biblical concept of the “restrainer” in 2 Thessalonians, warning that what we’re seeing now is only a preview of what’s coming. This message is a clear call to discern truth, guard your words, and recognize the spiritual forces at work in today’s culture.
