🩸 Days of Devils – Day 13: Moral Decay Monday
📍 A City in Crisis: The Spiritual Cost of Violence
✝️ Pastor Joshua Tapp Addresses the Moral Decay in Louisville
Welcome to Days of Devils. I’m Pastor Joshua Tapp from True Words Baptist Church in Louisville, Kentucky. Today, we confront the alarming rise in violence in our city and explore its deeper spiritual roots.
📖 2 Timothy 3:1-4 – Perilous Times Shall Come
“This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves… unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good…”
This passage warns us of the moral decline that characterizes the last days—a decline evident in our communities today.

The increase in violence is symptomatic of a deeper issue: the erosion of spiritual values and the rejection of God’s commandments. As a society turns away from biblical principles, chaos and lawlessness ensue.
