Matthew 24

As I compared the 24th Chapter of Matthew with the Joseph Smith translation of the same, the Savior said something that was not included in Matthews record repeating -

"And again, because iniquity shall abound, the love of men shall wax cold; but he that shall not be overcome, the same shall be saved."  (Pearl of Great Price | JS-Matthew 1:30)

As I pondered our day, entertainment, media, and much of society seems to promote personal gratification in lieu of fidelity, love and commitment.  Thus, love seems to become colder and colder in personal relationships.  In its place...selfishness.

The reasoning herein is those that are true and faithful, first loving God more than self, and then second "loving" our fellowman more than personal gratification would be those that overcome the world and its temptation with the promise that they "shall" be saved.

Great promise.
