“LAST DAYS’ LAWLESSNESS There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God. . . . 2 Timothy 3:1–4 It’s certainly hard to argue we’re not living in the last days as described in the Bible. Everything in these verses matches up with our current circumstances; there’s a never-ending road of examples lately. Our culture, and Western civilization as a whole, has been declining for a long while—but things can look especially grim today. We do seem to live in evil times when evil is celebrated—whether it’s in the brazen rejection of the Gospel or in the unashamed brutality of terrorist groups like ISIS. A surprising number of our fellow Americans don’t like the word “evil.” They’re always voicing the need for “tolerance” or “understanding”—or what you and I would call “moral relativism.” But these same people sure are keen on trying to legislate “evil” away when it comes to issues like guns, as if gun control laws (that only the good guys will follow) are a solution rather than an added problem.”

In November 2006, Sarah Palin was elected as the first female and youngest governor of the US State of Alaska. She was the mayor of the city of Wasilla, Alaska from 1996 to 2002. She had also been a member of Wasilla City Council from 1992 to 1996 and chairman of Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission from 2003 to 2004. Sarah Palin, a running mate of Senator John McCain, was the Republican Party's first female vice-presidential nominee.
Sarah Palin was born into a Roman Catholic family. Her family joined a Pentecostal church, Assembly of God, that she attended until 2002. She later joined Wasilla Bible Church because according to her they offered children's ministries.
Palin was a member of the Wasilla City Council from 1992 to 1996. She was elected twice but could not complete her second term, as she ran for the city's mayor elections in 1996, which she eventually won. She was the Mayor of the city of Wasilla for three consecutive terms. One interesting fact about her first year in the office of mayor was that she kept a box in which the names of all Wasilla residents were put. Every week she would pick out a name, call the person and ask about the functioning of the city. This act of her's earned her respect and popularity among the people of Wasilla. On December 4, 2006, she became the governor of Alaska. She has done a lot for the state - most important being the development of oil and natural gas resources.
