1 Peter 1:24-25
For all flesh is like grass and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower falls, but the word of the Lord remains forever. And this word is the good news that was preached to you.

The apostle Peter, referring to a passage in the book of Isaiah {Is.40:8}, is reminding us that the world and the things of the world are transient—here today and gone tomorrow—changing all of the time quite like the weather. Thank God that we believers have been born again, now children of our heavenly Father who does not change. {Mal.3:6} And we are now destined to be conformed into the image of our wonderful brother the Lord Jesus {Rom.8:29} who is the same yesterday and forever! {Heb.13:8}

In the world, things always change. Policies and politicians come and go, customs, the clothes that we wear and even the languages we speak are different today than they were a generation ago. Mankind, and unfortunately even much of the church today, works hard to try to change what the bible says! But at the end of the day, the one thing that will not change is the Word of God. Not the word that God spoke nor Jesus Christ, the Word made flesh who dwelt among us! {Jn.1:14} Jesus had said 'heaven and earth will pass away, but My words shall not pass away!' {Mat.24:35}
 
We need to bear in mind that even as Jesus made that declaration He was also saying to His disciples that in those (these) last days many false teachers and prophets would come in His name and would mislead many, leading them to fall away and have their love grow cold. {Mat, 24:4,12} In His letter to the first of the seven churches in the Book of Revelation, Ephesus, the Lord cautioned them to repent and return to their first love. In the letter to the last of those churches, Laodicea, what is evident is the total absence of Jesus! That is the last reference to the ‘churches’ in the Bible!

How can that horrible change have come to be? How can there be a 'church', if indeed it is still actually a church, without the presence of the Lord? They boast that they are rich and need nothing while Jesus sees that they are poor, wretched and naked! They have become blind to the truth. Is that not where the church is headed in the very last days?

The apostle Paul certainly believed and preached that! He wrote to his ‘son in the faith’ Timothy speaking of the perilous last days that “the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths.” {2Tim.4:3-4}

Even today, Jesus stands at the door and knocks {Rev.3:20} for His Word IS truth. Do not be deceived:
 
“Jesus therefore was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, if you abide in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." (John 8:31-32)
 
HIS WORD IS TRUTH—NO WORD, NO TRUTH
