God’s Wrath on Unrighteousness

Again Mike, great article.

“ As I have said many times before, unbelief is an amazing thing to witness. It does not matter how deep you go in God’s Word to show these people the truth nor how illogical their beliefs are when compared with God’s truth, it does not matter, they will not believe.”

So true…even Jesus encounters it, which is pretty clear in John 6 when you read the Chapter and all the amazing events but ends with John 6:66:

John 6:66  From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.

Notice the sadness in that verse and these were not the “religious” leaders.

Thankful we are given some hope for a different end:
2 Peter 3:9  The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

The culture needs a message to take to heart. Mr. Rodgers can’t hurt but the truth is we really need to hear messages like yours that are the truth in God’s word…..but who is going to listen?

Romans 1:32  Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

We can only hope and pray and proclaim God’s word faithfully.!

I was online today on a friends Facebook page reading about an issue he is dealing with in which a school is disciplining someone who called a “transgender” a girl. He was discussing how he would get involved because he writes and how he needed to get involved because the local press in that city is ignoring the whole thing. I was simply reading the article and trying to understand what was going on then began reading the comments when a person that I did not know started calling my friend a bigot. He made several very rude and crude comments. I made one comment about how hypocritical it was for those demanding tolerance to…
