From John Collins Ministries:
“The Lord tests the righteous, But the wicked and the one who loves violence His soul hates. Upon the wicked He will rain coals; Fire and brimstone and a burning wind Shall be the portion of their cup.” Psalm 11:5-6 (NKJV).
Does anyone take notice of the violence in our children’s
video games, the violence in movies and the violence in our streets? Violence
is entertainment and violence is a way of life. People want to say that guns
are at fault, others want to blame the parents, or the schools, or the gangs,
or the mob, or the terrorists, or the government and of course they want to
blame God.
People don’t value life. People take life for granted,
become embittered, nurture hatred and ponder violence and then act on it.
People don’t care about consequences. People don’t want to hear about the
judgment of God. People have lost their way.
Life is precious and can be good. Life matters and God wants
each of you to value life and to seek the kingdom of heaven. God is loving and
compassionate and God is wrath. There is a limit to His longsuffering and
judgment does come and in the end God always wins. God is the one who always
wins. When people show utter contempt for His creation it is an offense to Him
and He notices.
Before it is too late, turn and learn to do righteousness,
learn to love forgiveness and learn to seek God every minute of every day and
teach that to your children. It is time to turn this thing around and time to
stand up for all that is righteous and good and learn to walk in the ways of
Christ.
“For the Lord is righteous, He loves righteousness; His countenance beholds the upright.” Psalm 11:7 (NKJV).
