11-2-2021 – A Word to the Wise – What does it matter?
Consider please Is there really any problem with grumbling? Or what about just a touch of thievery?
Surely a white lie is not really all that bad. And let’s face it a little adultery is an accepted practice, surely there is nothing really bad about it. And I can say with all confidence just a bit of complaining never hurt anything.
So it is we tend to cover up our lack of discretions, and excuse the seriousness of them. O, I forgot gluttony, greed, pride and a bit of anger. Yet all of these unrepentant acts will get us a place in the lake of fire whose ongoing temperature exceeds the comfort level.
The problem in our time is that there is a lack of voices to cry out against wickedness. It is not to be heard in the homes, in the church or society as a whole. I wonder if the Lord is weary of this lack of self-judgement and tolerance of evil?
Actually the bible is quite clear in numerous places that those who do such things will not be wearing white robes! So take warning and stop excusing misbehavior for it is a certainty that the Lord will not excuse it on that great judgement day when all behavior good and bad will be laid open for all to see.
