All the outrage, in the media(primarily Christ rejecting), in our country, by our politicians, on this site, and the cry for "justice!" Hang that sonofa.....!
What about the LORD God's broken heart? You don't think he "hurts," when things such as this happens? You don't think he hurts every day, observing the evil of mankind, each and every one of us, commits, every day, despite our self righteous protests/spin, to the contrary? How much evil have you/I committed, in our/my life, of which the LORD God has not extracted punishment? Where is the justice?
And where is the justice in the most beautiful creature to have ever lived, the Lord Jesus Christ, who knew no sin, going to a cross, reserved for criminals-you and me?
Yes, God the Father stood by, and watched the most beautiful man that ever walked the face of the earth, who knew no sin( 2 Cor. 5:21 KJV; Hebrews 4:15 KJV,7:26 KJV; 1 John 3:5 KJV; Luke 23:4 KJV; John 18:38 KJV,19:4-6 KJV), His beloved Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, be mocked, beaten, spit upon..............and crucified, for our sake? Yes, God the Father stood by and let people pull the beard out of His only begotten Son, His "beloved Son"(Mt. 3:17 KJV, 12:18 KJV, 17:5 KJV....Song of Solomon), while they spit on His face, beat Him, shoved a crown of thorns on His head, stripped Him naked and mocked Him, took Him outside the city, and nailed Him to a cross reserved for criminals, us, and let Him die there while our sins were upon Him. We did that. You did that. Believers did that. I did that.
How many parents would do the same if they saw the same happen to their son(or daughter)? How would you feel if you witnessed the crucifixion of your son or daughter? Ever had your heart broken by a tragedy? What about the LORD God's broken heart?
The cross of the Lord Jesus Christ is many things to many people, but one thing it is not is a tolerance for sin.
Since sin is ultimately against the Lord God, i.e., He is "the injured party", and yes, His heart breaks when those He loves are injured, or the ones He loves injure others. However, I would ask believers/unbelievers who lie, cheat, steal, have affairs, divorce, have evil thoughts, fail to help someone in need.............................................. ..........................,...
........("you know", sin in what we do, what we don't do, how we think, who we are......), and thus injure others, and sin against the LORD God, where was God? Perhaps you(me) should be judged immediately?
"For all have sinned(emphasis mine), and come short of the glory of God." Romans 3:23 KJV
Are we all willing to take our deserved, righteous judgment right now, for the evil we cause, the tragedies we cause? And right now? Are we?
The LORD God is telling all of us, including myself, to shut our big, fat, hypocritical, self righteous mouths, as it is written,(not suggested),
"...that every mouth may be stopped(emphasis mine-"shut up"), and all the world may become guilty (emphasis mine)before God"(Romans 3:19 KJV), and thank Him for His grace, "....the God of all grace..."(1 Peter 5:10 KJV) , that He offered up His only begotten Son, the Lord Jesus Christ(Hebrews 9:28 KJV), and poured out His wrath, His righteous judgment, on His only begotten Son,the Lord Jesus Christ, instead of us, as ".... it pleased the LORD to bruise him..."(Isaiah 53:10 KJV), instead of us, as the Saviour "...offered up himself..."(Hebrews 7:27 KJV 9:14 KJV, John 10:17,18 KJV) to God the Father, "...for our sins..."(1 Cor. 15:1-4 KJV, Galatians 1:4 KJV).
A day is coming, when:
1.The LORD God is going to laugh at those who spit on the cross, walk over the blood atonement of the Lord Jesus Christ, laugh and mock at a virgin conception, and a bodily resurrection of His Christ. There is coming a day when the modern-day "enlightened" "Atheists" are going to hear the laughter of God. There is coming a day when the Hitlers, the Mussolinis, the Stalins, the baby butchers are going to hear Him laugh. There is coming a day when all the God haters, who rejected His book, and His Christ, despising "the righteousness of God," are going to hear the laughter of this holy LORD God, as they are cast into Hell.
Rough words? War is rough. It's a rough book. Accept it.
Proverbs 1 KJV
26I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
27 When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.
28 Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the Lord:
30 They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
You had better start fearing....tick, tick, tick.....as the "great cosmic comic," the Lord Jesus Christ, whom you laugh at now, will have the last laugh.
2. The LORD God is going to put an end to all this nonsense, this evil, caused by man, when He comes back as the "man of war"(Ex. 15:3 KJV, Is. 42:13 KJV, Rev. 19:11 KJV) in judgment, and then takes care of the evil issue. All of us ought to get on our knees, and thank Him that, in His forbearance(Romans 2:4 KJV, Romans 3:25 KJV),He is withholding the extracting of justice.
Revelation 21:4 KJV
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
Let the boo's rain down on me. Frankly, I don't give a d__, as I thrive on rejection, and many members of the body of Christ ought to be ashamed themselves, as they talk like the primarily Christ rejecting world on this issue.
