157..DIVINE INDIGNATION
Once again I turn to the latest UNSEARCHABLE RICHES for inspiration and read of “Divine Indignation.”
Another benefit for the Ecclesia the “believers”!
WHAT is “Divine Indignation” or "the wrath of God"?
It is defined as ”righteous anger”.
WHO better to have “righteous anger” than God the Father?
WHY God will be stirred to “divine indignation” is because offenses, committed by mankind, are intolerable.
In other words, acts so vile and so offensive that He can no longer restrain His wrath.
I wonder what offenses that we commit here on earth would be the “final straw” so to speak..the “one” that would “set Him off”?
But who could know the mind of the Father?
I am reminded though of one instance when two cities were obliterated by “fire and brimstone”, by Yaweh, God’s Presence on earth, because of their unbridled licentiousness.
May we not be more aware of the licentious acts so brazenly displayed today?
HOW will"divine indignation" be manifested??
I believe Jesus tells us in Luke, when He said that He had come to” cast fire upon the earh”.
He went on to say that first He had a “baptism” to undergo, meaning His cricifixion and death, in order to ensure the saving of all mankind.
All will be saved, but “believers” enjoy that knowledge now, whereas unfortunately, most do not.
WHERE might be found in Revelation , where it tells of the bloody battle on the plain of Meggido (the Valley of Jezreel), a conflict between the forces of God and those of Satan, which will probably be contested world-wide.
God alone knows WHEN but there is no doubt that it will take place .
It is through God’s grace, Paul tell us, ,that “believers” will be saved from His wrath because we are justified in Christ’s blood..paulnbob
