Romans 3:9-19
Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used
deceit, he poison of asps is under their lips; Whose mouth is full of cursing
and bitterness; Their feet are swift to shed blood. Destruction and misery are
in their ways; and the way of peace have they not known; there is no fear of
God before their eyes. Now we know that what things so ever the law saith, it
saith to them who are under the law; that every mouth may be stopped, and all
the world may become guilty before God.
Abstract
This
article takes an reflective look at God's anger and why He became angry. God
pronounced the whole world guilty because of sin and no one feared Him or gave
Him His reverence.
Is
God angry with the world today? The answer is a resounding yes. This is
witnessed by nature how the forces of nature is displaying God's anger. Just as
God pronounced the whole world guilty during the Bible days, He has done the
same thing today and sin have become prevalent just as it was then. Nature is
putting on a magnificent display of God's anger with the many disasters that is
being witnessed the world over.
Same-sex
marriages is a abomination against God and it is raging in these United States
as many states have legalized marriage between same-sex couples. Greed and
murder is common place in the US
and around the world. God is not pleased.
To
answer our discussion question of when do you feel God is angry can be answered
by saying He is angry and it is on display. It was displayed this winter when
here in the USA
when all of the 52 states experienced freezing weather. When was the last time
the Southern states experienced the snow, rain, sleet and ice as they did this
season. It was so devastating that it caused chaos on the highways that left
many stranded for days. In the north many states have experienced 66+ straight
days of below freezing weather with record breaking snow totals. While many
parts of the US experienced
subzero weather parts of California
experienced the worse drought ever.
During
last year's summer season many parts of the country experienced devastating
drought conditions. Our food supply was threatened and with California 's current drought condition its
water supply is threaten. Forest fires are
becoming more dangerous and widespread. There have been earth quakes in places
that normally doesn't get them. What do
you call this other than God displaying His anger?
God
said in His Word that He would speak to us in different ways and places. He is doing
just that. God's anger will be displayed with much worse devastations if man
doesn't turn from his evil ways. 2 Chronicles 7:14 speaks to God's willingness
to heal our land, but there are four conditions that man has to meet and they
are (a) Humble themselves, (b) pray, (c) seek God's face, and (d) turn from
their wicked ways, then God will heal this land because He would have heard
man's cry for restoration. God will forgive sin as He is a forgiving God. In
His forgiving He will heal this land. God is faithful to His promises. If
healing is promised then it will happen, if judgment is promised then that too
will happen.
Let
us take the discussion of God's anger being felt to another level from the
stand point of same-sex marriages, which have become prevalent in this country
and God is not please. This is because marriage is an institution established
by God Himself between a man and a woman. Today we see many courts overturning
the true definition of marriage as established by God and for this God is going
to bring plagues and raise us prehistoric creatures from the sea and earth to
get our attention. God is not going to
allow man to destroy the beauty of His creations and institutions. Marriage is
holy unto God and He places a high value on the family.
We are beginning to see
sea creatures being washed up from the sea that had been dormant for years. Who is to say a dinosaur egg that's been
lying dormant in the earth for many years and at God's appointed time will come
alive?
Let us take a reflective
look at how God punished sin in the Bible days after constant warning the
people to repent and turn from their wicked ways. The Israelites was led into
captivity and remained there for 70 years. He punished Pharaoh by drowning him
in the Red Sea for oppressing the nation of Israel . He destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah
because of their sins. Being that the United
States have become the new face of Sodom
and Gomorrah
what make us think God isn't going to punish us for our sinful ways.
God is angry with America and the
whole world and it is being felt daily. His punishment is sure to rain down upon
us like a torrent rain storm.
