WILL HE JUDGE?
“For the time is
come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin
at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?”
-1 Peter 4:17
David Augsburger
once stated: “The imperfection of justice in this life is the strongest
proof that in the next world justice and vengeance will be fulfilled to
the utmost.” A lot of evils are committed in the world every day and the
perpetrators seem to go scot-free. The oppressed find it hard to get
justice in the law courts and they cry out: “Will God judge? Even the
oppressors and wicked people wonder if it is true that God will judge
them some day. Yes, God will judge the world. Sodom and Gomorrah or the
house of the Priest Eli did not escape His judgment.
According to our text, God has no favorites and does not delight in
burnt offerings and sacrifices, but obedience to His Word. No youth can
cajole God with tithes and offerings, water baptism, confirmation and
taking of the Lord’s Supper. Jesus will judge all sinners and
backsliders, if they die in their sins. Yes, He will. To escape it, you
need salvation. Repent and believe the gospel today.
Challenge: God will never compromise His holy standard.
Prayer: Lord, deliver me from presumptuous sins and evils.
Quote: Jesus will judge all
Futher Reading: Psalm 50:1 – 15.
