God’s Wrath against Sinful Humanity

It’s an absolute truth that God has created everything. And certainly, He foreknew the outcome of everything that has been created. Somehow this truth is made known to every man on the face of this earth. It says in Jeremiah 1:5, NIV-Bible; “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations”. In a sense, God knew each and everyone on this earth, either as a prophet or hooligan. And He allowed both extremes to exist as we name them ‘good and bad’. It appears that good complements the bad, as they both benefit from each other in their own ways. Though the Bible doesn’t promote the evil, the existence of darkness in the bible is justifiable.

The word of God says in Romans 1:18-25, NIV-Bible; “The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world, God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse. For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened – Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles. Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised.”

Therefore, if you’re given to know the truth, and made alive with the image of Christ Jesus by any means – believe that you’re blessed and listed as good, to be called ‘the elect’. It is not fallacious that the sinful man on this earth will be surely wiped out by the Lord, as they are called ‘the evil’. And praise Him that you’re not chosen for the sinful world, but for the Lord alone. Amen
