God's Answer To Corruption

 
Today's verse is Isaiah 33:14
     The sinners in Zion are afraid;
      Fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites.
      Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire?
      Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?

    And some have said that there is no mention of Hell in the Old Testament! Are you afraid yet? Of what kind of fear toward God do you have? There will be a time when Great and small shall cry out, asking the mountains to fall upon them, lest they encounter and have to face the lamb of God. Yet that same lamb was sacrificed for us, to take our place, to be our propitiation before a Righteous and Holy God. By him, by his Spirit, we shall be able to walk righteously, by him, we shall be able to speak uprightly. By him, we shall despise the gain of oppression. By him, we shall forsake bribes. By him, we shall forsake the hearing of blood. By him, we shall shut our eyes on evil. Thus, we shall live on high, in a place of strong defense, with our belly full and our thirst quenched. Amen.

To God be the Glory
Scott
