Isaiah 59:2
King James Version
2 But your iniquities have separated
between you and your God,
and your sins have hid his face from you,
that he will not hear.
Sin is the state of the world today.
Actually, for the longest time.
Wherein GOD laid down His laws.
Man followed -- for a while.
Then went back to his old, wild, wanton ways.
Incurring GOD's wrath once more.
And on and on, the cycle goes.
With the spirit of Satan behind every evil thought, word, and deed.
These verses describe the world today.
Proverbs 30:11-14
King James Version
11 There is a generation that curseth their father,
and doth not bless their mother.
12 There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes,
and yet is not washed from their filthiness.
13 There is a generation, O how lofty are their eyes!
and their eyelids are lifted up.
14 There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords,
and their jaw teeth as knives,
to devour the poor from off the earth,
and the needy from among men.
Is it man's joy, to displease GOD?
Does he delight, in doing so?
It is Satan's delight, to mock GOD.
And to destroy us, in the process.
But GOD would have none of our foolishness.
He turns away from our sinfulness.
Exodus 32:33
King James Version
33 And the Lord said unto Moses,
Whosoever hath sinned against me,
him will I blot out of my book.
Exodus 32:34-35
King James Version
34 Therefore now go,
lead the people unto the place
of which I have spoken unto thee:
behold,
mine Angel shall go before thee:
nevertheless in the day when I visit
I will visit their sin upon them.
35 And the Lord plagued the people,
because they made the calf,
which Aaron made.
Micah 3:4
King James Version
4 Then shall they cry unto the Lord,
but he will not hear them:
he will even hide his face from them at that time,
as they have behaved themselves ill
in their doings.
When will man ever learn?
Why do we keep testing GOD's patience?
Shall we wait for His wrath, before we return to Him?
Are not the prophecies being fulfilled?
Are not the prophecies warnings?
Are we going to wait for the last minute before we repent?
Before we even acknowledge we've sinned?
Are we going to continue listening to false prophets, and antichrists?
Are we going to continue being high, and mighty, and painfully ignorant?
What will it take to wake up?
We need to be born again, by GOD.
Being born again means you turn to Scripture.
You turn from your old ways.
You follow JESUS.
You obey the LORD's commands.
You have NO desire to sin anymore.
You just want to get things right, this time around.
You listen to SPIRIT, Who teaches you about JESUS.
You live by Scripture, not man's word.
It's the only way we can change the world.
If we let JESUS change us.
From within.
Before the Rapture happens.
Each day is PURE GRACE from GOD.
We are all so blessed by His continuing mercy.
Lamentations 3:22-23
King James Version
22 It is of the Lord's mercies
that we are not consumed,
because his compassions fail not.
23 They are new every morning:
great is thy faithfulness.
But let us not stretch His patience.
Let us be aware of our sins.
Let us be shamed by it.
Let the sinless ONE free us from our sins.
It's time to heed JESUS now.
