Today's Thought "Why Couldn't They Just Speak It?" G. Ward

 

"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness." Romans 1:18

 

I'm thinking about my great grandparent's generation on today. Theirs was filled with moral absolutes, along with great limitations (I.e. social and economic disparities), whereby unrest was the norm. Their forecasts of hope didn't rest on governmental reprieve, but solely on God Sufficiency. Moreover there was no demand of Holy God's rescue on their terms in immediacy; they trusted in His timetable.

We, the current religious climate are witness to the pervasion in estimating their dispensational era as unlearned in contrast to our modern advancements. We've allowed liberality to perceive what God's word means, using it in conjunction to our vain philosophy; while being impressed with our bishops who are entirely unacquainted with whom we are. We refuse to be owned by anyone, including the Most High (cf. 1 Cor.6:19, Gal.2:20). Considering our waywardness in contrast to our great grandparent’s unrelenting submission, is God really blessing us as we suppose, or has HE given us over to the depravity of our demands?

Happy Monday!
