Today’s Thought “Unbelief, On Both Sides…” G. Ward
Romans 1
18 For the
wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and
unrighteousness of people who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19 because that which is known about God
is evident within them; for God made it evident to them.
While these times lacking moral absolutes witnesses the
church with bombastic critique of systems more currently responsible for such
passages more than ever before, Holy God had this settled unto every generation
responsible for sin’s pervasiveness. While God’s wrath is varied (i.e.,
environmental and consequential), the worst includes abandonment
(as HE allows our pursuits distant from His commands = free will), and
shamefully, the church has become equally guilty with their hope for conformity
through governmental legislation, social reform, etc., (as if to say they can
thwart this act of God). Instead, we’re called to know that Christ remains the
Sole Worker of spiritual transformation necessary for man; having exemplified Heaven’s
standard (perfectly) and commissioning followers to share Truth (with any), so
as to establish them to the great reality of a home without ungodliness and
unrighteousness. Ultimately, any that think of other measures that can
transform mankind’s consideration of perceived moralities (outside of the Spirit
realm - *Ro.12:2) is guilty of suppressing Truth and whereas many will continue
thereunto, I choose His lordship over me (Ps.23:1).
