I Ask You?



I have been reading through Jeremiah and Ezekiel now for a few weeks.  It has troubled me greatly.  And I know you cannot connect America, the Church with Israel and the Jewish people.  But God’s character is clearly displayed.  He hands the people over to their desires. God hands the people over to lust for sex, money, material things, greed and to the oppressing of the poor.  He hands them over to their idols and the killing of their children to those same false gods.  He then judges them and he pours out his anger on them for one purpose…to make his name known.  In the midst of destruction people turn to God and pray for his mercy.  He is their only hope from themselves.  

People say they don’t want this kind of God, they shake their fist in his face and curse his name.  He then turns them over to the desire of their hearts.  They plunge themselves into the depths of their sin without restraint, whatever their hearts desire they do.  They engage in sexual sin at the expense of thousands lured by the possibility of easy money, in turn they use the innocent to inflame the lust of the people who enslave millions of young children and young adults to further satisfy their desires.  They abort the millions whose voice cannot be heard in the name of freedom of their genital and exchange the truth for a lie and natural relations for unnatural.  

Their quest for lust of things cannot be satisfied, they sacrifice their futures and the futures of their children for the satisfaction of the now.  God hands them over to the desires of their stomachs and thus we create an entirely new line of medical problems never seen before in the history of man.  GURD, diabetes, hypertension, knee and hip replacement to hold the weight, cancers and on and on the list goes.  

God Hands us over to the technology and toys which enslaves us to mindless entertainment and endless distraction around us.  On the other side millions are enslaved who toil in mines of needed metals to eke out an existence for the promise of a better life, while other grows fat by their labor.  Factories workers work 16 hour days in city factories to produce the next fruit phone or big screen television.  In this pursuit of self-desires we sacrifice our children and abandon them to the machines of mindless games, fatherless refuges, which grow up strong in youth without moral restraint and the character needed to control their anger and rage…and cannot understand why one would walk into a classroom and shoot children dead.  We'll give up freedoms in return —with the hopes of controlling their broken and sick hearts with words written on pages of books for lawyers and judges. 

This is just a little piece of what’s going on and how long will a just God sit back and let this happen before he steps in.  I ask you.
