God has a controversy with the nations. Let us seek righteousness and meekness. It may be we will be hid from the Lords judgment. Zephaniah 2:3

Again, so only the people dying are under judgement?

But God amplified the foot steps.. I don’t think God amplified the flu to bring this hysteria. Good point tho...

Then theres Gideon...nothing supernatural other than Gods involvement with the selection and planning...confusion and disorientation and the Midianites slew themselves with Gideon not even getting his blade bloody.


At least thats the way I remember it.


I also remember something about ditches filled with water that in the red dawn looked like blood that sent some folks packing as well...seems like God can not only do things directly to you but He can also cause you to act of your own volition to fulfill His will by adjusting your perception...what you see and hear.

I can only speak generally about Gods ways. We are told if we dwell in the secret place (Psalm 91) we will have protection. There are times judgment breaks out and is then drawn back. Usually not all the wicked die.

It appears that it's not only the "deep state commies" that are plotting our demise, but the current administration too.

From our viewpoint it hard to tell the difference sometimes.

Re: The Virus And Judgment
 

I dont think we should be telling people not to fear and panic. I believe God wants sinners to fear and panic. Thats why he sends judgment in the first place.

The saints on the other hand should be strong in the Lord and the power of his might. When there is a door of witness dont just tell people not to fear because God is a good God.

He is a good God but he wants sinners to know that he is against sin and that the only way to please him is to believe in and obey Jesus Christ.

So the "fear not" message as it relates to saints at least includes the idea dont be afraid to tell the sinners about God judging the nations as well as individuals.

Great...Ill just be sure to be extra judgey and dial my discernment up to 11 and make sure their pastor*and they better attend my favorite denomination* is current on his membership card and THEN Ill tell them to dont be skeered....all the other ones get kneecapped by Mafia Jesus till they get their act straight.


Yes, judgement is used by God to bring repentance but also goodness.


Romans 2:4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

Re: The Virus And Judgment
 

I believe that times such as these can be used by God in order to cause people to refocus their values and their lives. It isn’t always necessarily a judgment.
