I always hear men talk about various topics and then they insert the phrase, “…and because God is a gentleman…”. Really? He deep fried Sodom and Gomorrah. He drowned the entire Egyptian army. He commanded Israel to eradicate the Canaanites. He struck Uriah dead for touching the ark.
That was Uzzah. Uriah was a "Heep".
Quote:
He sent plagues that decimated men, women, children, cattle, etc. He interrupted a false prophet by sending an angel bearing the sword to terrify the wayward prophet’s donkey. He took entire nations and dragged them upon the nation of Israel with “hooks in their jaws”. He flooded an entire planet of demonized hedonists. While flailing strips of leather, he flipped tables and drove money changers out of the temple. He struck Ananias and Sepphirah dead for lying. He knocked Saul off his horse and blinded him to force him to surrender and get with the destiny God had preplanned for him from before creation. Through Paul he cursed a sorcerer to blindness. And… He’s coming back in Christ Jesus with the Holy Angels in flaming fire of vengeance against His enemies. He doesn’t sound much like a “gentle” anything to me. He sounds like a GOD who knows who He is and means business. It’s a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God who DEMANDS to be recognized as sovereign LORD, SAVIOR, and CREATOR. You’ll not find a single human will that successfully withstood His sovereign will and power in the entire Bible.
Bro… you better choose what He has chosen to be… or else. The elect discover this quickly and surrender to it.
