"He
that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are
abomination to the Lord," Proverbs 17:15.
It
seems that sin is being accepted more than ever. Many are no longer ashamed of
their error, their mistakes, or their sin. When this happens, many feel
justified and they stay on the same path of destruction. They are telling
themselves, "I have done no wickedness" especially when they aren't
held accountable for their wrongdoings by those around them.
The
Lord God is not pleased with those who JUSTIFY the wicked nor those that
condemn the righteous. In this verse, they are put in the same category. They
are both called an abomination. That word means to hate, to loathe. Yet, people
want to say God is not angry with me! I believe this scripture proves that
statement to be wrong. "But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and
FIERY INDIGNATION, which shall devour the adversaries," Hebrews 10:27.
Adversaries are the enemies of God. He is definitely angry with SIN. "It
is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God," Hebrews
10:31.
Who
is speaking against sin? Who is sounding a warning? Where is the fear of the Lord? Who is lifting up the standard of
righteousness? Who is standing in the Gap? Who is proclaiming the year of the
Lord? Who is speaking TRUTH to this perverse generation? Who is declaring the
WORD of the Lord in the face of the wicked? "He that saith unto the
wicked, Thou art righteous; him shall the people curse, nations shall abhor
him: But to them that rebuke him shall be delight, and a good blessing shall
come upon them." Proverbs 24:24-25
I
believe God is merciful, gracious, and so patient with mankind. He loves YOU!
However, He does not condone SIN! He loves you more than that. He loves you so
much that He will send His Holy Spirit to convict you of your error, your
mistakes, your willful sin. It doesn't matter who justifies you, friends or
family. When God says it is sin, it is sin and it will separate you from God.
"My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou
art rebuked of him: For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every
son whom he receiveth," Hebrews 12:5-6.
The scripture goes on to say If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons. But if you be without chastening then you are not sons. It is your choice to receive correction or not. Ask God to send the Holy Spirit to convict and convince you of the sin that has beset you. The sin that maybe is accepted and even celebrated by the world. Only God is the true judge of all sin. "Let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: For our God is a consuming fire," Hebrews 12; 28b-29. It is Unwise To Justify The Wicked. (continued)
Amen. This is truth. Praise the Lord.
