So, Who Is Your Father?

God is not partial. His judgments are based on fairness and justice; He judges all: the Jew, the Gentile, the free, the slave, the young, the old, the male, the female by the same standard. God cannot and will not tolerate sin for He is a Holy God. Still, all must know that He does not delight in judgment and wants all to come to salvation; He has made a way for this for all. Having said this, those who turn their backs to Him rejecting His call of salvation, will be judged. The people. the nation, the leaders of a nation who turn their backs to Him, who blaspheme His name; who turn to idols and worship the created will be judged. What makes you think that this western hemisphere can continue denying God and escape judgment? If He allowed the Jews to be conquered, taken in exile, Jerusalem sacked the Temple demolished and expelled from their land for their idolatry from after the time of Solomon to the First Century; what makes you think He will look with special favor on America just because it calls itself a country that believes in God?

Don’t be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction. So will a nation reap what it sows. The nation that does to please its sinful nature will reap destruction.

Through Isaiah the prophet God spoke of His judgment against Jerusalem and Judah: “…People will oppress each other - man against man, neighbor against neighbor. The young man will rise up against the old, the base against the honorable … Oh my people, your guides lead you astray; they turn you from the path. ( Does this sound somewhat familiar today over 2500 years later?).  The Lord takes His place in court; He rises to judge the people. The Lord enters into judgment against the elders and leaders of His people; It is you who have ruined my vineyard…” (Gal. 6:7; & Is 3).
So, where do you stand? Who is your father?
