How is the wrath of God being revealed today? 534-1 - 2-4

A few generations ago the sitcom was “Father Knows Best.” Today it’s more apt to be “My Two Fathers.”

We in America excel at promoting the trifecta of things that God hates:

• Abortion (murder) of the unborn
• The growing acceptance of homosexuality
• Throwing Israel under the bus.

Perhaps rather than then the full wrath of God, I would suggest that we are under God’s judgment and that He is removing/ has removed His hedge of protection from us. Nevertheless, as we on planet earth sink further into “anything goes” can the wrath of God be far away. One can almost hear the hoof-beats of the Four Horsemen. Given the extremes of weather, natural disasters, wars and more; judgment indeed.

Romans 1:18, “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;” We are without excuse!

Romans 1:21-23, “Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves.”

In my opinion this deals mostly with an individual’s sin, homosexuality. However, when we as a society approve of homosexuality this becomes a sin of society. The acceptance of homosexuality didn’t work out well for Sodom and Gomorrah.

John P. McTernan has written a very interesting book; “As America Has Done to Israel.” Time and again we have pressured Israel to give up the land given to them by God.

"The Perfect Storm" in 1991 pretty much coincided with the Madrid Peace Process in which the elder President Bush was very clear that Israel was required to surrender parts of her covenant land for peace. His own home was affected by the storm.

The Israel withdrawal from Gaza in 2005 was done in the hope that this would lead to peace. Rather than peace the withdrawal provided a nearby missal launching pad. Land for peace has never resulted in any lasting peace as the hated towards Israel is embedded in the Islamic psyche. The United States pressured Israel to withdraw from Gaza and that withdrawal seems to have coincided with Hurricane Katrina. Many times the United States seemed to come under God’s judgment when we bully Israel.

Tornados, hurricanes, earthquakes, floods, famine, wildfires, drought, horrific diseases such as Ebola, Aids, constant warfare throughout much of the planet, etc. are, in my opinion, a harbinger of worse to come. We need a planet wide revival. Hopefully we have not passed the point of no return.

Added Later:

40 years and millions of babies aborted since "Roe v. Wade."
This is from an email I received today:
At the National Prayer Breakfast, February 3, 1994 Mother Teresa said:
"The greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion...
It is a war against the child, a direct killing of the innocent...murder by the mother herself.
If we accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill?...
Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love, but to use violence."
Very wise words indeed.
