The most tremendous judgment
of God in this world is the hardening of the hearts of men.

True Gregg. We are seeing that hardening more and more, it's spoken of in Romans ch 1, and it is God's judgment against those who reject Him. The restrainer is being removed, and people are continuing to harden themselves against the truth of God's word.
ReplyDeleteThe world does not like to think of God as One who hardens hearts, or has wrath against Sin against Him, or sentences anyone to Hell. But have we lost sight that Almighty, Sovereign, Creator God is Lord of all and deserves glory, honor and praise as our Heavenly Father Maker, Providence, Sustainer, Refuge, Redeemer, and Salvation, full of love and mercy for those who repent, accept the gift of Jesus and believe by faith? Have we forgotten ... or ever really truly known ... God is Lord? This causes me to search my heart and cry to Him for help.
