GOD DOESN'T LIKE IT

 

GOD DOESN’T LIKE IT

Ezek. 18:23 “Do you think, asks the Sovereign LORD, that I like to see wicked people die? Of course not! I only want them to turn from their wicked ways and live.” NLT

The Lord absolutely hates it when someone dies in their sin. He hates it when people have no one to save them from an eternity in hell. He hates it when He has to watch someone force their way into a godless eternity by choosing to reject Jesus as their Savior. He hates it, but there is absolutely nothing He can do to keep it from happening.

God is holy love. His love prevents Him from forcing His will upon us. He gives us the freedom of choice and the responsibilities that go with it. He will never force us to submit to Him or respond to His love. He will always love us, but will only embrace those who love Him back.

God is holy and will never allow sin in His presence. He hates sin because it’s the exact opposite of His holiness. Sin causes us to go against God’s holiness. It takes us away from God and keeps us away. Sin is the kiss of eternal death. It is the cancer of the soul and if left untreated, will cause us to spend eternity in hell with no hope of escape. The only remedy for sin is a blood transfusion with the blood of Jesus.

God has done all He can do to save us from our sins. The rest is up to us. Once we learn about Jesus dying on the cross for our sins, we are held accountable for our knowledge. We choose whether or not we let Him be our Savior. No one who has heard can escape responsibility for their choice. You choose where you will spend eternity. You have no one to blame but yourself if you miss out on heaven.

Is Jesus your Savior today?
