The Bible warns that everyone who does not believe will learn with a shudder that God is indeed angry. The next realization will be that its personal, that God is angry with me. By then it will be too late. I seek through the Holy Spirit to introduce you to the ramifications of biblical truth to your personal eternity. This is universal to all people of any era, any race or color, any language, any culture, and any nation. God is in total control whether we can see it or not. With God there is only one racethe human race. As individual human beings created by God, we all will face the Last Judgment. Do you want your wages from God, what you have earned? I dont! For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 6:23). I have earned death, but instead of my wages God gives me life as his free gift, which I have not earned and can never earn. Now to him who works the reward is not reckoned of grace but of debt. But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness . . . Blessed is he whose iniquity is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin (Romans 4:45, 78). For my eternal life, I need mercy, not justice! I need Christs righteousness in my account, not my own bankrupt ersatz righteousness from fig leaves that I try to palm off as good works from my own sinful heart! I need the heart-lung transplant described in Ezekiel 36:2627, not some superficial attempt to improve my appearance!
