Punishment of the wicked
indianabob:
Thank you Revilonivek,
I could not have said it better.
God does of course admonish & correct the Sons He loves; AND IT HURTS.
And it will be as you so aptly put it, with great patience and long suffering toward them; just as it is and shall continue to be with each of us.
Change is not easy, correction is not pleasant and for some it will take longer, but we have the assurance that God shall succeed in all His desire.
Can ANYTHING be too hard for God?
Gina:
Having a person examine their own words is a good form of correction/judgment.
We're to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. If what's in the mind of an individual doesn't line up with the Truth, it's alright for someone who knows better to pick it apart, examine it, and hand it back to them and say to them, "Does this make really make sense to you? Well, does it?"
The danger is not in having a person examine themselves and their words. Just the opposite is true.
If they're seeking the truth, they'll quickly come around. And I believe that's happening right here and now.

Hello Gina
Much wisdom in this statement:If what's in the mind of an individual doesn't line up with the Truth, it's alright for someone who knows better to pick it apart, examine it, and hand it back to them and say to them, "Does this make really make sense to you? Well, does it?"

How true this is my friend .I remember when i first come to bt and had all that false teaching to deal with.And as truth smacked me in the face.I quickly came around!Praise God!

Sometimes we think we're in truth, when in reality we're deluded. Only the Spirit of God can give us the ability to discern. Christendom sincerely believes they've got the truth
