and GOD is angry with the wicked
every day!" Psalm 7:11.
GOD not only detests sin, but is angry
with those who continue to indulge in it.
We have no ignorant or indifferent GOD
to deal with; HE can be angry, nay, HE
is angry today and everyday with you--
you ungodly and impenitent sinners!
The best day that ever dawns
on a sinner, brings a curse with it.
From the beginning of the year
even to its ending, there is not
an hour in which GOD'S oven is
not hot, and burning in readiness
for the wicked, who shall be as
stubble before HIM!
"If he does not repent, HE will
sharpen HIS sword; HE bends
HIS bow and makes it ready!"
Psalm 7:12.
Turn or burn is the sinner's only alternative.
sharpen HIS sword; HE bends
HIS bow and makes it ready!"
Psalm 7:12.
What blows are those which will be dealt
by that long-uplifted omnipotent arm!
GOD'S sword has been sharpening
upon the revolving stone of our daily
wickedness, and if we will not repent,
it will speedily cut us in pieces!
Turn or burn is the sinner's only alternative.
instruments of death; HE makes
HIS arrows into fiery shafts!" Psalm 7:13.
Even now GOD'S thirsty arrow longs
to wet itself with the blood of the ungodly!
HIS bow is bent, HIS aim is taken,
HIS arrow is fitted to the string--
and what, O sinner, if the arrow
should be let fly at you even now!
Remember, GOD'S arrows never
miss the mark, and are, every one
of them, "instruments of death."
Judgment may tarry, but it will not
come too late. The Greek proverb says,
"The mill of GOD grinds slowly--
but grinds to powder!"
"The sharpening of GOD'S sword
is but to give a keener edge,
that it may cut the deeper.
When GOD'S sword is sharpened--
it is to cut; and when GOD'S bow is bent--
it is to kill! Woe be to that man who
is GOD'S target!" William Secker
"It is a fearful thing to fall into
the hands of the living GOD!"
Hebrews 10:31
