The Word of The Day
Those Who Do Not Understand
The biggest shame I see today are those who take a stand only on one of the sides of God's nature. Some only see God as angry, maybe because they had something happen to them and are not able to see that it was their fault and they needed a reason to blame someone else. God is a good whipping boy and place the blame on them.
br> Yes, in the old God allowed the world to see His anger, and in the end He will also, but grace is a period of a time where His anger is not released. The shame here is the people who believe in the anger of God have not read John 3:17.
John 3
17. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
In the Literal Bible instead of condemn it is judge.

Remember Mary who was found in the act of adultery and brought to Him. He said, "The first who is without sin cast the first stone." He was without sin, but He did not stone her.
The problem is legalism. The shame is most do not even realize, even when told, that they are too heavy handed in the law.
