The Wrath of God!

“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness.” Romans 1:18

When I was young we had records. There were no cassettes, CD’s. We had records that spun at 45 rpm’s. Each of those records had a hit song on one side and a less popular song on the flipside. Romans 1:18 is the flipside of mankind’s view of God. We like all the stuff about love and the sacrifices He made for us. We like the healing and feeding. It is easy to talk about. But God is also righteous and will judge all unrighteousness.

For the first half or Romans 1, Paul lays out the power of Christ for salvation. The second half of the chapter is about the power of God for judgment. Paul pulls no punches as he lists what God hates. He pulls no punches on the just judgment of God against sin. We need to know both halves of Romans 1. We need to let the world know that there is a flip side to their view of God.

Dear Father, Help me not to be silent about Your power to judge as well as save. Let me not be silent about sin. Amen.
