I find myself praying, “How long, oh God. How long will you allow these to mock and profane Your Holy name? How long will You show Your mercy and withhold Your judgment?”

How is it that I am literally sickened by the actions of my own government that seeks to profane the holy.

Agreed. Every word.

[Olog-hai]

The government won’t go unpunished.

I ran across these verses last week, and was reminded by your post.

I had written “WOW” in the margin by verse 6 sometime in the past. And I said WOW, again last week. Verse 8 is good, too.

2Th 1:6

Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;

2Th 1:7

And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,

2Th 1:8

In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:

2Th 1:9

Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;

2Th 1:10

When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed ) in that day.
