…31: And he said, "Now behold, I have ventured to speak to the Lord; suppose twenty righteous men are found there?" And He said, "I will not destroy it on account of the twenty."
32: Then he said, "Oh may the Lord not be angry, and I shall speak only this once; suppose ten are found there?" And He said, "I will not destroy it on account of the ten."
33: As soon as He had finished speaking to Abraham the LORD departed, and Abraham returned to his place.
From my perspective, targeted and limited wrath, frankly.
What is happening here in this country is Rapture level magnitude.
I still retain hope, but it’s going to take action on the part of God fearing patriots.
Ah, I often think of that. God always saves a remnant. However, when it comes to child sacrifice, God warned Israel about it before they went into the promised land. Human sacrifice was practiced here, in ohio, and, of course, by the Aztecs and Mayans.
Deuteronomy 9:5 “It is not for your righteousness or for the uprightness of your heart that you are going to possess their land, but it is because of the wickedness of these nations that the Lord your God is driving them out before you, in order to confirm the oath (word) which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, & Jacob.”
Deuteronomy 12:29-32...”when the Lord your God cuts off before you the nations which you are going in to dispossess, and you dispossess them and dwell in their land, beware that you are not ensnared to follow them (after them), after they are destroyed before you, and that you do not inquire after their gods, saying, ‘How do these nations serve their gods, that also may do likewise?’ You shall not behave thus toward the Lord your God, for every abominable act which the Lord hates they have done for their gods; for they even burn their sons and daughters in the fire to their gods. Whatever I command you, you shall be careful to do, you shall not add to nor take away from it.”
Deuteronomy 18:9 -12...When you enter the land which the Lord your God gives you, you shall not learn to imitate (do according to) the detestable things of those nations. There shall not be formed among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who practices witchcraft, one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, or one who casts a spell, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead. For whoever does these things is detestable to the Lord; and because of these detestable things the Lord your God will drive them out before you.
Judgment came upon Israel when they did all these things. It was delayed by the king’s repentance, with his grandson’s revival. However the LORD God did not forgive the NATION of Israel. 2 Kings 24:3&4. Israel was invaded and Lamentations was written.
Problem today is that there are only 6 nations where abortion is ILLEGAL. So it isn’t only us. It will be 40 years for Israel in 2016. The US has the most liberal child sacrifice laws. Anytime, any age, any where, and body parts sold. Capitalism at its finest/s.
Question is, are you prepared to do as David when faced with his sin and put our nation in the hands of God so He can do what is right?
