Admin	God's Dreadful Threatenings.... Posted : 24 May, 2010 12:38 PM His dreadful threatenings! (Thomas Brooks, "Paradise Opened" 1675) Sin and sorrow, iniquity and misery�always go hand in hand. "The wages of sin is death," Romans 6:23. Every sinner is worthy of death. "Those who do such things deserve death," Romans 1:32. If God is a just and righteous God, then sin cannot absolutely escape unpunished; for it is but "a just and righteous thing with God"�to punish the sinner who is worthy of punishment. As God must be just�so He must be faithful. And if He must be faithful�then He must carry out His threatenings against sin and sinners! Look! As there is not a promise of God but shall surely take place; just so, there is not a threatening of God but shall surely take place. The faithfulness of God, and the honor of God, are as much concerned in making good of His dreadful threatenings�as they are concerned in making good of His precious promises. God has given it from His own mouth, that: "He will by no means clear the guilty;" "the soul that sins, shall surely die;" "the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him;" "He will render to every man according to his deeds." Will God abrogate His own laws�or will He dare men to sport and play with His threatenings? Will not every wise and prudent king look to the execution of their own laws? And shall not that God, who is wonderful in wisdom, and whose understanding is infinite�see all that all His laws are put in execution against offenders? Surely yes! "He will repay them for their sins and destroy them for their wickedness; the LORD our God will destroy them!" Psalm 94:23 "I will not look on you with pity or spare you; I will repay you in accordance with your conduct and the detestable practices among you. Then you will know that it is I the LORD who strikes the blow!" Ezek. 7:9 "When I sharpen My flashing sword and My hand grasps it in judgment, I will take vengeance on My adversaries and repay those who hate Me." Deuteronomy 32:41 Post Reply

It is this simple when I say Jesus, That is the word of God. When you say Jesus, you are saying, Thy truth. But I really don't want to trample the word of God underfoot, I am not interested in Calvin and his word's. Post Reply

Posted : 26 May, 2010 09:19 AM Sorry Adam for the misunderstanding, those who accept Jesus christ as their lord and savior have accepted the new covanent. true salvation makes us part of the covanent. This is all done by the blood of Jesus and our confession of him as our lord and savior. I know some churches teach it a little different, I have no problem with small differences on how it is done. I know some also require baptisms. I was once Luthern as a child. Post Reply
