God is my Eagle
JEREMIAH 36 . KJV . whole chapter God has a very specific evil in mind here. The king's progeny get blasted straight off. Notice in particular how God DOES NOT say "The king's gonna suck it big time and some of his children but not those under the age of criminal responsibility" or "I will so blast this king, his yes-man and his nodders (only)" but that would be a sorta ½ baked evil suggesting a ½ baked God which is not consistent with unceasing praise for His grace and mercy, for His humility and unremitting selflessness even to death on the cross so they all copped it. Even the servants. Babies are never blameless where idolatry is concerned. God knows that and babies are obviously included with and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem just as they are included in all of God's just retributions often for no more than following a different religion.. But that's the whole point. ALL other religions are ABSOLUTELY and ONLY evil. ALL other belief systems exist ONLY and FOREVER to glorify SATAN. This message is foremost in The Bible, rammed home by God through His direct utterance, His prophets and Judges, in Psalms and Lamentations, throughout the wisdom literature, from New Testament apostles and visionaries right into the future History recorded for us in Revelation. God is pure, He cannot co-exist with sin. Sin is so terrible that God, in His mercy, cuts short the writhing He sees on the beautiful world He created so that we could praise Him and very soon will be returning to claim Us as His bride so that we can Praise Him properly. ALL followers of false religions, or of none, will be destroyed. That's when they get a taste of REAL evil because they'll all be getting MAXIMUM TORMENT which will never cease over and over and over again. Still wanna worship a ½ baked "God" or none? After following the whole chapter link, for those concerned with evidence to support claims, you can read more about God's activities in this case leading into Lamentations and Ezekiel where His concern about false beliefs and lack of being praised are made abundantly plain. His lovingkindness is not to be taken lightly, He REALLY does not like that and ALWAYS responds. Basilissa has shown HOW He responds and I hope I have shown WHY. PSALM 103 . KJV . context |
