Colossians 3:6

6 For [dia] which things' sake [hos] the wrath [orge] of God [theos] cometh [erchomai] on [epi] the children [huios] of disobedience: [apeitheia] KJV-Interlinear

6 For it is on account of these things that the wrath of God will come, NASB

Wrath here, represents the justice of God coming in phenomenal fury, the likes of which no creature has ever seen.

The reason that Gods justice is coming, is because there are those who pursue disobedience, obstinacy, rebelliousness.These are the same qualities that the angels maintained, who rebelled against God, long ago.

And so the typical human characteristic is to hold firm with their opinions, despite generations of obvious limitations and failures in human affairs.

Eph. 2:2

2 in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience. NASB

Rom. 1:18

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, NASB

Satan is the author of lies and the promoter of all evil. However, Satan only initiated the pattern of evil. Humanity, with his rejection of truth, steps right in and promotes evil very well without any encouragement or prodding from Satan.

All ungodliness, all unrighteousness, all lies, all evil as it were, are an attempt, whether consciously or not, to suppress truth. Simply by ignoring truth, simply by being indifferent to truth, or by being more vocal or antagonistic toward truth, all of these are on equal terms in their opposition toward truth.

You do not have to be a serial killer, a Hitler, a terrorist, or up to your eyes in crime, in order to be a disciple of evil.The churches, governments, celebrities of the world, are full of self-righteous evil promoters, focused on their own agenda, and are totally indifferent toward Gods truth and plan. That is more evident in our current day, than ever before, because of the swiftness with which information can travel these days.

The world is saturated with anti-truth philosophies, and beliefs, and opinions so much so, that even the media takes up the promotion of falsehoods without any analysis or questioning, and the masses of people believe virtually anything that hits the airwaves or is accepted as the popular view.

Truth, preserves life, the environment, prosperity, security and ultimately happiness.

All rejection of truth, no matter how harmless it may seem, is a rejection and destruction to everything, repeat everything, that is good. Even harmlessness is one of the more popular arguments used to justify rejection of truth, or alternate lifestyles, or alternate views as they are often called.

And it is because of this maintained attitude, and refusal to see the errors of their ways, that Gods wrath, Gods justice, or judgment, is coming.

The word for coming, erchomai, means to be already on its way.

Judgment is coming, and it is coming with phenomenal fury.Its arrival is already set into motion.No matter what man wants to think about himself, or of his abilities, or his outlook on life or the future, it is all based on lies, and lies are never supported by facts, and views held up by nothing, have no option but to collapse into oblivion.

The only things that hold this world together are the believers who pursue truth in their life. It does not take many people to keep the world afloat.The flood did not come until Noah and his family of only eight people, boarded the Ark. Then and only then, did perhaps tens of millions or more, die.

Lot was only a single person, and yet Sodom and the cities of the valley were not destroyed until he left the city.A promise kept for Abraham.

Today, we presumably have millions of believers worldwide, so our world is reasonably safe, but not immune to hard times.And while we have many warnings of swine flu, of bird flu, of aids, of terrorists, of economic downturns, and many more warning signs of the disobedience (stubborn rejection) by humanity, sooner or later, people will either change or the hard times will only get worse.

Now is the time to post a prayer.
