DAD'S RAMBLINGS – The Choice
Romans 2:8-9
"... but to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness – indignation and wrath, tribulation and anguish, on every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek."
I don't like to think about hell. It is such a horrible place of torment and anguish where God's wrath and indignation for sin is revealed. Paul did not try to gloss over God's judgment by using the rationale that "God loves us too much to send us to hell." God does not send anyone to hell. Each person makes choices to either obey or disobey God's truth. Many are "self-seeking," satisfying their own desires to obey unrighteousness. Then they live with the consequences of God's indignation, wrath, tribulation and anguish. We all have that choice. I choose to live by God's truth in order to experience "glory, honor, and peace" (vs. 10) in eternity. It is not a difficult choice, considering the end results.
TODAY'S THOUGHT: Each person has the choice to obey or disobey God's truth.
Have a truth-choice day. Love you.
