Excellent commentary by my friend and brother in the ministry,

While our word continues in indifference towards God, we can rest assured that His judgement does not slumber. We see the increasing effects of sin as it continues to pollute even our local assemblies. This generation of relativism and “Dr. Phil” philosophy continues to grow evermore in love with itself, as it hardens to the law of God. Whatever shall come of our present culture? A sure judgement. Isaiah 13: 11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogance of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible. There is coming a day in which the proud and haughty hearts of this wicked generation shall glare into the fiery judgement which is our God. They will plea with unmoving words before His throne of indignation, only to be met with a great and fiery wrath that man cannot begin to imagine. They might live indifferent now, and enjoy the temporary hedonistic lifestyles of self pleasure, but the day of His wrath approaches. Corporate worship in His assemblies have been forsaken for days of pleasure and leisure mixed with the intoxication of the wine of this world. The fear of the Lord has become a fleeting mark among this generation which pronounces a greater curse upon itself with each day of increasing wickedness. Homes are devoured by our adversary as we claim the empty words of modern psychologists to build the foundation of our excuses for our behaviors. Yet, as we continue indifferent, the Lord’s word rings ever true... Isaiah 13: 11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogance of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible. This generation has concerned itself with the base carnal pleasures of sexual fulfillment and carnal gratification, yet His judgement does not slumber. If He spared not the angels of old, or the cities of the wicked, how shall we escape His wrath today? With lifestyles of self service and greed, how can this generation expect to escape to great a damnation. As coal adds greater heat to the flames of a burning oven, so our generation adds greater condemnation upon itself through indifference. While it might remain in its daily wanderings through filth and smut we can be sure of these words... Isaiah 13: 11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogance of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible. Oh God, bring unto our generation a true sorrow that we might be lead unto repentance. Break our haughty spirits, and covetous hearts that we might escape such great damnation. Bring the Spirit of peace that we might escape the violence of our own wickedness. Wrought within us a respect of life before another unborn is massacred upon the altar of selfishness. Grant to us repentance of sin, and faith in the Righteous Lord, Jesus the Christ, before it is eternally too late.
