"The wall of Babylon shall fall. My people, go ye out of the midst of her, and deliver ye every man his soul from the fierce anger of the Lord" (Jeremiah 51:44,45). "Save yourselves from this untoward generation" (Acts 2:40). "Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth He yet find fault? For who hath resisted His will? Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? Hath not the potter power over the clay?" (Romans 9:19-21).
God has surely made it known:
To see one lost is not His will.
Yet as long as we are on the throne,
We may resist Him still.
The vessel has no power to say,
"Why was I made thus?"
But we are not a lump of clay;
That's not how God made us.
For we may choose to love or hate;
We may turn away from God.
Yes, we may still procrastinate,
And scorn His judgment rod.
The choice is left to every man
To trust in Jesus' name.
And those spurn His perfect plan,
Have but themselves to blame.
