Heeding and Hiding

Read:  Psalm 11 / Proverbs 18 / Ezekiel 5 /2 Cor. 4

 

Psalm 11:3,4 ~ If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do? The LORD is in his holy temple, the LORD'S throne is in heaven… his eyelids try, the children of men.

Proverbs 18:2 ~ A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.

Ezekiel 5:8 ~ Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, am against thee, and will execute judgments in the midst of thee in the sight of the nations.

2 Corinthians 4:3,4 ~ But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: in whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ… the image of God, should shine unto them.

 

Foundations of morality

Are as eternal as God’s throne,  

But fools have no delight to see

A view that contradicts their own.

 

“I am against thee,” says our God

To those who will not count the cost.

How blind are those who heed the fraud

That hides the Gospel from the lost!
