God's
Justice!
"Shall not the Judge of
all the earth do right?"
Genesis 18: 25
The patient was only 53 years old. He died at 6:50 p.m.
of a massive stroke after suffering a series of seizures.
His arteries were so calcified that when tapped with a
tweezers they sounded like stone. The man had no
history of high blood pressure.
His name was Vladimir Lenin. He died in 1924,
but in 2012 a group of brilliant doctors gathered
to determine his cause of death.
Some determined he was slowly poisoned by
Stalin.
One doctor believed the culprit was high cholesterol.
The case was unsolved. If he lived another 25 years,
imagine the damage
Lenin could have wrought.
We serve a just God. He
punishes evil even if
we don’t see His justice on display right away.
While we love to sing of God’s love and mercy,
we also need His holiness, justice, and wrath.
Don’t be discouraged. Evil
will not last forever, but the
Lord and His redeemed will!
"In a moral universe God
must of necessity oppose
evil."
