Acts 13:40-41
“40 Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets;
41 Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you.”
In every age there have been who have scoffed at the preaching of God's Word. We see it especially in the days leading up to the captivity of Israel and Judah in the Old Testament and again in the New Testament as the Apostles and preachers were sent out by the first churches. Even in our own time we see people who scoff and the warnings from God's Word. And though the men God uses to preach His message are always in the minority, even in their own circles, God gives them the strength to stand strong and gives them the truth He wants the people to hear. But often times they refuse to hear. So wrapped up in their own sin of pride they refuse the very Word of God they claim to believe.
The same warnings preached by the Prophets and the Apostles must be preached today. Even in our time of despair. The Lord's warnings are the same. Repent of your wicked ways and follow the Lord!!!
The message is still the same. God's Word does not change. Our Lord is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Praise ye the Lord!!!
