 God will Judge All Who Have Lived with No Sense of Sin ㅡ

 “Slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and women: but come not near any man on whom is the mark; and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the ancient men which were before the house.” (Ezekiel 9:6)

 Here we see that the church—the Lord’s sanctuary—was the first to feel the stroke of the wrath of God.

 The ancient men, those to whom God had given great light and who had stood as guardians of the spiritual interests of the people, had betrayed their trust.

 Times have changed. These words strengthen their unbelief, and they say: The Lord will not do good, neither will He do evil.

 He is too merciful to visit His people in judgment. Thus “Peace and safety” is the cry from men who will never again lift up their voice like a trumpet to show God’s people their transgressions and the house of Jacob their sins.

 These dumb dogs that would not bark are the ones who feel the just vengeance of an offended God. Men, maidens, and little children all perish together.

 The great Searcher of hearts knoweth every sin committed in secret by the workers of iniquity.

 These persons come to feel secure in their deceptions and, because of His long-suffering, say that the Lord seeth not, and then act as though He had forsaken the earth.

 But He will detect their hypocrisy and will open before others those sins which they were so careful to hide.
