What if we pretended there was no
God? That’s today’s story. After years of staggering along like a
stoned ballerina in The Nutcracker, the children of Israel stumbled upon
a Bible. It’s read to all the
people. It’s beauty spreads like buttercups
across a spring field. But it’s
too late!!! At some point they had
crossed over the line of no return.
The sobering truth is that God will not always tarry with a people. The
hearts of the people have long since died, the fertile rich soil turned to
salty flats. There’s something we should all
remember: it’s never to late until it’s too late and then it’s too late.
The horrors of a country that
decided to pretend there was no God. Too bad we can’t pretend the consequences!
Post Script: A good contemporary look at this scenario is the movie, The Book of Eli starring Denzel Washington.
