“Why God is Moved to Jealousy” Series

Babylon… a rod of divine discipline. For the eyes of faith that sees a grand design, Babylon is also God’s gym to exercise, stretch and perfect the most important skill of life—trust in the Sovereign God. It’s not for the faint of heart but it’s been reserved for those in it over the long haul. When bad times come, you’d want to be numbered with them.

“Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely” (Lord Acton, 1887). Here’s another deadly potion when unbridled power and sinful pride mix. It smells corruption! It shows in our treatment of our fellowmen and God Himself! The LORD exposes it for what it is and doesn’t mince words to show His utter disgust. The guilty will be punished indeed (1:11)

Arguably the one single issue that baffles our minds is the question of human suffering. Why would a good and loving God allow suffering? Why does it seem that God allows the good guy to suffer and the really bad guy succeeds? Our confusion is shared not just by modern theologians, but also by Habakkuk, one of the LORD’s prophets. Like him, we try hard to make sense of suffering and beg God for answers. And when He shows up, it’s not the kind we would normally hope for.

The LORD jealously guards the authentic worship of His covenant people. Our persistent pseudo-faith, however, prompts an 11th hour appeal from the LORD because the only alternative is doom. We’ve seen it happen before. It will happen again very soon—only far greater, deeper, and fiercer. It’s a warning of the LORD’s wrath against false loyalties and a warming of the LORD’s call to return to pure worship.

One of life’s saddest and most bitter words to hear are these: “It’s terminal!” Health is yielded; hope’s been exhausted. Patience has run out, and there’s only the dying seconds to perdition. When God’s vengeance gets underway, the ensuing drama is unbearable.

It isn’t hard to imagine the extent of cruelty we can get involved in. The Bible repeatedly portrays a sinister pattern that leads one to fierceness. But the end is predictable. God hates it and will not let it go unaccounted for.

Marriage has two bodyguards: love and jealousy! Love nurtures and jealousy protects a marriage. Like a marriage covenant, the LORD sustains and defends our exclusive relationship with Him. Unlike man’s, God’s jealousy isn’t fickle but predictable.

"Gather, Pray, Go" Series

Life’s only constant is change. But there are some things that should not and dare not change. In Jesus’ life, we get a glimpse of these inexorable stuff.  A. W. Tozer wrote, “…life, for all its apparent complexities, is at bottom very simple indeed if we could only realize it. Thank God, only a few things matter. The rest are incidental and unimportant.”

What do Burt Bacharach, Cat Stevens, and Freddie Aguilar have in common? They’ve written songs in harmony with the lessons of a powerful story Jesus told—the prodigal son. When we read the parable once again, we’ll be surprised that the main point isn’t the son, but the prodigal father!
