So many years ago, pastors and presidents would call for days of repentance, fasting, and prayer when disaster struck. But those days are long gone. When the Tower of Siloam fell or when fires struck Maui, Jesus would say, “Unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.” Does that sound compassionate to you, or does the present age define compassion wrongly? Our response first is the fear of God, and then repentance, and faith, and an increased awareness of His judgements and mercies.
