They seek to banish such a God from their thoughts!
(Arthur Pink)
“You have done these things, and I kept silent. You thought that I was just like you! But I will rebuke you and accuse you to your face.” Psalm 50:21
The only God against whom the natural man is not at enmity–is one of his own imagination! The deity whom he professes to worship, is not the living God–for He is truth and faithfulness, holiness and justice, as well as being gracious and merciful.
It is a god of their own devising–and not the God of Holy Writ, whom the ungodly believe in!
“They say: How can God know? Does the Most High even know what is happening?” Psalm 73:11
They would strip Deity of His omniscience if they could!
The wicked wish that there might be . . .
no Witness of their sins,
no Searcher of their hearts,
no Judge of their deeds!
They seek to banish such a God from their thoughts!
What a proof that “the carnal mind is enmity against God!”
Such is the portion awaiting the lost:
eternal separation from the fountain of all goodness;
everlasting punishment;
torment of soul and body;
endless existence in the Lake of Fire;
forever locked up with demons and the vilest of the vile;
every ray of hope excluded; and
utterly crushed and overwhelmed by the wrath of a sin-avenging God!
“Consider this, you who forget God–or I will tear you to pieces, with none to rescue!” Psalm 50:22
