Judgement is coming. ( John 3 v 16 )

The suffering of  Judah  with its capital  588- 587 was appalling , it is reckoned that 80 percent of the towns and villages were destroyed or abandoned.Before Jerusalem fell it endured an eighteen months  siege, the suffering during that siege was horrific,with women eating their babies,the survivors of which the prophet Jeremiah was one,he was allowed to remain, but most of them had to march a thousand miles to Babylon. Why did God cause this to happen ?,well Jeremiah writes ,'the Lord was right for they had rebelled against His word. ( 1 v 18 ). There are many people who judge God for the wrongs in this world, for the suffering in this world,but the words of Abraham come echoing down to us through the ages,when he said,as he pleaded for those who might have been righteous in Sodom,''Shall not the Judge of all the earth do what is right '', ( Genesis 18 v 25 ). Yes ,whither we like it not, God is a Judge,and one day ,He will judge all the earth (Revelation 20 v 11 - 15 ) ( 2 Timothy 4 v 1 ) ,that judgement will be a righteous judgement. God sent His Son to bear the punishment  for sin on the cross,of all those who trust Him to be their Saviour.no judgement, will fall on them . Make no mistake, judgement is coming on all who reject Christ ,flee from the wrath of God, and trust Him as your Saviour , before it is to late.
