Proverbs 14 v 9 reads ,'Fools make a mock at sin; but with the righteous there is favour', Charles Bridges wrote,' What! Are there such, as will count sin a sport? They have never seen the sight, never felt the weight.Look into eternity. It is thought a grave matter in heaven. It is felt so in hell'. Many make light of their sins, make excuses for their sins,but the fact is as one puts it,God does not excuse sin,but often we do, we say ,that's the way I am ,I can't help,that does not wash with God. Look at the nicest person you know, they are sinners, they may even be fooled ,that they will not go to hell,and indeed you may think that,but they will. That's the awful tragedy,the sheer folly of it all,let none us be fooled,by human niceness. In Psalm 14 v1 we read ,'The fool says in his heart ,'There is no God'.this could apply to those who believe they are not accountable to God,they are practical atheist, they don't believe God has any claim on their lives,so they live a life with disregard towards God,the Bible says they are fools just as much as those who make a mockery of sin,and they will both suffer the same consequences the judgement of God.
'Don't be a fool,be wise unto salvation,
and trust Jesus as your Saviour.'
