English Christian Song | "God's Judgment and Chastisement Are to Save Man"
June 19, 2024
I
God has come to work on earth in order to save corrupt mankind.
Otherwise, He would certainly not have come to do His work in person.
In the past, His means of salvation involved showing the utmost love and mercy,
such that He gave His all to Satan in exchange for the whole of mankind.
The present is nothing like the past:
The salvation bestowed upon you today occurs at the time of the last days
during the classification of each according to kind;
the means of your salvation is not love or mercy, is not love or mercy,
but chastisement and judgment, in order that man may be more thoroughly saved.
II
Thus, all that you receive is chastisement, judgment, and merciless smiting,
but know this: In this heartless smiting there is not the slightest punishment.
Regardless of how harsh God's words might be,
what befall you are but a few words that might appear utterly heartless to you,
might appear utterly heartless to you,
and no matter how angry God might be,
what rain upon you are still words of teaching,
and He does not mean to harm you,
He does not mean to harm you or put you to death, or put you to death.
Is this not all fact? Is this not all fact?
III
Righteous judgment is brought to purify man,
and heartless refinement is done to cleanse them;
harsh words or chastening are both done to purify
and are for the sake of salvation.
What have you to say in the face of such chastisement and judgment?
Have you not always enjoyed salvation, from start to finish?
You have seen God incarnate
and realized His almightiness and wisdom,
and realized His almightiness and wisdom;
in addition, you have experienced repeated smiting and discipline.
However, have you not also received supreme grace?
IV
Are your blessings not greater than those of anyone else?
Your graces are more bounteous
even than the glory and riches enjoyed by Solomon!
Think about it, think about it:
If God's intention in coming were not to save you,
could your days have lasted so long?
Could your days have lasted so long?
If His goal were merely to punish you,
then why would He have become flesh and embarked upon such a great enterprise,
and embarked upon such a great enterprise?
Could punishing you mere mortals
not simply be done by uttering a single word,
by uttering a single word?
Would God still need to destroy you after purposely condemning you?
Do you still not believe these words of God?
Do you still not believe these words of God?
