A Good Reminder


Revelation 16:5-7 KJV
And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus.
For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.
And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.

Everything the angels know about grace, they know from watching God's grace at work in people on this earth. But the angels have no false view of God's grace. They are not, as some religionists and careless people, foolish enough to believe that God's grace is God's only quality. They see God in the fullness of His glory and they see that He is true and righteous and just as well as He is merciful and gracious.

We are not privy to all that the angels see but we have the blessing of the Bible to grant us glimpses into glory. Wise would be the man who enjoys the grace and mercy of God while remembering He is just and righteous in judgments.
