I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;
As one works through this chapter, we see it begin with current times and move toward eternal days.
- Verse 3, “a people that provoketh me… continually”
- Verse 17 “for behold I create new heavens and a new earth”
I take it that the chapter begins nearing the end of what we would consider current times. I see then these words, therefore, as indicative of the days in which I write.
There has never been a time in history easier to get the gospel around the world. Just my little Daily Visits with God podcast is heard currently in sixty countries around the world, many of them being restricted access nations. Truly God has “spread out His hands” today, inviting the rebellious, sinners, and unbelievers to come to Him and be saved.
But as surely as the ability to spread the gospel has increased in this time, the way those people walk has grown increasingly wicked and their thoughts, like those in the days of Noah have become “only evil continually.”[1]
One of those accusations so often leveled against Christians today is that we only believe because our parents believed. When the floods came only Noah, and his family boarded the Ark. I imagine those outside mocking them for being brainwashed. But then I imagine them crying out to be forgiven and invited in.
We’re inviting you into our spiritual family right now, before it’s too late to cry.
