Amen Larry. Today's world reminds of this passage where men love evil ore than good, lying more than truth and the hope I have it God plucks them soon form the earth. We are in depraved times.
Psalms 52:2-8 (KJV) Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully. 3 Thou lovest evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness. Selah. 4 Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue. 5 God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of thy dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living. Selah. 6 The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him: 7 Lo, this is the man that made not God his strength; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness. 8 But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.
Woe to them who add house to house and join field to field, until there is no more room, so that you have to live alone in the midst of THE LAND. In my ears, THE LORD OF Hosts has sworn,' Surely many houses will become desolate, even great and fine ones, without occupants. For ten acres of Vinyard will yield only on bath( about 10.5 gallons) of wine, and a Homer of seed will yield but an ephah( about one bushel) of grain. WOE to them who rise early in the morning that they may pursue strong drink, Who stay up in the evening that wine may inflame them! Their banquets are accompanied by lyre and by harp, by tambourine and flute and by wine. But they do not pay attention to the Deeds of THE LORD, Nor do they consider The Works of HIS HANDS. Therfore MY People go into exile for a lack of knowledge, and their honorable men are famished, And their multitude is parched with thirst. Therefore Sheol has enlarged its throat and opened its mouth without measure, and Jerusalems splendor, her multitude, her din for rivalry and the jubilant within her, descend into it. So the common man will be humbled and the man of importance will be abused. But THE LORD OF Hosts Will Be Exalted in Judgment, and THE HOLY GOD Will Show HIMSELF TO BE HOLY in RIGHTEOUSNESS. Then The Lambs Will Graze in their pasture, and strangers will Eat in the waste places of the wealthy. WOE To them who drag iniquity with the cords of falsehood, and sin as if with cart ropes, Who say" Let HIM Make speed( see 2 Peter 3:4), LET HIM Hasten HIS Work that we may see it; And Let THE PURPOSE OF THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL draw near And come to pass, that we may know it!" WOE to them who call evil good and good evil, who substitute darkness frightening and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! Woe to them who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight! Woe to them who are heroes in drinking wine and valiant men in mixing strong drink, Who justify the wicked for a bribe, And Take away The Rights of The Ones who Are in The RIGHT! Therfore, as a tongue of fire consumes the stubble, And dry grass collapses into the filame, so their root will become like rot and their blossom will blow away as dust( see Matthew 3:1- 7:29); For they have rejected ME AS THE LORD OF Hosts And despised THE WORD( JESUS) OF THE HOLY ONE OF Israel......"( Isaiah 5 :8-30)
" There is a generation who curses his father And does not bless his mother. There is a generation who is pure in his own eyes, Yet is not washed from his filthiness. There is a generation- O how lofty are his eyes! And his eyelids are raised in arrogance! There is a generation whose teeth are swords And whose teeth are swords, And his jaw teeth knives, TO devour the afflicted from the earth And the needy from among men. The leech has 2 daughters, " Give, Give." There are 3 things that will not be satisfied, 4 that will not say" Enough!" Sheol, and the barren womb; Earth that is never satisfied with water, And fire that never says, " Enough!"( Unquenchable fires of hell). The eye that mocks a father and scores a mother, The ravens of The Valley will pick it out!( Ezekiel 38:1-39;:29;Matthew 23:1-25:46; Revelation 16:13-19:21),and the young eagles will eat it. There are 3 things which are too wonderful for me, 4 which I do not understand: THE WAY of an eagle in the sky, the way of the Serpent on The ROCK, the way of a ship in the middle of the sea, and the way of a man with a maid, This is the way of the adulterous woman. She eats and wipes her mouth, and says, " I Have Done NO Wrong." Under 3 things the earth quakes, and under 4 it can not bear up: Under a slave when he becomes king,And A Fool when he is satisfied with food, Under an unloved woman when she gets a husband, and A Maidservant when she supplant her mistress( Jacod means " The Supplanter"). Four things are small on the earth, but they are exceedingly wise: The Antsare not a strong people( see 2 Corinthians 12:1-10).but they prepare their food in the summer( ; see Matthew 21:1-24:51;Jude 1-25; Song of Solomon 2:8-15); The Shephanim are not mighty people, Yet they make their houses in The Rocks( see Matthew 7:13-29); The locusts have no king, yet all of them go out in ranks!( see Joel 1:1-3:21; Revelation 9:6-21); The lizard you may grasp in the hands, Yet it is in kings palaces. There are 3 things which are statelyin March, Even 4 which are stately when they walk: The Lionis Mighty among The Beasts, and Does not Retreat before any, The strutting rooster, the male Goat, also, and THE KING and HIS Army With HIM( see Revelation 19:11-21). If you have been foolish in exalting yourself Or if you have plotted evil( see Psalm 2:1-12) hand on your mouth, For the churning of milk produces butter and the " pressing" of the nose brings forth blood( The Garden of Gethsemane means " The Garden of Pressed/ Crushed GRAPES, which was the Vineyard/ Garden, outside of Jerusaem where grapes were Crushed/ pressed to make New Wine; this refers to The Wrath of GOD upon the wicked, and The making of THE NEW WINE from THE WRATH OF GOD THAT was placed on JESUS for us: see John 2:1-4' John 2:5-10; Matthew 26:1-46;Isaiah 52:1-53:12; Revelation 8:1-11:8; 11;9-14:7; 8; 14:9-13; 14:14--20
GOD will never forgive them, for GOD has given them over to Their depravity.
