Battle lines
There is an animus between two groups of people that runs deeper then any political party lines. It runs to the dividing of soul and spirit.
Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
The Word of God, our Lord Jesus Christ is winnowing his harvest. He is making clear he who lives by His Holy Word and he who does not.
Matthew 3: 12 His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor, gathering his wheat into the barn and burning up the chaff with unquenchable fire.
It is simple enough to see those that choose to live Godly lives, submitting to the Lordship of Jesus Christ, continuing to seek the good in a world that has gone so bad are children of the King.
Those that insist on going their own way, insisting on having their “rights” that are opposed to God’s word are children of the evil one.
There is a tipping point, a point in time when the cup of God’s indignation will have reached its limit, it will be full to the point of no return.
Revelation 14: the same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out unmixed into the cup of His indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.
We are dangerously close to this point, if we have not reached it already. It is only by our Lord Jesus’ Grace and Mercy that we are not destroyed.
What to do at this point? If we are in God’s will, following his Word to the best of our ability, living and being led by his dear Spirit, fear not.
The Lord knows those who belong to him, his winnowing fork is true and there will be no error.
Revelation 22: Let the one who does wrong continue to do wrong; let the vile person continue to be vile; let the one who does right continue to do right; and let the holy person continue to be holy.”
When the winnowing comes, the gathering of the wicked, heed the words of the prophet Isaiah
Isaiah 26: 20 Go, my people, enter your rooms
and shut the doors behind you;
hide yourselves for a little while
until his wrath has passed by.
21 See, the Lord is coming out of his dwelling
to punish the people of the earth for their sins.
The earth will disclose the blood shed on it;
the earth will conceal its slain no longer.
