Purge!


Deuteronomy 24: 7
You must purge he evil from among you.

As a part of the 2013 WCF experiment, some folks are reading the Bible cover to cover.
I just finished reading the book of Deuteronomy the other day, and I am amazed at the times this same verse comes up over and over again.
You must purge the evil from among you.”
It seems to be a recurring theme.

For some reason, it appears that God hates evil.
But as we gaze into our world today, it seems there is a complete tolerance toward evil.
I wonder why that is?

What if those who tolerate evil, find out in the end, that they were wrong?
They will spend eternity in inescapable punishment, and separated from their God.

I don’t want in any way to risk that.
There is so much to lose, and so little to gain by entertaining evil.

This isn’t a message of judgment, this is a message of truth.
And the truth shall make you free!
It always has, and it always will.

What is it, that you need to purge today?
