When God Puts the Hammer Down
There have been times when God has seen it fit to deal judgment to mankind. The first judgment was when Eve and Adam ate the fruit form the tree of knowledge. As sin entered the world the paradise of Eden could not house any dark stains. Mankind quickly forgot the graces of God and became corrupt and evil. Later God found that in order to rid the world of such corruption he must rain down judgment on the whole of the earth. The flood was a earthly do over, which as far as humanity goes, we don’t deserve more chances yet Gods grace always comes.
Genesis 19:4-5“Now before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, both old and young, all the people from every quarter, surrounded the house. 5 And they called to Lot and said to him, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us that we may know them carnally.” God planned to destroy Sodom, but Abraham pleaded with God to spare the city if any were righteous. God agreed to Abrahams plea and sent two angels When the city surrounded the house with what appears to be a custom of the city to rape newcomers to the city, God’s angels found one man’s family worthy of saving. That family was spared and sent away prior to the destruction of city. God’s wrath was rained down on Sodom like a cosmic hammer.
We cannot expect to live our lives without consequence anyway we want to. We have to assume that judgment will come when we get to the point where God doesn’t believe there is a way to save us. While we are saved through grace, there comes a time when purging fire must come. When the United States was founded it was done so as a God fearing nation. If we continue to move down a path of sinful, hatred, life of flesh, we cannot expect to not see judgment of the Lord.
When I think of the idea of a hammer falling down upon mankind, I think of the scene in The Avengers where Thor and Captain America are fighting in the woods. Thor dropped Mjolnir down upon Cap’s shield an explosion of energy sent a shockwave through the forest dropping trees all around them. At some time a tipping point will come when we will have to choose to fight for what is right, or fall to the hammer of the Lord. The choice will be ours, but time of course will tell. God may just let us destroy ourselves. The only hope we truly have is Jesus Christ.
