If they only realized what is coming,
Maybe they would not act in that way,
There’s so much pride and rebellion,
How much longer will God’s hand stay?
The Lord is indeed so very patient,
He gives us all much time to repent,
But such foolish children that we be,
We reject the messengers He has sent.
Laughing and scoffing at the warning,
Flaunting their haughtiness in His face,
They don’t see His judgments coming,
Which will remove us from our place.
Yes, as it was in the days of Noah,
Or in wicked Sodom before her fall,
Unless we humble ourselves & repent,
There may be nothing left not at all.
“Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come . . . I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.” John 8:21, 24, KJV

“Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? . . . For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:16, 23, KJV
“The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.” 1 Corinthians 15:56, KJV
