We have come this morning to the place where we will clearly see the Righteous acts of God in judgment and mercy in relation to Judah and Jerusalem. And we are meant to apply it to ourselves. This is a chapter which shows God's recompense and reward. God's judgments upon unrepentant people begin in this life, and they do not end in eternity. As terrible as the events of this chapter are, it is still worse after death for all who will not repent. So too, God's mercy and grace begin in this life and they do not end forever for those who put their trust in Jesus Christ. There is the reward of the righteous for their faith, and there is the recompense of the wicked for their unbelief and their evil deeds. We want to learn today what God is really like. We want to behold His Righteous Acts of Justice and Mercy; His Righteous Acts of rewarding people according to their works. Our God acts with a perfectly righte0us and deliberate wisdom when He brings judgments upon unrepentant sinners, and when He rewards the faith of the Righteous. O that we will regard Him as our Glorious God; the One whose work is perfect and whose mercy is sure. There are 3 Major Acts of Recompense and Reward which are pictured for us in the lives of 3 men in this passage.
