Putin on judgement day

[Endangered]

Reports from Ukrayne are very disturbing :
Woman being raped by soldiers.
Civilians executed in the head.
Children killed.
Hospitals and apartment buildings attacked.
Mass graves of civilians.
During our lives we may or may not recieve justice for or actions. But God will make sure EVERYONE recieves justice. For every evil act. And there will be no lawyer running interference. Each of us will be on our own.
I've never killed anyone or raped any woman. But I still have a bunch of sins to account for. I have asked for forgiveness sincerely. But I still committed the sins.
Someone like Putin that has authorized the killing of innocent people and permitted rapes and executions will have a very, very long list of sins to answer for. And his punishment will last for eternity.
Muslim assassins and Stalin and Hitler and Pol Pot all will face God's justice.
The certainty of judgement day is a huge brake on my desire to sin.

God doesnt delight in the death of the wicked...there is always hope for evil ppl to get saved. Think of the many evil ppl in leadership, those brainwashing children in schools, etc. Everyone, no matter how big or small their sins, without Jesus will burn in hell.

Yep even the infamous "Son of Sam" serial killer repented of his sins and murders that he committed and came to Christ

But when we do sin praise God we have a savior, Jesus who set us free from sin and death, all our sins are washed away, as our advocate Jesus mediates on our behalf, those who ignore Jesus and God's plan of salvation and who are not born again have no advocate and are under wrath.

So did one of The Manson girls..don't remember her name..but she was a brunette..long hair..until she shaved it during his trial..she wrote a book about her salvation ..I believe she's still in prison..but she loves her Lord..

 

[Jojo4124]

I pray that God knocks evil ppl off their horse...like with Saul/Paul....and that they'd choose to repent!!!

I agree it is never too late until you take your last breath. If they don't accept they will spend eternity in hell. I those who are not saved will do so before it is too late.

I love testimonies like that.

LOL Son of Sam is the same, he was a website now called "Son of Hope" where he actually has a statement of apology for his crimes and has diary entries of how he faith gives him strength to endure his life sentence and t minister to others.

I stumbled across his testimony a few years back, very strong in his belief in Jesus as his Savior.

It was Susan Atkins, who passed away in 2009 after losing a battle to cancer. I haven't read it, but the book she wrote was published in 1977 and is called Child of Satan, Child of God. Tex Watson also professes to being a Christian.

I remember a very wise pastor once saying that believers were going to shocked to see some people who actually made it to heaven they didn't think would be there, and also shocked at not seeing others they thought would be there.

I prayed for Arafat's salvation until the day I heard he had died..I doubt he was saved in the end..but I held out hope to the bitter end..there are those that I truely want to see in hell..he was one of them..when those feelings come, God works on my heart..case in point..my ex..long before our divorce he made me madder than I'd ever been in my adult life..believe me I prayed for his death and told God I wanted him in hell right then..it took God a month to work that out of me.. then one day I realized no true member of The Body Of Christ wants anyone to go to hell, so slowly the anger lifted..it was in baby steps but eventually I fitfully told God..haven's such a big place I'm sure I could go eternity and never bump inro him..so yeah Lord keep him alive til he gets saved..then let him die..nowdays..we are on amicable terms and I am a much stronger and more mature Christian than I was all those years ago and I wouldn't mind living next door to him..I don't mind saying it was a long road getting to this point..

Yeah..I've heard that preached as well..I think Hal Lindsey once gave that a mention..

This is one of my troubles don't want these people to be saved.

God humbled me one day. He told me to pray for my enemies, that they would humble themselves n get saved. I knew I must obey the One I call Lord, even if my feelings fought it. Then God showed me an image of me in heaven, meeting my enemies up there who did get saved as a result of my prayers. My first reaction was to recoil. Then I repented. Who am I but a sinner saved by grace, just like them? If God says He wants everyone saved then I must want it too.

I grew up in a strict RCC home. Sins were weighted by human opinion...of course murderers and narcissists who cause so much pain were deemed almost not worth praying for. Ppl who lie or look on someone with lust (Jesus said that is adultery) or who is just a little greedy (Jesus says that is idolotry) or who curses a brother (Jesus says that is akin to murder) just teensy lies are "better" sins.

Truth is, a liar or even a "good person" will end up in Hell if they arent saved along with the "big" sinners who arent saved. Jesus died for all who were sinners.

For me, I needed God's correction regarding my attitude about meeting ppl in Heaven who have harmed me here on earth. I want to not feel hesitation when I see them there. I want to praise God even more because of His amazing grace!! God's ways n thoughts are higher than ours...His sense of justice and what is fair differs than ours sometimes.

The prodigal son's brother was angry that his brother was forgiven. His father corrected his attitude.

I am not saying you have a tude! I am just saying I understand the human nature of wanting to see sinners punished. But then, without Jesus, that would include me!

God says to pray for our enemies, and EVEN do kind things for them. I think if we really understood Hell we wouldnt want anyone to go there.

We are to visit those in prison with the gospel, for ex. God doesnt say to not witness to prisoners who did horrible things.

Peter was rebuked by God for only wanting to witness to Jews. God doesnt want us to decide whether some ppl are "worthy" to hear the gospel. God wants everyone to be saved, and for all of us to rejoice for eachother...we are all only saved by God's generous grace!!!

God is fair and just and, doesn't want anyone to be lost forever.

His ways are not our ways and His thoughts are not our thoughts.

Our human mind and sense of justice is not the same as the Father's is.

Remember, all sin, is disobedience to God and, if he were to refuse salvation to any of these despots and dictators if they come to Him in a fully repentant, humbled, genuine manner, then we're in danger of the same justice.

I understand where you're coming from though, but Jesus said to forgive our enemies and, whilst this is very difficult for us, in fact it proves how much He loves us, as He forgives all of us of everything, just for the asking.

He even went to the Cross to guarantee it, after being horrifically tortured and falsely accused and tried.

Your right I forgive not judge, not up to me, but I do have an opinion.

If justice were left to us, based on what we observe in others behavior, nobody would be saved. And yes, when I say “others behavior” I also know this includes others looking at me.

I don't want anyone to be punished forever, but I really hope some like Hilary get at least a little justice.
