Hi, when you requested God’s mercy, you did so for all. I’m sorry and it’s probably a sin, but I don’t want his mercy to fall on Socialists or those who voted for socialism this election or for those who have covered it up and called evil, good. I don’t want my Lord’s mercy distributed to them. I want them to receive his justice, better yet, his wrath.
It’s a sin most likey for me to wish this, but I do and freely admit to my guilt. Heck, I can’t even get to the place where I want to be able to wish mercy on these bastards.
then I am a sinner too cause I agree
Jesus said to his disciples,
“Things that cause sin will inevitably occur,
but woe to the one through whom they occur.
It would be better for him if a millstone were put around his neck
and he be thrown into the sea
than for him to cause one of these little ones to sin.
Be on your guard!
If your brother sins, rebuke him;
and if he repents, forgive him.
And if he wrongs you seven times in one day
and returns to you seven times saying, ‘I am sorry,’
you should forgive him.”
And the Apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.”
The Lord replied, “If you have faith the size of a mustard seed,
you would say to this mulberry tree,
‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.”
I know it's difficult. It is the most difficult thing for me too and one of the most difficult challenges for all Christians, IMO. Hating the sin but loving the sinner. I have known many godly men who could pray for the forgiveness of all kinds of sin, yet they always struggled to pray for the forgiveness of others in one or two areas unique to them.
All I can say is pray out loud that you are willing to be made willing. While your emotions may not agree with your words, you are making a conscious decision to become more Christ-like and doing the only thing you can do, i.e. confessing the Word of God. We are barely able to be saved ourselves.
1 Peter 4:18 - "And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?"
So did Jonah find himself in the same place. I'm so thankful we serve (if we choose to) a merciful God. Here is the account of Jonah's frustration with God from "The Message," by Eugene Peterson:
Jonah was furious. He lost his temper. He yelled at God, "God! I knew it—when I was back home, I knew this was going to happen! That's why I ran off to Tarshish! I knew you were sheer grace and mercy, not easily angered, rich in love, and ready at the drop of a hat to turn your plans of punishment into a program of forgiveness!
"So, God, if you won't kill them, kill me! I'm better off dead!"
God said, "What do you have to be angry about?"
But Jonah just left. He went out of the city to the east and sat down in a sulk. He put together a makeshift shelter of leafy branches and sat there in the shade to see what would happen to the city.
God arranged for a broad-leafed tree to spring up. It grew over Jonah to cool him off and get him out of his angry sulk. Jonah was pleased and enjoyed the shade. Life was looking up.
But then God sent a worm. By dawn of the next day, the worm had bored into the shade tree and it withered away. The sun came up and God sent a hot, blistering wind from the east. The sun beat down on Jonah's head and he started to faint. He prayed to die: "I'm better off dead!"
Then God said to Jonah, "What right do you have to get angry about this shade tree?"
Jonah said, "Plenty of right. It's made me angry enough to die!"
God said, "What's this? How is it that you can change your feelings from pleasure to anger overnight about a mere shade tree that you did nothing to get? You neither planted nor watered it. It grew up one night and died the next night. So, why can't I likewise change what I feel about Nineveh from anger to pleasure, this big city of more than 120,000 childlike people who don't yet know right from wrong, to say nothing of all the innocent animals?"
2 John 9-11
9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
KJV
The way I read the article, and based upon, "by their fruits, ye shall know them", these do not "bear this doctrine", so it must be obedience, and not a sin, to not want His mercy to fall upon them, rather than His wrath.
I do not intend to partake of their evil by wishing them well, or asking mercy for them.
For any of us, for many of us, it might be medicinal to suffer a catastrophe that leads to final repentance.
