OK, Captain Connie. Exec Pubbie has the con.
IN
When a defendant stands before a judge, he or she is at the mercy of the court. If the defendant is innocent, the court should be a refuge. But if the defendant is guilty, we expect the court to exact punishment.
In Nahum, we see God as both a refuge and a judge. It says, The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble (1:7 niv). But it also says, He will make an end of Nineveh; he will pursue his foes into the realm of darkness (v.8 niv). Over 100 years earlier, Nineveh had repented after Jonah preached Gods forgiveness, and the land was safe (Jonah 3:10). But during Nahums day, Nineveh was plotting evil against the Lord (Nah. 1:11). In chapter 3, Nahum details Ninevehs destruction.
Many people know only one side of Gods dealings with the human race but not the other. They think that He is holy and wants only to punish us, or that He is merciful and wants only to show kindness. In truth, He is judge and refuge. Peter writes that Jesus committed Himself to Him who judges righteously (1 Peter 2:23). As a result, He bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness (v.24).
The whole truth about God is good news! He is judge, but because of Jesus, we can go to Him as our refuge.
Evening Publius; must Miss Connie leave us tonight?

Nothing but good people around here. Doesn't get any better than that.
Thank you all.
Good to see you. We’re a little shorthanded on the bridge of the Canteen, so I’ll attempt to fulfill my hosting duties as flawlessly as Rush Limbaugh if I can pull it off.
Have fun!!!!
