Today we continue in the book of Psalms for another day.
“How long, Lord? Will you be angry forever?” – Psalm 79:5
The answer is in the question. Forever.
“Do not hold against us the sins of past generations;” – Psalm 79:8
This is God’s MO. Punish the descendants for several generations.
“Pay back into the laps of our neighbors seven times the contempt they have hurled at you, Lord. Then we your people, the sheep of your pasture, will praise you forever; from generation to generation we will proclaim your praise.” – Psalm 79:12-13
Yes, be hateful to other people and we will praise you!
What did we learn? God is angry and jealous. Should you worship an angry and jealous being? Hell no!
