I Will Repay

Heb 10:30,31 For we know him who said, "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," and again, "The Lord will judge his people." It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

The quotes are from Deut 32:35,36 and Ps 135:14 concerning God's attitude towards straying Israel. The New Testament uses the same rhetoric with regards to Christians. "For I do not want you to be ignorant of the fact, brothers, that our forefathers were all under the cloud and that they all passed through the sea. They were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. They all ate the same spiritual food and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ. Nevertheless, God was not pleased with most of them; their bodies were scattered over the desert. ..." 1Cor 10:1-5

And likewise in Jesus's teachings. For example he ends his parable of the unforgiving servant saying, "In anger his master turned him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed. This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother from your heart." Mat 18:34,35

Many alleged Christians will be disillusioned on that day. Jesus said, "Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’" Mt 7:22,23 Like concerning some woman in a church who called herself a prophetess yet led Christians into sexual immorality (not uncommon today) he says, "I will cast her on a bed of suffering, and I will make those who commit adultery with her suffer intensely, unless they repent of her ways. I will strike her children dead. Then all the churches will know that I am he who searches hearts and minds, and I will repay each of you according to your deeds." Rev 2:20-23 May those Christians today whose teaching leads God's servants into sexual immorality suffer a similar fate. "And if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to be thrown into the sea with a large millstone tied around his neck." Mr 9:42
