Who are the wicked? I am glad you asked this question, for God said: You are…yes if you have not truly repented (turned from sin) and believed the gospel of Jesus Christ by obeying His words. 

 

Genesis 8:21: For the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth

 

Isaiah 64:6: But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousness are as filthy rags; and we do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities (wickedness), like the wind, have taken us away.

 

Romans 3:23: For ALL have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.

 

Jeremiah 17:9: The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked.

  

God also said; That He hates all workers of iniquity (Psalms 5:5), and that He is angry with the wicked everyday (Psalms 7:11).

 

Roman 6:23: For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

 

Yes… Jesus Christ is the good news for us born in sin and destined for God’s rightful judgment of eternal damnation in hells fire. But God commendeth His love towards us, in that, while we were yet sinners Christ died for the ungodly in order that those who would repent, believe and obey the gospel would not perish in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

 

Luke 13:3 I tell you nay except you repent you shall all likewise perish.

 

John 14:6 I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man goes to the Father except through me. 

 

Mat 7:13-14 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

 

Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

 

Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

 

It is very clear in God’s word that in order for a person to receive eternal life they must repent (turn from sin), believe the gospel of Jesus Christ, obey His words, abide (stay) in Him, and endure to the end to the saving of their soul

 

YOU MUST BE BORN-AGAIN TO (EVEN) SEE THE KINGDOM OF GOD. (John 3:3)

 

Eph 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.

 

John 3:36  He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

 

 

Bondservant of the Lord Jesus Christ,
