“God is committed to the purity of his people. There is a sure and certain Day of Judgment coming, and on that day the lost will stand before a holy God who does not trifle with sin. They will not remain standing.

Do streams of water flow from your eyes, like the psalmist’s, because of those who disregard the word of God? When was the last time you wept and imagined the Day of Judgment unannounced and quick? It will be a day like this one. School, work, coffee, Super Bowl, snow, marriage, then judgment comes. We dwell among people who dangle on a web over the flames of hell. The driftwood of sin that the lost are holding onto does not float in the flood of judgment.”
