Remember These Things (2 Peter) No.5- Judging Evil, Preserving Saints

Do you ever wonder why God sometimes seemingly lets evil have its way? Why doesn’t He judge it immediately? We know evil is caused by sin, perhaps even our own… but why does God even allow sin to be a thing in the first place? Wy must we even tolerate false teaching? Didn’t’ Christ suffer on the cross to defeat evil? Will evil ever get what it deserves? We grapple with these questions today, same as the 1st century church. We are even more exposed to false teaching than the 1st century church. Internet, locally, nationally. You can’t escape the reality that God’s people will always be plagued by evil of false teaching around us. it’s easy to lose heart, give up. Where do we turn? Where do we get the motivation, inspiration to wait patiently? How can we get the confidence & assurance we need, that God knows what He’s doing? And we can rest easy?
