“[Fools} [make a mock] at [sin]: but among the [righteous] there is [favor]”. Commentary: It seems like a short verse until you look up the Hebrew root words! Not complicated just the meanings of the words are expanded for clarity! So what is a fool? According to the Hebrew it is someone who is perverse, silly and stupid! Every family has at least one! To “make a mock” means to scorn, ridicule or “make mouths” or a foreign language no one understands! The sinner mocks God and sin! So what is sin? It means to be a law breaker guilty without reconciliation! Did you get that? Without reconciliation! We are all sinners yet some reconciled but others not! So who reconciled our sin to God? The Father? God’s Son Jesus Christ! Remember there are two types of sinners! Forgiven sinners and unforgiven sinners! Forgiven sinners in heaven and unforgiven sinners in hell! Now what does the word righteous mean? It means to be right with God in the eyes of God! So how do we get right with God? Repentance for our sin through God’s Son Jesus Christ! Then we positionally find “favor” with God! Favor means God’s goodwill and kindness towards us from a superior to an inferior! Repentance means pride has to go and humility replaces pride! Pride before the fall! The prideful are sinful and the humble are saved! Our attitude determines our altitude! Heaven above or hell beneath! The choice is up to you! James & Hamsa Sasse.

1918 Pandemic & Fools!
The possibility of death is always before us and we should live accordingly! The thought of death and eternity is always before us! You who are not Christians, who have not yet repented of your sins, who have not yet surrendered yourselves to the guidance of Jesus Christ, if you allow these repeated warnings that you have had, day by day, week by week, to go unheeded…God has opened the way for your salvation, through the gift of His only begotten Son who died for you giving you the opportunity to make your peace with God! Pastor Francis Gimke, 1918. Comment: If people are fools enough to reject Christ through this Coronavirus then nothing will cause them to stop rejecting Christ! My Bible says after death the Judgment! Those in Christ who die understand Christ has taken their judgment on the Cross! So when Christ their judge see’s them on judgment day he see’s his own sacrifice for them and judgment is passed by for them! For those who have rejected Christ they take their own judgment on judgment day separated from God forever in Hell! Every day you try to live without Christ is a judgment day! You say God could not be that unfair? What is cruel is for you to reject the bloody sacrifice of His Son on the Cross for you! That is real cruelty! That is as cold as death! James and Hamsa Sasse.
