Romans 2:9-11 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil; of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile. But glory, honour, and peace to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile. For there is no respect of persons with God.
Amen…and Amen to that Friends! The Lord doesn’t care who you are; what religion you belong to, whether you have an exalted or lowly position in society, whether you’re rich or poor, drive a fancy car, or ride a donkey, do mental or menial labour. When it comes to good and evil, we are all the same to Him. Bruh Paul is informing the church at Rome, and us too, that, ‘Tribulation and anguish,’ will come ‘upon every soul of man that doeth evil;’ And it doesn’t matter whether you are Jew or Gentile. ‘But glory, honour, and peace,’ will be the reward ‘to every man that worketh good.’ Again, your ethnic origin is unimportant. The accident of your birth into a particular segment of society is immaterial, for God ‘will render to every man according to his deeds.’ Vs.6. Oh people, this should throw up a red flag of dire warning in front of us all, make us stop and take inventory, ask ourselves, what camp are we in? Good or evil? Hopefully we’ll all conclude, with a sincere heart, that we’re in the good one. And if by chance we aren’t, then we’ll opt to throw off the hold that evil has on us, a.s.a.p, and instead wrap ourselves in the liberating cloak of righteousness. It’s not too late. And for those of us who genuinely figure we’re in the good camp, then it’s imperative we go out there and somehow or other, reduce the numbers in the enemy’s camp, because they seem to currently outnumber us by far. They also appear to be in more powerful positions, meaning they have the capacity for large, widespread evil projects, that can cause great calamity. And for some reason, a small evil deed seems to produce a greater backlash than a good one. Like one hand grenade disintegrates and spreads shrapnel over a wide area, just so one evil deed disproportionately multiplies and spreads misfortune. So it’s definitely in our best interest to substantially lessen, reduce to zero, the purveyors of such wickedness. Don’t laugh, for with our God, anything’s possible, but it will take a major, sustained effort on the part of the good camp. But then again, it seems harder for good people to unite and fight for a worthy cause, than for the unrighteous to band together to promote their ungodly deeds. Why is that eh? Oh Friends, we can cry and complain all we want, but nothing in this world is going to change for the better until the righteous rise up as one, and stay unified, until the enemy is defeated. But until then, each of us has to do our small bit in our little corner, and work to be in the group Bruh Paul talks about in Vs.7. ‘To them who by patient continuance in well doing, seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life.’ Much LOVE!…let’s be of the household of good nuh…it’s the only wise and sensible way…
