5. Because they regard not the works of the Lord, nor the operation of his hands. God works in creation—nature teems with proofs of his wisdom and
goodness, yet blind atheists refuse to see him; he works in providence, yet the
unbeliever will not discern him; he works in grace—remarkable conversions are
still met with on all hands—yet the ungodly refuse to see the operations of the
Lord. God comes to us to teach us, and we refuse to learn. He shall destroythem. If they would not see the hand of judgment on others, they will feel
it on themselves. And not build them up. God’s curse is positive and
negative; their heritage of evil will prevent the ungodly receiving any good.
Those who will not mend shall be thrown away as worthless. Let us be very
attentive to all the lessons of God’s word and work, lest being found disobedient
to the divine will we are made to suffer the divine wrath.
