“Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word” (Psalm 119:9 KJV).

If our physical posterity could augment its spiritual dexterity, exactly what would that entail?

King David prophesied in Psalm 2:1-5: “Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.” (God’s judgment on unbelieving Israel and unbelieving Romans/Gentiles was to immediately follow Calvary’s cross. See the interpretation in Acts 4:24-30.)

Quoting Joel 2:30-32, the Apostle Peter in early Acts (right after Christ’s crucifixion) warned unbelieving Israel about coming wrath and judgment: “And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come: And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Acts 2:19-21). He continued, “For Moses truly said unto the fathers [Deuteronomy 18:15,18,19], A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you. And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people” (Acts 3:22,23). Unbelieving, Christ-rejecting Israelites would be “destroyed!”

By Acts chapter 7, Israel’s one-year extension of mercy closes with Stephen’s sermon and ensuing stoning: “But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God, And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God” (verses 55,56). “The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool” (Psalm 110:1; cf. Acts 2:33-36).

Yet, Christ never came back, and there has never been such wrath… yet….
