Matthew 5:45

That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

While we hope for Christ's return our ugly reality is that we are present for purposes God jave declared. We may not understand these purposes but that is unimportant.

What is important is Christ Jesus.
How we respond to his life, ministry, death on the cross, and resurrection qualifies the difference between just and unjust, the good and the evil.
Christ told us that if we are his followers we shal keep and obey his commandments.
He presented all of us a choice. Meaning we will or won't do as proscribed.

Jesus also gave us instruction to not cast our pearls to the swine.

While we preach the good news of the gospel, we are not to get entangled with those that will not hear it. We are not to enforce Christ's teachings, but we are to establish them.

If we could understand the importance of our situation. We are the reality TV show for the universe in which God will be vindicated for all to behold.
Satan has accused God of not being worthy to be sovereign. And the unfallen worlds are watching with greater expectation than most of us can imagine.

The suffering must continue until justice of God is settled.

We are closer to the verdict than ever before.

Are you going to be counted with the good and just or not?

Christ alone is the measure.

Peace and blessings.
