GOD DOES NOT TAKE PLEASURE IN THE DEATH OF THE WICKED.
The world has rejected Christ but Christ has not turned his back on the world. The word of God tells us that the Lord does not take pleasure in the death of the wicked, but his desire is for all to reach repentance. But there is a day coming in which God will punish the world for its sins.
Use the gift of grace to repent and turn away from iniquity. Stop dressing like a prostitute, stop gambling, start rebuking sin and do what the Lord requires of you. Let us fulfill the will of God, for only those who live according to the will of the father will inherit the kingdom of God. Be blessed in Jesus name.
The world would be a beautiful place if everyone repented and started living in conformity to the word of God. There would not be killing, stealing and destruction that we see in the world today.
