The Surprise of God's Wrath on a Nation In the Context of Grace

Many may be surprised at this, but God's wrath that comes on a nation is the result of the majority rejecting Him as their Creator Who loves them and wants a relationship with them. His wrath is revealed not by what He does to them but what He permits them to do to themselves. He permits these things to happen by the removal of His grace which was like a fence holding them back from certain sins. Once He removes those fences, that nation will begin to destroy it's own social structure. In this increasingly hopeless situation the good news is that Jesus Christ still desires to forgive and come live in every person who sincerely invites Him. No matter how much a nation or individual has messed up their lives, He still loves them and desires to be intimate with them. This intimacy with Him always results in transformation both personally and nationally. There is always hope in Him! If you wonder where I got this from, read Romans chapter 1 in the Bible.
