Obedience to the word of God is critical for a nation, or for any individual. If the warnings for disobedience go unheeded, what will be the result? God will not wink at ungodliness and unrighteousness. Blessed is the nation who is God is the Lord, but sin is a reproach to any people. Is judgment coming up on this world? The Scripture clearly teaches that it is. What are we do in the face of this impending judgment? Paul told Timothy to: "Preach the word", in those trying times that were coming. We too must be people who preach and teach the truth of the word of God, especially in the times we are living in!
