Who are the wicked?-2

 In this world it is very tough to judge people face to face. They are having a fine face with us(all smiles) and at our back the real self pops-up. (exhibiting the wrost character we never dreamed of in life)  

The personality traits are dominated by the inner thoughts.(Mostly that makes a person).

Hence at least we should know the evil feature of a bad person.


Now Read the following verses for a better understanding and clarity in mind.
  • “They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. Romans 1:29
Hard-hearted. Heady and high-minded. Hostile to God:
  • “The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. Romans 8:7.
Hypocritical. Lying:
  • Even from birth the wicked go astray; from the womb they are wayward, spreading lies.Their venom is like the venom of a snake,” Psalms 58:3
Mischievous.
  • He lies in wait near the villages; from ambush he murders the innocent. His eyes watch in secret for his victims; like a lion in cover he lies in wait. He lies in wait to catch the helpless; he catches the helpless and drags them off in his net. His victims are crushed, they collapse; they fall under his strength. He says to himself, “God will never notice; he covers his face and never sees.”Psalms 10:8
Proud.
  • “For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak. Psalms 59:12
Stiff-necked. Stiff-hearted. Unjust. Unmerciful. Ungodly.
  •  “…they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them. Romans 1:31
Often we seek a reason for the prosperity of the wicked. (a mistaken belief that how God deals with them in this world.) 


God Almighty is a God of all creation- heaven and earth.

"He makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust." (Matthew 5:45).

The Bible declares that the prosperity of the wicked benefits them in this life and would eventually be punished (Job 21:16-34; Psalm. 37:1-17; 73:17-19).
The wicked are reserved for destruction, their prosperity is momentary, and that they are to the eternally cut off. The wicked may indeed prosper. But they prosper only in this life, not eternally (Luke 12:16-21)

The wicked may prosper, but that should not a concern  of us. Instead, Do  you want  to take the gospel to the wicked so that they might prosper eternally. Even after knowing the truth and the Gospel, wicked are having a  hardened heart , we realize what the end of the wicked is.

The LORD reigns.


God be with you
