Deuteronomy 28:47
The Curse of Military Siege
28:47 “Because you have not served the Lord your God joyfully and wholeheartedly with the abundance of everything you have,
Jeremiah 5:19
5:19 “So then, Jeremiah,
when your people
ask, ‘Why has the
Lord our God done all this to us?’ tell them, ‘It is because you rejected me and served foreign gods in your own land. So
you must serve foreigners
in a land that does not belong to you.’
Romans 3:4-5
3:4 Absolutely not! Let God be proven true, and every human being
shown up as a liar,
just as it is written: “
so that you will be justified in your words and will prevail when you are judged.”
3:5 But if our unrighteousness demonstrates the righteousness of God, what shall we say? The God who inflicts wrath is not unrighteous, is he? (I am speaking in human terms.)
