furious rebukes and fiery indignations

Presidents and governors, mayors and councilmen, Pastors and priests, judges and prophets: If the least to the greatest of them in the kingdoms of men are given over to covetousness, what shall be the end thereof? As in the days of Sodom, is not the fire and brimstone its destruction? While the wicked grope for an open door to release abominable filth into the household, so have the rulers of darkness bid the will of their master, that old serpent, the devil. As for the polluted sanctuaries: The godly man has ceased to do good and the once faithful have pined away in their iniquitous ways. "Where in have we sinned?" Eating swine's flesh and rejoicing to do evil with both hands earnestly. The air is made foul from PERVERSIONS of FLESH. Consciences seared from knowledge of God as with a hot iron. "Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools". The willful murder of innocent blood, the damnable abominations defiling the marriage covenant between man and woman. The FORNICATIONS and adulteries, the glory of shame, doing that which is even against nature. Vile affections set up and worshipped as gods. "Our lips are our own, who is lord over us?" Mockers, BLASPHEMERS, liars, murderers and thieves. "Away with the Christ!" "Crucify Him afresh!" Knowing that they that do these things and those who have pleasure in them that corrupt themselves as dogs returning to their vomit, are worthy of death. "Where the worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched" Seeing how they put Christ to an open shame, despising His commandments, changing his laws into perverseness. The Lord will descend with the shout of an angel, and suddenly appear in the wrath of the Lamb." To execute vengeance upon all the ungodly and their ungodly deeds". So lift up the hands that hang down, and straighten that which was made crooked. Repent. Watch and pray that you may be counted worthy to escape the furious rebukes and fiery indignations of the Lord.
