"The false prophets in Jeremiah's day ridiculed predictions of coming judgment and boasted of peace and safety when the Judge stood at the door (Jeremiah:6:14They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
See All...; 8:11). It is the same today and will be until the vials of the wrath of God are actually being poured out upon the earth (1 Thessalonians:5:3For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
See All...). Men prefer these soft-spoken teachers of error who prophesy smooth things (Isaiah:30:10Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:
See All...) to the faithful men of God who declare unflinchingly the Word of the Lord without fear or favor. But in the day of Christ, when everything hidden is brought to light, God's true servants will be recognized and rewarded, and the preachers of falsehood will be dealt with in judgment." —H. A.
