God has always existed and always will. The same for ever, He is unchanging. This psalm also states: “A thousand years for Him

We have all known people who- thought they could do that, but they were mistaken. Knowing well enough the difference between right and wrong, some folks seek to justify sinful actions by fabricating excuses, even brainwashing themselves into believing them, but wrong is still wrong. Clever barristers can juggle with words and make wrong appear to be right, but the truth is still the truth. To continue about God . . . He is everywhere, in all

In all fairness God cannot ignore lack of repentance of sin, although “He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repen tance.” (2nd Peter, Chapter 3:9). Repentance means being sorry enough to seek to
