nails and worry about the heathen overthrowing Him from His throne.
The devil tried that once, and failed.
B. God SPEAKS in His anger (v. 5). All God has to do is speak the word, and
its all over (Ezek. 12:25-28)!
When Jesus comes in the second advent, a sharp two-edged sword
will proceed out of Christs mouth and destroy all those who oppose
Him (Rev. 19:15; Ezek. 38:19). No wonder people hate the Bible. It
predicts their destrucJon.
C. God VEXES in His animosity (SORE displeasure hatred). The manifes-
taJon of His judgment
ParJally fullled in 70AD. The ulJmate fulllment will be during the
Great TribulaJon period (RevelaJon 6-19).
III.
Suppose Jesus came back to this earth tomorrow and went to the
Kremlin and knocked at the door. PuJn answers the door. Jesus says,
"I'm Jesus. I'm here to take over.'' Do you think PuJn would say, "My, we
have been waiJng for you?'' How do you think He could take over if He
came to Russia today? He would have to break them with a rod of iron.
Suppose Jesus came to Iraq and says, Im Jesus, and Im here to take
over.
Suppose He came to the U.S. He goes to the White House and said,
"I'm here to take over.'' Obama would say, "Well, Jesus, I have everything
under control. Im sorry, but we dont need you. I can handle the aairs
of the U.S. Maybe you are saying, "Oh, he would take Him.'' Then why
doesnt he take Him?
When He comes the second Jme He will come exactly as God said:
"Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces
like a poEer's vessel.''
"It is beker to bend than to be broken."
IV.
The RECONCILIATION to the King (2:10-12) The appeal for this age.
A. Word of INSTRUCTION (v. 10) Wise up and know who is Boss.
B. Word of EXHORTATION (v. 11). Sober up, serve God.
C. Word of INVITATION (v. 12) "Kiss the Son"
1. Kiss is a word of reconcilia6on (Luke 15:20Kiss, and make-up.).
2. Kiss is a word of submission (1 Sam. 10:1).
3. Kiss is a word of worship (1 Kings 19:18; Hos. 13:2; Luke 7:38, 45).
D. His Word of ADMONITION "...lest he be angry, and ye perish from the
way, when his wrath is kindled."
SUMMATION: The Psalm begins ominously, but ends posiJvely! The choice: (1)
REBEL and be broken, or (2) TRUST and be blessed.
Put it down: This world has not seen the last of Jesus! Submit to Him and Kiss
Him now before He comes again!
