It is not only the unbelieving world that puts God on trial. Believers sometimes accuse God too. We see unbelievers who seem more blessed than we are. We accuse, “God, that is not fair!” We are facing some life struggle. We accuse, “God, you aren’t paying attention!” We experience an agonizing hardship or loss. We accuse, “God, you aren’t nearly as loving as you claim to be!” Tonight, God puts us in our place, and that’s a good thing. We need to understand how dangerous it is for sinners to accuse the holy God, and how ridiculous it is for us to question the love of a God who gave us his one and only Son. The result of such realization? We repent in dust and ashes, turning to the Lord for forgiveness.
