By Chuck Smith0PSA 18:25ISA 55:6HOS 4:1MAT 5:7Chuck Smith addresses God's controversy with the children of Israel, emphasizing that while they enjoyed the privileges of being His people, they also bore the weight of higher accountability. He highlights God's complaints about the lack of truth, mercy, and knowledge of Him in the land, drawing parallels to contemporary society. The moral breakdown resulting from these deficiencies leads to rampant dishonesty, violence, and a devaluation of life. Smith warns that without a return to God, society risks total chaos and despair, but offers hope through seeking the Lord and His mercy.
