Aren't we making it impossible

for ourselves to be restored?

 

 

 

 

Right now, we may be shouting "restoration" with our lips, but aren’t we perhaps making it impossible for ourselves to be restored with our hearts and actions? (2 Chronicles 36:16)  If, at this moment, our hearts are not humble before God, if we harden our necks and our hearts, not returning to God, and are greatly sinning against Him?  Or if we are following all the abominable practices of the world and defiling God's temple, even when God sends His servant diligently to speak His word, and we mock and scorn His servant, despising God's word?  If so, then we are making it impossible for ourselves to be restored (vv. 12-16).
