"Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off."
Can you decode this? If that's how His character is, the goodness it's talking about is that of the Word, which is severe towards them that love Her not and only apparently are friends, who say the "words" and do the "works" which serve as a stumblingblock to Her children, which only "purpose" is to "help" them fall from the Rock they are founded Upon. Verse 20 says, "Be not highminded, but fear", confirming that it's really talking about believing in the Condition and letting no other "reason" and "emotion" be found in you. So the better Her followers get, the more severe also.
She has Hope for many, but only few can get There and abide forever.
Don't you find Her fascinating?
