There's a Wideness in God's Mercy

There’s a Wideness in God’s Mercy

A song that was composed by John Zundel, 1815-1882.  It is a tribute to God that far surpasses any thought that the average man could imagine.

What makes this hymn so unique at this time in spiritual needs is the fact of a missing adherence to the understanding of who Jesus is and the very sacrifice he took upon himself to save even one sinner from eternal death.  Is there a need for a spiritual awakening in our nation?  I believe there is and with the assassination of Charlie Kirk is an example of the fear from so many who believe in nothing but an empty after-life which will welcome the souls into hell which is real and everlasting.

The fear that too many unbelievers in Christ is an open epic that demonic evil is roaming the hearts of a new type religion that is filling up with new-age religion that is completely foreign to any of us who grew up under the Baltimore Catechism and are stunned at how many around us are joining a false faith promoted by false teachers in the name of a god who does not exist.  

Yet, it is the very theme that Charlie Kirk was preaching to young people in the universities and telling them that Jesus Christ is their friend as well as their God.  He is following the same path that Billy Graham used a number of years ago and in a searching mode of the future leaders of a nation looking for hope.  

Thousands of mourners just buried a saint who became a martyr whose message will live for eons and hopefully turn the education of everyone who hears his directive for a spiritual reawakening will touch the minds of many and turn their hearts into more needed evangelists for the silent few in our world. 

Charlie's wife, Erica Kirk, said earlier that this assassin opened a movement that will unleash a sleeping culture into the same message and example of Jesus Christ and become the human effort to bring people back to praying and trusting in the bride of Christ and know that there is only one way and person to find the truth of God’s world of love and mercy.  Then we shall see the Wideness of God’s Mercy.
