Romans 1:18 NKJV
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them.
Nahum 1:2-3 NKJV
God is jealous, and the Lord avenges; The Lord avenges and is furious. The Lord will take vengeance on His adversaries, And He reserves wrath for His enemies; The Lord is slow to anger and great in power, And will not at all acquit the wicked.
God's wrath is very serious business and must be viewed with the utmost sobriety. It is so serious in fact that God didn't even spare His own Son to appease it. His anger will finally come to a resolution and justice against the wicked will rightly be served at Christ's Second Coming.
May we not wait until that fateful hour but come to Him now...for today is the day of salvation. - JSS

Peter, Please Come Home (Lyrics)
V. 1
Jesus, I have denied You
As I hear the birds last call,
And I’ve fallen into darkness
In guilt and shame I crawl.
V. 2
Father, why have You taken
The only friend I’ve known?
Abandoned and forsaken,
Am I to die here alone?
Jesus, please come home.
V. 3
Spirit, where is Your comfort
Like He promised some time ago?
For now Your sheep are scattered,
And we need Your strength and hope.
Jesus, please come home.
Bridge
Peter, I’ve not denied you
Can’t you see my love on the cross?
He’s come to offer forgiveness,
Take comfort with those who are lost.
So Peter, please come home.
Oh Peter, please come home.
Ending
Peter, I’ve not denied you.
Can’t you see my love on the cross?
Jesus, I have denied You
As I hear the birds last call,
And I’ve fallen into darkness
In guilt and shame I crawl.
V. 2
Father, why have You taken
The only friend I’ve known?
Abandoned and forsaken,
Am I to die here alone?
Jesus, please come home.
V. 3
Spirit, where is Your comfort
Like He promised some time ago?
For now Your sheep are scattered,
And we need Your strength and hope.
Jesus, please come home.
Bridge
Peter, I’ve not denied you
Can’t you see my love on the cross?
He’s come to offer forgiveness,
Take comfort with those who are lost.
So Peter, please come home.
Oh Peter, please come home.
Ending
Peter, I’ve not denied you.
Can’t you see my love on the cross?

The Kingdom Within
Luke 17:20-21 AMP
Asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He replied to them by saying, The kingdom of God does not come with signs to be observed or with visible display, Nor will people say, Look! Here [it is]! or, See, [it is] there! For behold, the kingdom of God is within you [in your hearts] and among you [surrounding you].
An interesting note about the above passage-He was asked by and answered the Pharisees, not the disciples at this moment. As E. Stanley Jones in his book, Abundant Living confirms: In this exchange Jesus was talking not to His disciples, but to the Pharisees--unchanged people. Is the kingdom of God then in us all, changed and unchanged? Yes.
