Surely God is Good

Pastor Victor Manuel Labrada
- Psalms 73:1ff
Independent Sermons
Delivered on: 23 June 2019
Christians are often tempted to compare their lives to the lives of non-Christians and wonder, "why do they have it so good?" If God loves his people, why does he seem to reward the wicked? Asaph ponders the same in Psalm 73. These questions can sometimes lead to a perverted version of Christianity (which attempts to merge worldly treasures with spiritual blessings) or flat out resentment. But as Asaph learns when he enters the sanctuary to see God's holiness, wealth and health cannot spare someone from God's holy judgment, and neither can our own righteousness. Asaph, and we, need to be found in someone who is truly pure in heart, so that we can have refuge here and in eternity. (Ps 73:1ff)
