Why is God justified in having wrath toward you if you have not come to Christ on His terms? 1. Because you are a sinner by nature (Eph. 2:3; Rom. 3:10; Ps. 51:5). 2. Because you have amassed a huge volume of sins. 3. Because you have committed the greatest crime possible, against the highest existing authority (Mk. 12:30). 4. Because of your persistence in sinning against God. 5. Because you have spurned the greatest love gift ever [Jesus Christ]. 6. Because you have spurned this gift even though you have knowledge of Christ and the way of salvation (Mt. 11:21-24). 7. Because you have been unwilling to admit your desperate need (Jn. 9:39-40). 8. Because you have been proud of your good works, though dependence on them damns you (Gal. 2:21; Eph. 2:8-9; Gal. 5:4). 9. Because you have not repented even though He has been kind to you (Rom. 2:4-5). 10. Because you have stubbornly refused to yield to God and His way of salvation in Jesus Christ to the last possible moment—now!
