God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Why is God so angry [at unbelievers]? There are at least three reasons.
1. Because of the sheer number of your sins. If you were to sin only 10 times a day for one year, you would disobey God 3,650 times. But if you sinned 10 times a day for 15 years, you would sin 54,750 times! You are a professional sinner! Yet, how many times did Adam sin before he was cursed by God?
2. Because you have sinned against such an infinite God and high command. There are different levels of sin and punishment (Luke 10:12; 12:42-48). A crime is weighed according to the seriousness of the command and the stature of the person who is sinned against. It is one thing to disobey your coach at school. It is another thing to disobey a judge. It is one thing to turn in a late term paper. It is another thing to murder the president. The highest command is to “love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength.” The greatest being is God. Each time you sin, you commit the highest crime against the greatest being! God ought to be angry.
3. Because you have sinned against God’s greatest act of love. Christ was sent into the world of men and women out of love (John 3:16). But many of your friends, and perhaps you also, have rejected Christ up to this very moment. This rebellion is a sin against compassion. Is it any wonder that God is angry with those who think little of His love?

INSTRUCTIONS
In heavy saucepan, combine 3/4 cup sugar, cocoa, cornstarch and salt; blend
in milk and egg yolks. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until
mixture boils for 1 minute. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla. Cool pudding
slightly, stirring occasionally. Slice 4 bananas; set aside. Spoon small
amount of pudding on bottom of a 1 1/2-quart casserole or heat-proof bowl;
top with 5 wafers and a layer of banana slices. Stand 8 wafers around
inside of bowl. Repeat layering of pudding, wafers and banana slices, using
a total of 19 more wafers and ending with a final layer of pudding. With
electric mixer at high speed, beat egg whites until soft peaks form.
Gradually add remaining sugar, beating until stiff. Spread over pudding,
sealing edges well. Bake at 400 degrees F for 5 to 10 minutes or until
golden. Serve warm or chilled. Slice remaining banana and use for garnish
along with remaining wafers.
