Deu 32:22 (a) The evil actions of men provoke the burning wrath of GOD into severe action. (See also Jer 15:14; (See also Jer 17:4).

Psa 78:21 (a) This is a type of GOD’s anger and wrath against His own people of Judah and Israel because of their sins. (See also Isa 10:16; Isa 42:25; Jer 6:1; Jer 11:16; Jer 17:27; Jer 21:14; Lam 4:11; Eze 20:47; Eze 24:10; Hos 8:14; Amo 2:5).

Jer 43:12 (a) Here we find a splendid type of GOD’s power to punish all His enemies and especially those particular enemies which are mentioned in each of the following passages: Jer 49:27; Jer 50:32; Eze 30:8, Eze 30:14, Eze 30:16; Eze 39:6; Amo 1:4, Amo 1:14; Amo 2:2.
Luk 12:49 (a) This is a striking illustration of the trouble that comes into a home, a family, or a society when CHRIST is received into the heart by any person. When the Lord JESUS takes possession of a person’s soul, then trouble begins. There is a division at once in the family between the saved one who wants to live for GOD, and those in the family who have no interest in Christian things. The house is divided, enmity of a real kind develops. The Christian who wishes to walk with the Lord in business finds there is a gulf between his manner of life and the lives of the others who wish to have their wild parties, gain customers by liquor, and spend their time smoking or playing cards, and other things which the world offers to the Devil’s children.
Jam 3:6 (a) The tongue that is inspired by Satan to speak and say things that are cruel, hateful and sinful is described as a burning flame that injures, harms and hurts those who hear it. How careful we should be that the words we speak are full of grace and truth.
