Nahum, Pt. 2 - Nahum 1:15-2:13 // Why is God's justice something to look forward to?
Our sin is not just an individual problem. Sin is a problem that plagues all of humanity, and the creation we live in. When we talk about "salvation", we often narrow it to our individual salvation and miss out on how Scripture talks about salvation. God's salvation includes our personal salvation, but also the salvation of his people and all creation from sin and death. While we look forward to God's final justice, where Satan, sin, and death are destroyed forever, we are given small glimpses of God's judgment and salvation through the Old Testament prophets. The destruction of Nahum shows us that the mightiest empires of man cannot lift a finger against God, and that all who oppose the Lord in their sin will see their evil judged by the perfect judgment of God - and the salvation and deliverance of those who put their trust in Christ!
