“Those who live long lives of luxury and wealth, hiding their crimes and covering their sins will in a moment be destroyed. The terrors of divine wrath will sneak up on them, and they will find themselves suffering under eternal torment in the lake of fire, all of their wicked deeds having been made known to all. Everything they thought they had shrouded in impenetrable darkness will be revealed by the light of God’s holy judgment.”
(Robb Brunansky – The Cripplegate) People across the political spectrum were outraged this week when President Donald Trump dismissed the importance of the Epstein List. During his campaign, President Trump said, “Yeah, I’d do the Epstein thing. I’d have no problem with it.” Many people voted for President Trump, at least in part, because he promised to release the list. Earlier this year, Attorney General Pam Bondi claimed on Fox News that she was in possession of the Epstein List and was reviewing it. However, this past week when a reporter asked Ms. Bondi about the list, Mr. Trump intervened, shaming the reporter for still being concerned about who might have been Jeffrey Epstein’s “clients.”…,
Despite Mr. Trump’s urging to move on from discussing the Epstein List, Americans still are demanding accountability for what happened, and who participated in it, on Epstein Island. Such a day of reckoning may never come, given the combined wealth and power of those implicated in Epstein’s crimes.
As Christians, we understand that many times wicked deeds go unpunished in this present evil age. The Psalms testify repeatedly that evildoers seem to prosper because of their wealth and power, while those who are seeking the Lord suffer injustice and persecution. In Psalm 53:1, David accurately describes life in our fallen world when he writes, “The wicked fool says in his heart, ‘There is no God,’ they act corruptly, and commit abominable injustice; there is no one who does good” (LSB). Asaph was troubled by the evils he observed in the world, writing of the wicked, “They are not in trouble as other men, and they are not stricken along with the rest of mankind… They scoff and wickedly speak of oppression; they speak from on high… They say, ‘How does God know? And is there knowledge with the Most High?’ Behold, these are the wicked; and always at ease, they have increased in wealth” (Psalm 73:5, 8, 11-12 LSB). The delusion of the depraved is that they can cover their dastardly deeds, and not even God will recompense them for their crimes. When Christians see evil parading itself through the earth and injustice winning the day, we can be just as discouraged as David or Asaph. But like David and Asaph, we need to remember that injustice is always temporary.
