    A farmers barn was burnt to the ground one night and he discovered all the chickens and pigs to have died in the fire. As he walked around he discovered in the case of one dead chicken a bunch of chics under her wings. This is how it will be with the wrath of God. Only Christ can protect us from the wrath but the wrath is coming on this world.

    Inspired by a WOTM devotional

    To apply this I am preparing a letter to a apostate church and won't dance around this topic but will hit it head on. The tract by Mac STOP WHO DO YOU THINK I AM hits well on the wrath of God and my letter will as well. The apostates need to stop their false doctrines and acceptance of active homosexuals into membership and the pulpit for the wrath of God will come upon them!!!

    Sinners are in the hands of an angry God and God is in the hands of angry sinners (chapter from the Holiness of God by RC Sproul).

    Do you know what the problem with you doing all this is? The problem is who are you? Maybe you know what God's word says about these matters and maybe you do not. But it doesn't matter if you do. Who are you and why should they listen to you?

    Are you just trying to promote the truth of God or do you actually care for these people? Why should they listen to you? I am not convinced that you are ready for this nor is your heart properly prepared for it.

    You come across as someone who just gets his jolly's by telling other people they are wrong.

    That's funny coming from you...

    To me he comes across as someone who sees a world headed to Hell and he wants to give them the Truth. I admire his zeal.

    Agree, even if I disagree with his methods and reliance on extrabiblical books.

    Before sending letters out, you need to correct your grammar and spelling. It would not be a good testimony to display a lack of care when it comes to how you present yourself.

    Can you find errors in the quoted portions of your OP?

    Amen. People need to be told of the way, truth and life Christ Jesus. Many reject him but I continue to witness. My letters always have grace after condemnation as I strive to be balanced and tell the entire gospel.

    At Bible study I learned of an atheist that died and prior to his death had a terrible nightmare of devils and evil things attacking him. He died later and his spouse has been attending church so Lord willing she will repent and turn to Christ.

    Wrong! The books I read are loaded with scripture and I check out these books to the scripture. They are not scripture but they do help me understand.

    Perhaps you should read a dictionary to help you understand what extra- means.

    extra-
    prefix
    : outside or beyond
    Full Definition
    outside :beyond <extrajudicial>

    I will not judge your ultimate motivation, but I do wonder why it is that you see the need to repeatedly publicly post your evangelistic exploits. You give the impression that you seek admiration for it.
