- 0:01Hello. Welcome to the No God Coach
- 0:02Huddle for March May 29, 2025. Your
- 0:07two-minute play of the day for applying
- 0:08God's word in your life. So, let's
- 0:10huddle up and hear today's play from
- 0:12Romans 2, which says, "Or do you show
- 0:15contempt for the riches of his kindness,
- 0:17forbearance, and patience, not realizing
- 0:20that God's kindness is intended to lead
- 0:22you to repentance? But because of your
- 0:25stubbornness and your unrepentant heart,
- 0:27you're storing up wrath against yourself
- 0:29for the day of God's uh wrath when the
- 0:33righteous will be revealed. God will
- 0:35repay each person according to what they
- 0:37have done. To those who by persistence
- 0:40and doing good seek glory, honor, and
- 0:42immortality, he will give eternal life.
- 0:45But for those who are seeking are
- 0:47self-seeking and who reject the truth
- 0:49and follow evil, there will be wrath and
- 0:52anger. Why is there evil in the world?
- 0:56The simplest answer is that humanity is
- 0:59evil. All of us from our ancestors to
- 1:01the present. Our rebellion against God
- 1:04has created a world that no longer
- 1:06operates according to God's ways. And he
- 1:09allows us to remain in our rebellion so
- 1:11that we may return to him in love by our
- 1:14own choice and not by his force. evil
- 1:17seems unpunished and rampant while God
- 1:20doing little to nothing about it because
- 1:22God waits for us, all of us to see and
- 1:25experience this evil, then cry out to
- 1:27him for help, for mercy, forgiveness,
- 1:30and transformation so that we will no
- 1:32longer do evil or want to live where
- 1:35evil
- 1:36dwells. God does not force us into his
- 1:38ways, but invites us into them. God
- 1:41lived in our world and he suffered evil
- 1:44as we all do, even torture and death by
- 1:46those who hated him. God knows our
- 1:49suffering. For he himself suffered as a
- 1:52man among us. His suffering was to save
- 1:54us. Those who wish to do good and live
- 1:57forever must follow Jesus. This is the
- 2:00good God requires. Goodness is the
- 2:02recognition of God's love and kindness
- 2:05through the work and person of Jesus who
- 2:07reconciles humanity to himself and gives
- 2:10us the opportunity to live in God's
- 2:13perfect and good world forever. The good
- 2:16we must do is to repent of our evil
- 2:18lives, even the good we think is good,
- 2:21and turn to Jesus's goodness, seeking
- 2:24his declaration of pardon and goodness
- 2:26over us to restore us to himself. Only
- 2:30those, but all those who are so
- 2:32pardoned, who are reconciled to God
- 2:34through Jesus are good, obedient, and
- 2:37guaranteed life eternal on the new
- 2:39earth, where God reigns and evil is
- 2:42absent. Until then, those who love God
- 2:45are to do good by sharing his love with
- 2:48others, giving everyone an opportunity
- 2:50to be reconciled to God. For his desire
- 2:53is that no one should perish but
- 2:55everyone come to everlasting
