Who Out There Fears God?

1–350God says:

“Can you produce your mother’s divorce papers

proving I got rid of her?

Can you produce a receipt

proving I sold you?

Of course you can’t.

It’s your sins that put you here,

your wrongs that got you shipped out.

Behold, for your iniquities you were sold,

and for your transgressions your mother was sent away.

and your mother was sent away

because of your transgressions.

and your mother was dismissed because of your transgressions.

Thus saith the Lord,

Where is the bill of your mother’s divorcement, whom I have put away?

And for your transgressions is your mother put away.
