Psalm 11: 3: "If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?" This is still a good question to ask today. Today the authority of the Word of God is being challenged on every hand. For the most part, it has been aside for the wisdom (i.e. foolishness) of men who know not God but are in power. As I write, we have the “new morality,” which is sin that the Bible has condemned from the very beginning. Things that used to be wrong are now right and things that were right are now wrong. The problem is, What can the righteous do? I will tell you what they can do. Listen to the psalmist in verse 6: "Upon the wicked He shall rain snares (quick burning coals), fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest (a burning tempest): this shall be the portion of their cup." Reminiscent of the judgment on Sodom and Gomorrah (Gen. 19:24). Evil will be completely burned up. We just need to be faithful, obedient and wait for the Lord to act.
