Psalm 50
Someone once described this Psalm as a wonderful revelation. However, wonderful is not the way I would describe it. Rather the thought, which comes to my mind, is one of a terrifying revelation. This is horrifying as the Psalmist takes us to the difficult and violent times that herald the end and the certain judgement that follows.
It does not conjure up a happy picture. It is a warning to everyone who is prepared to take notice, to make us realise that to continue to live our life carelessly leaving God out or on the fringes. This gives us the reason as to why God is often referred to as our Saviour because He alone has the means and authority to deliver us from this terrible future
