Whom is He against? Whom does He resist? The proud. The proud man is God's rival; he makes himself his own God, and would have those about him make him theirs too; he rages, he blusters if they will not fall down before him. But God will bring him down.

At the Devil's house warning of the wrath to come to those found in their sin. God hates the hands that shed innocent blood. Women come because there is no fear of God before their eyes. I go knowing the terror of the Lord to warn them that all will give an account to Christ.
