Psalm 1:6: The Ungodly Man

Psalm 1:6 (KJV) ⁶ For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
D.  He is Damned (6)

For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous:  

...the LORD:  Jehovah

...the way:    Course of action.

...the righteous:     just.  justified by the blood of Jesus. 

There are only two ways.  There is the way of the cross, and there is the way of the curse. Jesus said it clearly:

John 14:6 (KJV) ⁶ Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
There is only one way to eternal life in Heaven, and that is through the blood shed on Calvary's cross by God's Son, Jesus Christ.

1 John 5:12 (KJV) ¹² He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
All individuals can be classified into two categories; believers and unbelievers, or saved and lost, or righteous and ungodly.

...but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

...ungodly:   Morally wrong.  Condemned guilty.

...perish:      To be destroyed.  To come to nothing.

The closing word of the first Hebrew hymn is sobering.  It is perish.  God's Word is clear in this matter.  All who die without personal faith in Jesus Christ perish for all eternity. 

Mark 16:16 (KJV) ¹⁶ He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

John 3:36 (KJV) ³⁶ He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
John 3:16-18 (KJV) ¹⁶ For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. ¹⁷ For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. ¹⁸ He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
If you are reading this today, I urge you to turn to Jesus Christ.  I beseech you to believe in Him.  There is only one way to be saved and that is through the blood of Jesus.  Trust Him today!

Psalm 1:5: The Ungodly Man

The Ungodly Man: Psalm 1:5 Defined and Dissected

Psalm 1:5 (KJV) ⁵ Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

C.  He is Condemned (5)

...ungodly:   Morally wrong.  Condemned guilty.

...stand in the judgment:     The sinner will not be able to stand in the judgment.  He will be called to the great white throne of judgment only to find that the heaven, the earth, and all that he had or did is gone. Everything he had done and every investment of his time and talent will be gone.  He has no where to stand.  He has nothing that will stand.  He has built his house on the sinking sand.

Revelation 20:11-15 (KJV) ¹¹ And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. ¹² And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. ¹³ And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. ¹⁴ And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. ¹⁵ And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
...nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous:    The righteous are those whose sins have been washed by the blood of Jesus! Sinners are those who do not know Jesus.  They are responsible for their sins, as His blood has not been applied to their account.

In eternity, sinners will not be where the righteous are.  Frankly, let us be honest about this, Heaven would not be Heaven, if sin is present.  One of the attributes of Heaven that all the blood washed believers eagerly await is the absence of sin. 

Oh my friend, if you do not know Jesus as your Savior, repent and be saved.  If your sins are washed in His precious blood, rejoice!  He is ours, and we are His'. Someday we will walk the streets of glory and be with the one who loved us enough to die on Calvary's cross for our sins!
