And know that your life is dedicated to, your entertainment, your income, whatever, is dedicated to mocking a widow.

It's just not possible.

And so if you do feel good about that, and you're like, well, I don't really feel any conviction.

I think that this is fine.

That's not an indication that what you're doing is okay.

That's an indication that you are calloused.

that you worship the God of self, you worship the God of money, you worship the God of entertainment, you worship the God of sensationalism, not the God of scripture.

Okay, that's what's going on.

All of us in different times in our lives have had times of trying to justify sin and to assuage conviction, okay?

But because God is good, if you have the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit hounds you and is like, you keep wanting to do this, but I'm not going to let you feel good about this.

You're going to keep feeling bad about this until you repent.

Okay, but if you don't have the Holy Spirit, then you can keep feeling good about really awful things for a long time.

And if you keep feeling good about and finding joy in the mockery of a widow, that is an indication of the absence of the Holy Spirit in your life.

It just is.

And that's not Ali Stuckey's judgment, okay?

That is the nature of the Holy Spirit.

because he is the convictor, he is the helper, he helps sanctify us.

And if you are not feeling any of those things when it comes to blatant evil and sin, I'm just saying there's something really deep going on there.

And I say it in the hope that that will change.

And really, I know this might seem dramatic for a lot of people, but you always ask, how did these evil atrocities happen in the world, in history?
