Judgment of God, through the wisdom learnt from a cockroach
Exo 33:20 And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.
1Jn 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
Our neighbor’s house had many cockroaches, and the owner of the house took me into it after the neighbors had moved out. It was day time and we went in, it looked trashy but I didn’t see any cockroaches, and the owner said he would allow me to come back over come evening. That night he came back over to his house and invited me in. When we flipped on the lights in each room there were cockroaches every where, and as soon as the light would come on they would scurry to the darkness.
Here is my perspective of the final judgment of God upon all, based upon the actions of a cockroach.
Upon mans final judgment the brightness of God will appear, and those like him will embrace the light. Those unbelievers shall see the light and scurry into the darkness that is waiting for them, like the cockroach. We each shall be our own judge jury and executioner.
1Ti_6:16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.
1Jn_1:5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
2Co_6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

Thank you Lewis…It is true that unrepentant sinners throw ourselves into hell!
@Gabriel333 - Thank you Sis Janet! It is awesome to see in nature the workings of God, we as believers are like the moths that are attracted to the light. Just like the moths are burnt our carnal man is burned removed by the fire of God.
@Lewis1122 -
“our carnal man is burned removed by the fire of God.”
Yes Lewis…As Paul tells us…all the dross we be removed by fire
This reminds me Bro. Lewis, that in the darkest hour is when the devil does his dirty work and that is when sin abounds the mouth. This is when you hear of all the evil going on at night in the dark. Bro. Doc
@BroDoc - Yes agreed Bro Doc, the criminals do their best work in secret/darkness. Thank you!
Even in the Bible it says they will be hiding under the rocks and things when the Lord returns……..good post.
@Lewis1122 - This is why you read of so much crime happening at night in the news. Bro. Doc
@alterb4ego - Thank you! Thart is true, and relating it to the cockroach gives that a lot of meaning, they will hide in fear because of the glory/light of God.
