God is intimately and urgently concerned with how you, I, every nation, and all people conduct ourselves. I say intimately because He knows everything about everyone for all time and He wants us to turn from our self-interest, lust, greed, and all sin, unto Him, because He really does know what is best for us.
He has raised up and thrown down many mighty nations and people great and small. We have all fallen because we refuse to heed His Word, His warnings, and His call to repentance and faith in the only salvation that He has ever promised to all people, from when He first created humanity.
This following passage from God's Bible shows a glimpse of God's concern about the way folks keep pushing Him away. Though written to the Nation of Israel, its condemnation of sin and its call to repentance wholly applies to every person on Earth.
Hosea 7:1-7
1 When I would have healed Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim
was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria: for they commit falsehood; and
the thief cometh in, and the troop of robbers spoileth without.
2 And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness: now their own doings have beset them about; they are before my face.
3
They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes
with their lies.
4 They are
all adulterers, as an oven heated by the baker, who ceaseth from raising
after he hath kneaded the dough, until it be leavened.
5 In the day of our king the princes have made
him sick with bottles of wine; he stretched out his hand with scorners.
6 For they have made ready their
heart like an oven, whiles they lie in wait: their baker sleepeth all the night;
in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire.
7
They are all hot as an oven, and have devoured their judges; all
their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto me.
Before it's too late for you to be saved from your sin, ...please, ...stop and look to God's Christ and His salvation: trust Jesus and ask Him to save you for the sake of His sinless blood that He shed in place of the eternal punishment that you and I both deserve for our sin.
