Gerry Beauchemin put it very well in HOPE BEYOND HELL that we are hindered from singing about God's judgments and it has become a "taboo topic" because we should only focus on "God's love" ... or should I say "god's love" (the great tormenting god of fundamentalists)

Gerry states that he in no way minimizes the seriousness of how God will judge the earth, but after all that is done - there truly is reason to rejoice because the people will learn righteousness when God renders judgment on the nations, here is Psalm 98:

Psalm 98
A psalm.
1 Sing a new song to the Lord,
      for he has done wonderful deeds.
   His right hand has won a mighty victory;
      his holy arm has shown his saving power!
2 The Lord has announced his victory
      and has revealed his righteousness to every nation!
3 He has remembered his promise to love and be faithful to Israel.
      The ends of the earth have seen the victory of our God.

4 Shout to the Lord, all the earth;
      break out in praise and sing for joy!
5 Sing your praise to the Lord with the harp,
      with the harp and melodious song,
6 with trumpets and the sound of the ram's horn.
      Make a joyful symphony before the Lord, the King!

7 Let the sea and everything in it shout his praise!
      Let the earth and all living things join in.
8 Let the rivers clap their hands in glee!
      Let the hills sing out their songs of joy
9 before the Lord.
      For the Lord is coming to judge the earth.
   He will judge the world with justice,
      and the nations with fairness.

The oldest known manuscripts agree with each other 99% of the time.  The scriptures, accurately translated, Spirit revealed - reliable.   Looking unto Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith.  Heb. 12:2

There are some verses in the bible where God is sad because there is no man to plead for judgment. I think God wants his people to speak His judgment upon the wicked. I think that this allows God to focus his judgment upon the wicked in specific and avoid harming the innocent bystanders. So with wisdom perhaps Gods people are supposed to ask God to bring judgment upon the wicked, so that he can move.

Before any of you bark, where is thy forgivness TT, please see that this is Gods judgment upon the wicked not mans, so the judgment is his holy judgment, so look away thine accusing enemy  :laughing7:
