Katherine's comment on 2010-07-27 14:04:09:
When the sinner is in distress, he or she will finally turn to God. Even though they will hurry to get his help, he will refuse them. God is jealous as it states in Deuteronomy 4:24, “For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.” God does not take second to anything, including oneself.
