Some have been quick to say that the things that are happening are G-D’s punishment. This can cause a hopeless spirit; to influence the world into thinking that there is no chance, no way back, no use in trying to be at peace with G-D. This portrayal of G-D as someone who is always angry, ready to go off at any minute, for any; or even no reason at all, only serves the enemy of all mankind. Leviticus 26: gives an insight into what G-D’s real purpose is, and how He is thinking toward those; who stop pursuing; the best way to live. He shows how good it will be if; we stay close to Him, and also the increasing severity of problems that He will allow, if we continue to move further from G-D. The purpose is to help us to come closer to Him, where we can be safe.
Yes it will end badly, if we don’t turn from the wicked ways.
Be carful not to think; that turning back; will somehow remove all the damage that we have done, it won’t, but it will restore life and give us a way toward G-D.
If there is still doubt; as to how important this is to G-D, look into how much He gave for the life of the world.
