Charles Spurgeon Commentary Hebrews 10:30

"For we know him that said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense. And again, The Lord shall judge his people." — Hebrews 10:30 (ASV)

For we know him who has said, Vengeance belongs to me, I will recompense, says the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.

O professors, take this message home to your hearts! Let every one of us take it home: The Lord shall judge his people.

God's fire is in Zion, and his furnace in Jerusalem. If a man tests nothing else, he will test his gold; and if no others shall be judged, yet certainly those will be who say that they are the Lord's people.

In that dread day, he will separate the goats from the sheep, the tares from the wheat, and the dross from the gold; his fan will be in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor; he will sit as a refiner of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi; he shall be like a refiner's fire, and like fuller's soap.

Woe to those, in that day, who are a defilement to his Church, and an adulteration to the purity of his people!
