Wrong Legalized
Homilist
Psalm 94:20
Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with you, which frames mischief by a law?


I. INIQUITY HAS A "THRONE" ON EARTH. It is a ruling power, it has the sway everywhere. Wrong is an imperial power.

II. The "throne" of iniquity is INCOMPATIBLE WITH GOD. "Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with Thee?" Impossible. It is eternally antagonistic to the Divine nature, law, and procedure.

III. The "throne" of iniquity LEGALIZES WRONG. "Which frameth mischief by a law." In England wrong is legalized. What is war but legalized murder, monopoly but legalized dishonesty, unrestrained accumulation of wealth but legalized greed? What wrongs, alas, our fathers have legalized, from which we are suffering to-day.

(Homilist.)
