Punishment for Righteousness (Proverbs 17:26)

There is a time coming soon when the righteous will be punished for being righteous. It is prophesied in the book of revelation and promised by our Lord. But it still does nor make it right.

"Also to punish or fine the righteous is not good, nor to smite the noble or their uprightness." Proverbs 17:26, Amplified

Though it is promised by our Lord, it still does not make it right in the spiritual scheme of things. It is not condoned by our Lord, in other words. The human heart as it strays away from the Lord is capable of so many different evils. We are coming into an age of tolerance. But this is code for intolerance of Christianity. Our Lord does not condone this and it is evident in the Book of Revelation. I have read the end of the book, we win. The Lord's intolerance of the punishment will not be quiet for long. Rest assured, if you feel like you are being smitten for your righteousness, the Lord sees and He will avenge.
