This is. quotation from Habakkuk 2:5. The point from the passage is that if men scoff and refuse to obey when God visits them, they will certainly perish. "The thing about which Habakkuk spoke was the invasion by the Chaldeans. God has. hand in history, and used the Chaldeans as an instrument of judgment and punishment upon the rebellious Jews. So Paul implies similar calamities, both temporal and eternal, will come those who reject the Messiah" (Reese pp. 484-485). "You will never believe" Keep this verse in mind when someone reads. passage in the Bible and then says, "Oh,. can't believe that God would ever do that!" The Bible and history is filled with many events that people would never have believed were possible or that God would do. even if someone described it to them. Yes, God will do many things that unbelievers can't accept.
