Don’t we live in interesting times? The election is now over, but the disorder in society is not. Below are reflections I’ve written out as a reminder that only G-d’s order endures:
The Scriptures teach that a G-d of order, in
creating a world of perfect order, dictated to His creation an expectation of
order for those who wished to be in relationship with Him.
The Scriptures teach that G-d’s world of perfect
order was corrupted by the rebellion of His perfect creation and that the
disorder of our world is perpetuated by this ongoing rebellion of G-d’s now
imperfect creation against G-d’s expectation of order.
The Scriptures teach that G-d provided a perfect
plan to restore the world to perfection, a plan that included, most importantly,
the person and actions of our perfect Messiah Yeshua.
The Scriptures teach that suffering, conflict,
confusion, prejudice, sickness and death in this now imperfect world are the
direct results of this perpetuated rebellion against G-d and His order by His
now imperfect creation, and that His imperfect creation will not ever,
regardless of secular effort, be able to bring lasting order to this now
imperfect world.
The Scriptures teach that spiritual perfection for
imperfect people can be found today for those who humbly accept Messiah
Yeshua’s atonement for themselves, making a restored relationship with G-d
possible for those who desire to live according to G-d’s expectation of order.
The Scriptures teach that the complete renewal of perfect order for G-d’s world and creation will come about only by G-d’s effort with the return of Messiah Yeshua. Maranatha!
Forward
for Messiah!
