Advents Feria


Friends in Christ,
Christian Greetings from down under, New Zealand. The picture above " the First and the Last " is appropriate to a portion of Psalm 90:2, which I would like to share with you. " Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God"
We live in a world where we are always occupied with the concept of time, there is a beginning and an end to everything, even to our journey as a Pilgrim through this barren land. ( You know the well-know hymn, which talks about being a Pilgrim in this barren land.) Everything around us is so temporary and can be so superficial , would you not agree with me? During this season of Advent, we focus on Christ coming again on the clouds of heaven, then there will be a new Heaven and New earth, which are everlasting. God's Kingdom is everlasting. It is hard for you and I sometimes to grasp the concept of eternity and ' things everlasting' , but the more we follow our Blessed Lord Jesus Christ, the more we will touch the things that last forever.
Amen.
Ed Bakker
