Hear Him

Jesus once said: “My testimony is valid, because I know where I came from and where I’m going.” An understanding of our origin and final destiny has a greater influence on our ‘now’ – our present experience – than anything else.

This great gospel has the most awesome origin and the most triumphant conclusion. In the beginning, before creation, before time as we experience it, before the existence of evil, the God who is love planned to share this love with beings created in His image and likeness. This God, who is all-knowing and able to accomplish all of His purposes, planned a love-affair that would span over eons and conclude with a final victory in which His love conquered all – no contradiction; no evil, for death will die. This gospel is not some new idea, but the ancient, original thought of God. The challenges to our faith and the questions asked of it are not new either, however, we should never allow our answers to become stale. The truth of this message is ever fresh as it finds resonance in us.
