Outsiders Brought In

Isaiah 56:1-8 56:1 This is what the Lord says: “Maintain justice    and do what is right,for my salvation is close at hand    and my righteousness will soon be revealed.2 Blessed is the one who does this—    the person who holds it fast,who keeps the Sabbath without desecrating it,    and keeps their hands from doing any evil.” 3 Let no foreigner who is bound to the Lord say,    “The Lord will surely exclude me from his people.”And let no eunuch complain,    “I am only a dry tree.” 4 For this is what the Lord says: “To the eunuchs who keep my Sabbaths,    who choose what pleases me    and…

Light and Darkness, Sin and Forgiveness

1 John 1:5-2:2 1:5 This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. 6 If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. 8 If we claim to be without…

Woman of Valor (Mother’s Day)

Proverbs 31:10-31 10 A wife of noble character who can find?    She is worth far more than rubies.11 Her husband has full confidence in her    and lacks nothing of value.12 She brings him good, not harm,    all the days of her life.13 She selects wool and flax    and works with eager hands.14 She is like the merchant ships,    bringing her food from afar.15 She gets up while it is still night;    she provides food for her family    and portions for her female servants.16 She considers a field and buys it;    out of her earnings she plants…

The Joy We Will Experience in the New Heaven and the New Earth

Section 9: The End Times Week 4: The New Heaven and the New Earth Day 5: The Joy We Will Experience in the New Heaven and the New Earth Rev. 21-22 What will eternal life be like? Whatever else we might say about eternal life in the new heaven and the new earth, it will be place of great joy. How could it not be if the curse has been removed, along with every trace of suffering, sin, and death?…

Eternity in the New Heaven and the New Earth

Section 9: The End Times Week 4: The New Heaven and the New Earth Day 4: Eternity in the New Heaven and the New Earth Rev. 22 We keep using the word eternity. What does it mean though? With respect to God, the term refers to the fact that he exists outside of time and therefore doesn’t have a beginning or an end. When it comes to the new creation, we often think of it in similar terms – time…

The Joining of Heaven and Earth

Section 9: The End Times Week 4: The New Heaven and the New Earth Day 3: The Joining of Heaven and Earth Rev. 21:1-7 As we had a chance to discuss earlier, God is omnipresent. That is, he is present everywhere at all at once. Nevertheless, it is clear God manifests his presence more powerfully at certain times in certain places. We call the place where God most powerfully manifest his presence heaven.[i] Yesterday we talked about the idea many…

The Renewal of the Earth

Section 9: The End Times Week 4: The New Heaven and the New Earth Day 2: The Renewal of the Earth 2 Peter 3:3-14 We noted earlier that eternity will share the same fundamental physical/material structure as the current universe. That is not to say there won’t be significant differences though. Sin corrupted the original creation. But God intends to renew/restore it. The most dramatic picture of that process comes from Peter: The Lord is not slow in keeping his…
