I was on the phone today with my younger brother, Dave. We had a very
long conversation about how he is fixing up the homestead in Melrose,
N.Y.. I can't wait to see the pictures, as he has worked on just about
every room of that old farmhouse. I can only remember the place being a
wreck, so I am hoping that the new pictures will etch new memories and
perhaps give me a new perspective about where I grew up. One thing is
for sure- I haven't lived there since 1968, so some things HAVE
CHANGED!!! At the same time, it is comforting to know that the things
of God have NOT CHANGED; that God has given his "LAST WORD" to us on the
spiritual things that really matter!!!! And that word is through
Jesus...
Hebrews, Chapter 1 (WEB)
1 God, having in the past spoken to the fathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, 2 has
at the end of these days spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed
heir of all things, through whom also he made the worlds.
Now,
I have lived in the 20th and the 21st century and have seen the advent
of the computer age and it is marvellous!!! As a result, some things
(like the internet) have changed the way I live. The good news is that
the truths of the Gospel is still the same. While I may read the Bible
on a computer screen as often as I read a paper Bible, still, the truth
is the same!!! And like the graphic above, even if I view it through
fifty glasses (mediums of understanding) the same truth exists. I guess
the only way I will know the spiritual things of God any better is to
have Jesus explain them to me- in person. Can't wait- can you??
