Content three times"
Bible Text: Revelation 21:1-4
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth, and the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and there was no more sea. And I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down from heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and God dwells with them, and they shall be God's people, and God Himself was with them and wiped every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death, nor will there be any more mourning or crying or pain, for the first things have passed away.
Hallelujah!
A wonderful day has begun
I hope you start a wonderful day today with the word of God
God's Word has the power to make our lives beautiful and great.
The word of God inspired by God has the power to turn people of despair like dry bones into people of hope like a great army. words! When the nets were lowered by relying on the Word, the empty nets were filled. Live by the Word. Don't worry if your nets are empty. Trust God! God will surely fill the empty net
Today we will talk about "three times"
First, I will read the text of Revelation 21:1-4 in the Bible text.
And dear listeners who have become brothers and sisters in Christ!
What do you think of time? There are many lessons about time.
"If you love life, first you must love your time, because your life is what your time makes" (Benjamin Franklin)
"Don't lose today, you can't find today again" (Horatius)
"Time conceives and nurtures all good" (William Shakespeare. The Two Gentlemen of Verona)
"Time is my property, to time I am the heir" (Goethe Wilhelm Meistel)
We can divide these times into three
1. The first is the time of rotation, which is the cycle time. This time is a circle time. It is a repeating time of day and night, all seasons, etc. At times like these there are only repetitions with nothing new under the sun
2. The second is the time of a straight line extending forward. This time is the time of the line. It is a time of chronology. In this time there is something new
3. The third is the moment of the moment of decision in the circle and the line. This time is a time of divination. It is a time for making personal decisions.
The time of the cycle, the time of the straight line, and the time of the starting point!
Humans live in these three times. We live in the cycle of time of a circle that repeats itself over and over again, or we live in the horizon of a line that stretches out like a straight line.
It is important how a person lives in these three times. In the cycle of time, you learn the wisdom of experience. But instead of giving the wisdom of experience, the cycle of time locks the person in the loop of repetition. There is no new motivation. It becomes past-oriented. We cannot break free from the yoke of past wounds and pain
But in linear time we proclaim, "Behold, the old has passed away, the new has come." The new is coming! A new heaven and a new earth are open! “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away; behold, the new has come” (2 Corinthians 5:17).
A new one opens. You become a new creation A new history that has not been experienced in the previous world begins. In this time, we both forget the past and receive healing. The past no longer holds our ankles, but frees us toward the future. For this reason, the gospel is different from Buddhism, which emphasizes the time of cycle, which is the doctrine of reincarnation. We have a very different straight line of time that is always open to the front.
The best of these straight lines of time is the time of the new heavens and the new earth. The Lord's day when the new heavens and new earth unfold will be a completely new day that has never been seen before. Everything gets clean. Christianity runs forward towards this time
Those who are waiting for the day of the Lord are those who live in a time of a straight line that opens wide the door to the horizon of the future, not the cycle of time tied to the past. At the same time, they are people who are faithfully spending today while waiting for that day, and they are people who live by faith A in order to achieve the salvation of that day. this life today! This is the point in time. A life of confession, conversion, and testimony at the time of divination is resolution, repentance, and sanctification. In the end, the time of this point is gathered to form a line. Also, through that good time, the horizon of the future will be opened wide.
Dear listeners!
This time in which we are now living is the time of divination. These points are joined to form a line. Manage the present moment very preciously, and at each point of this hour, let my life sink into the horizon of the future so that it does not repeat the yoke of the past. God helps those who want to open the future of salvation through their own decisions moment by moment
Are you bored of life that repeats like a squirrel wheel? Do the previous wounds or pain keep coming back to you? Is there a sin that cannot be forgiven? Decide now! Dare to break the loops of the past! And open wide a new horizon for the future. A new heaven and a new earth are always open to us. The cosmic arrival of the land takes place on the Lord's Day, but the personal experience opens up to those who receive the Lord at every moment and truly stand before the Lord.
Those who become new creatures in Christ live in a completely new time. Brothers and sisters who love and beg for New Morning every morning! I pray that your wounds will be healed and that you will live a new day in which hope rises again
