Moved from Main Page: We Should Do Something

[Sons to Glory!]

Just want to convey a little observation that I thought interesting. This morning, before I even got out of bed, I was considering this thread before the Lord. I told Him, "Whatever you want to do with that is fine with me, I give it to you." I then thought that perhaps UntoHim would just kill the whole thing (especially after fiery comments one poster made), and I realized that I was at peace with whatever God wanted to do through our moderator.

When going online I discovered that the last dozen or so messages of the regular forum thread had disappeared. I said, "Amen Lord." I then had a little realization that this was just a small picture of how God will cause the old heavens and earth to be dispensed with and consumed by fire, before giving us a new heaven and earth. As 2 Peter 3:10-11 says, "But the Day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar, the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and its works will be laid bare. Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to conduct yourselves . . . " We are encouraged not to look at the things which are going away (like Lot's wife). None of it will survive - the good (man's best), the bad (sin) and the ugly (death & man's worst) will be gone. All that will remain is what our loving God intended, and it will all be ours! (1 Cor 3:22)
