Job 19:25-27

"25 I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end he will stand upon the earth. 26 And after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God; 27 I myself will see him with my own eyes-I, and not another. How my heart yearns within me!"

Ezekiel 33:1-11

1 The word of the LORD came to me: 2 "Son of man, speak to your countrymen and say to them: 'When I bring the sword against a land, and the people of the land choose one of their men and make him their watchman, 3 and he sees the sword coming against the land and blows the trumpet to warn the people, 4 then if anyone hears the trumpet but does not take warning and the sword comes and takes his life, his blood will be on his own head. 5 Since he heard the sound of the trumpet but did not take warning, his blood will be on his own head. If he had taken warning, he would have saved himself. 6 But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet to warn the people and the sword comes and takes the life of one of them, that man will be taken away because of his sin, but I will hold the watchman accountable for his blood.'

7 "Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me. 8 When I say to the wicked, 'O wicked man, you will surely die,' and you do not speak out to dissuade him from his ways, that wicked man will die for his sin, and I will hold you accountable for his blood. 9 But if you do warn the wicked man to turn from his ways and he does not do so, he will die for his sin, but you will have saved yourself.

10 "Son of man, say to the house of Israel, 'This is what you are saying: "Our offenses and sins weigh us down, and we are wasting away because of them. How then can we live?" ' 11 Say to them, 'As surely as I live, declares the Sovereign LORD , I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that they turn from their ways and live. Turn! Turn from your evil ways! Why will you die, O house of Israel?'

We read this passage in church last week. Amazing implications for our responsibility to evangelize and make desciples.

God and space and time

Is God outside of time? Someone recently told me that they believe that God is not outside of time but rather in an infinite number of dimensions of time. But I have a prblem with that. It seems that to place God in any sort of dimension at all would be to constrain Him. To be in any number of space dimensions would be constraining. To be in any number of time dimensions would be constraining. Infinite is still a number. To deal with dimensions is to deal with movement. Does God move through time even if in an infinite number of directions and dimensions? Something tells me no. Dimensions were created and the Creator cannot be a part of them. Or were they created?

The problem with having an intuative mind instead of an analytical one is that things like this are difficult for me to analyze. My brain tells me that I am right but its difficult to tell why. Maybe someone with a diferent way of thinking could give this a little critical thought as well and tell me what they think. Everyone tell me what you think.

Hebrews 11:8

"By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going."
