Get ready to start a journey…a journey through the pages of the Bible and the pages of your life.
Paul writes that if God isn’t who he says he is, and this life is all there is, then by all means, “let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die” (1 Cor. 15:32). But Solomon found that hedonism was like chasing after the wind. The target of satisfaction was never hit because God is who he says he is, and this life is not all there is.
Jesus lived with zeal and passion. He entered the temple area and “drove out” all who had turned worship into a money-making scam.
John knew what he was made to do. He surrendered his life to God’s assignment.
The living God will never cease to be. We can enjoy him today, tomorrow, and forever. Check your heart. Bury the dead gods. Worship El Chay.
We are the living, breathing temple of God. By the Spirit’s empowerment, our job is to represent Hashem—The Name—well.
