Matthew 24:35
35Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
In the lectionary readings that we have during the end of November and throughout Advent, we hear a lot about the end-of-time prophecies. Some of them are specific, referencing judgment methods, while others give hints about the signs that will take place and how people will know that the end is near.
I have no idea when the end will come. And, most days that doesn't concern me. However, what is of great importance to me is the steadfast nature of the words of Jesus. These are the words to which we cling, and ultimately, as the Word became flesh -- we cling to our salvation in the Word as Jesus. The rest? Well, that will all pass away.
Peace,
Pastor Jenn
PS. Join together this evening for dinner at 6:00 and worship at 7:00 as we dwell in the hope and anticipation of Advent.
