Unfathomable

Today (Tuesday), I finished my Through My Bible journey, which began in January 2024.  And today I began that journey again with a different translation – ESV. 

Look again at Today’s Scripture Picture. 
We cannot fathom the horrors described here, and because of that, I think (me included), that we do not allow ourselves to ponder on it, nor that people are going there, or that it really exists. It seems beyond human comprehension of an eternity in this place. 
And yet I have to ask if we can believe, expect, and even anticipate eternity in Heaven, why would there not be hell too?

If there is (and there is) a blissful (and that’s putting it unfathomably mildly) eternity for those who have surrendered to JESUS the CHRIST, why would there not be eternal damnation for those who refuse to surrender to Him? 
I mean, GOD said this is the way it is, who are we to argue with HIM? 

It really is that simple. 
And at the same time, just that unfathomable. 

Perhaps that is why it is called faith, trust.

A Quick Onset

Image from You Version

Two years ago, I began a Bible Reading Journey. I purposed to read from Genesis to Maps, steadily, slowly, and studiously.  I have done that. Today I started the last book, Revelation. 
It has indeed been slow, but it has been the best read of my 74 years!  

First, let me say what The Book says: it is the revelation of JESUS CHRIST!  But wait, you might say, I thought the Gospels were the revelation of JESUS. And they are. The Gospels reveal the Suffering Servant, The GODMAN, our Redeemer, the Passover Lamb, The Friend of Sinners, the list could go on and on of the Awesomeness He is. 

But here, in Revelation, He is revealed to us as He is now and forevermore:  KING of Kings and LORD of Lords!

To those who have crowned Him as their King of Kings and their LORD of Lords, this is a book of Hope. 

As I am compelled, I will share more with you, but for now, just know the book of Revelation is not meant to be a mystery, as many have described it. No, indeed, the very name is Revelation. GOD is not about keeping His Son a secret; He wants us to KNOW Him. Hence, Revelation. 

Perhaps you will use this weekend to acquaint or re-acquaint yourself with this Book, which will play out just as written, and when it begins, it will be a quick onset and a fast-moving conclusion. 

Holy hugs, Kathie
