If the cherubim, serephim, elders and living creatures around the throne have been fascinated for all eternity past by the revelation of God Alimighty, how can we as those who only see with simple human eyes even begin to presume that we know him?
I am reading a book called The Gospel According to Job, by Mike Mason, and ran across this quote last week:
“Isn’t it funny how a person can be a Christian and not really know the gospel? Isn’t it strange how Christ can live inside us without our really enjoying Him? But perhaps it is not so strange. After all, we have only had this gospel two thousand years. That is not a very long time for a fallen race to assimilate the incredible reality of inexhaustible mercy and eternal life. This gospel, it turns out, is not only good news, it is much better news than any of us has yet imagined.”
That put a whole new spin on the picture of eternity for me. To eternally be fascinated by the unveiling of the Eternal. – Wow! That is Good News.
