Have you heard about the Jew speaking to Jews?

"Then Peter stepped forward with the eleven other apostles and shouted to the crowd, "Listen carefully, all of you, fellow Jews and residents of Jerusalem! Make no mistake about this." (Acts 2:14 NLT)

Acts 2:14: Verses 14-21. Peter's sermon shows that he was thoroughly recovered from his fall, and thoroughly restored to the Divine favour; for he who had denied Christ, now boldly confessed him. His account of the miraculous pouring forth of the Spirit, was designed to awaken the hearers to embrace the faith of Christ, and to join themselves to his church. It was the fulfilling the Scripture, and the fruit of Christ's resurrection and ascension, and proof of both.

""People of Israel, listen! God publicly endorsed Jesus of Nazareth by doing wonderful miracles, wonders, and signs through him, as you well know." (Acts 2:22 NLT)

Jesus is alive!

David

I guess the unusual will continue to capture my thinking from time to time. My mind is thrilled when God prompts me to know that those things which we see are temporary and those things we cannot see are permanent . Sounds contrary to human logic. It's like , since I am in this form, I should continue to be in this form. But, not so.

"So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." (2 Cor 4:18 NIV)

"But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up." (2 Pet 3:10 NKJV)
"Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness," (2 Pet 3:11 NKJV)
"looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?" (2 Pet 3:12 NKJV)
"Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells." (2 Pet 3:13 NKJV)

"Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the old heaven and the old earth had disappeared. And the sea was also gone." (Rev 21:1 NLT)

Wow! A new heaven and a new earth for the new regenerated man, all by the grace of God

Thank you Lord Jesus for dying in my place thereby taking the punishment for my sin and emancipating me from the prison of satan. Father, I am looking forward, as you know, to seeing Jesus face to face. I will be clean and pure, washed in the blood. Amen

David.
