Today I had the opportunity to talk to my church about the way God thinks. We are starting a new message series called The Second Advent - dealing with all the activities surrounding the second coming of Jesus Christ. I told the church that the events of the end times are not negotiable . . . they are going to come to pass. In fact, God was able to play out every scenario in his infinite mind before Genesis 1:1 ever happened, so God would not have enacted His plan if He was not pleased with the ultimate outcome. In Revelation chapter 8, the Bible speaks of a star that falls from the heavens and contaminates the earth's water so that people who drink it will die. Some have said that this star could be some kind of asteroid. If that is true, then I believe the asteroid was created and set on a trajectory towards the earth at the same time God created the heavens and the earth. God's mind is so infinite and His will so sovereign that to Him it's like end time events have already happened. I don't claim to be able to think like God but the Bible does teach me that He knows the end from the beginning, and that his will is going to happen whether we like it or not.CAP
