WHAT IS MAN?

Image
  What is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him?  (Ps.8:4 NKJV) The answer to this question must necessarily be elucidated scripturally. Only God has the full meaning to His purpose for creating man and the fullness of creation. We read that in five days God prepared ahead all that man would need as a living being, then created man on the sixth day and breathed life into him. 'And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being. (Gen. 2:6-7). Then He spent the seventh day resting (Gen. 2:2).  So God had all along been desiring fellowship with man. In order to fulfill this plan, not only did He make man in His likeness, He formed the garden in Eden where He would visit man in the cool of the day to roost with him. (Gen. 3:8). Another question arises here. We are told God created man male and female. (Gen. 1:27). Why did God make room for procreation? If we r...

INFINITUDE OF GOD

  “ Take a long, hard look. See how great He is—infinite, greater than anything you could ever imagine or figure out!  (Job 36:26 MSG) I ran away from additional mathematics in school when our teacher, a slightly eccentric South African genius, started taking us in abstract topics like calculus, permutations, infinity equations and sums 'tending to zero'. My artistic mind couldn't comprehend such topics on calculations, so I stopped. Infinity is defined in mathematics as an infinitely or indefinitely great number or amount; in general physics as a dimension or quantity of sufficient size to be unaffected by finite variations, while In optics, it is a point that is far enough away from a lens, mirror, prism, etc for the light emitted by it to fall in parallel rays on the surface of the reflecting object.    Infinite means endless in time, space, or quantity. The latest attempt at estimating the vastness of the universe states: 'In the observable universe, Earth is ju...

NEW YEAR, NEW HEART

Image
  “Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness And rivers in the desert."  ( Isaiah 43:18-19 NKJV) As each year rolls by, I reiterate on my achievements in the year just ended. Invariably, I find I have entered another year with many requests from God still outstanding, unanswered. What can the matter be?  Has'nt God promised to grant us the desires of our heart? Has He not said He would crown the year with fatness? One writer quipped, "As the calendar turns to January, we’re filled with hope that the new year is going to be different, that things are going to be better. But, God doesn’t make us better—He makes us new!" I couldn't agree with her less! More than anything, the fault is in our hearts! There is a condition to fulfill first. Something has to change in our lives for our total fulfilment to start coming.  The ...
