Listen To My Heart, Yardstick

-
Again, a huge jump between updates! School has given me quite a lot to do. In about a month I'll be done though, so perhaps I'll be able to resume weekly updates when summer rolls around.

This time, I have something a little different. You get to watch someone else give the object lesson and the sermon. I will of course provide my share of comments for you to read afterwards
:)

This is a sermon from the Moody Science Institute, which used to (perhaps still does?) put out very thought provoking sermons based on science. My family has a set of tapes from them, all of which date back to the 1950's. This is one of those sermons, which I ripped myself with a TV-Card, so you'll have to put up with a little VHS residue. It's 26 minutes long, and it is definitely worth a watch!

So click the little button below and prepare to be amazed!

Moody Science - Time and Eternity



My comments below, watch the video first!

















While I worked in the library at Southern, I would often give myself assignments to do during slow nights. One night, I decided I would learn to comprehend Time/Space relativity. Did I accomplish my task? NOT AT ALL. I spent two hours reading about how this works, and I could probably spend the rest of my life studying it and never get it. Einstein "discovered" it with his formula of E=Mc2, but I doubt he grasped it entirely either.

It's one of those incredible facts of science that give you a better understanding as to just how amazing and incomprehensible God really is.

Watching Dr. Moon's sermon definitely made me ponder my past a little. Once again, I am reminded just how important our time usage is. This video was made in 1955, and Dr. Moon is almost certainly dead. But go far enough out into space and he's busy making the video we just watched (at least from the perception of the far away viewer.)

And it made me realize again that we can't just discard the past because it exists only in our memories (if that.) What we did in the past will once again be put in front of us, and only an omnipotent, omnipresent, and omnitempus (I made a new word! from the Latin, meaning "all times") God can erase our sins from it.

And we can trust that he will do just that. So make the best use of your time while you have it, never taking for granted the sheer wonder of God's gift of forgiveness.

As far as the east is from the west,so far has He removed our transgressions from us.
Psalm 103:12
