Eternity

“And I give unto them eternal life;” (John 10: 28)

Where did God come from? Man cannot comprehend eternity with no beginning and no end. It makes no sense to the carnal mind that God has always existed, and was never created, but we believe it by faith. This mind-boggling truth is logically impossible, but nevertheless it is true. Why then is it so hard for us to believe that the Bible is the Word of God? Or that the earth was formed by God’s spoken Word, or any other great Truth of scripture? The Bible answers it simply in Mt 19:26 “But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.” It is not for us to know all things, that is God’s attribute, and His only. He must hold back some things and limit the human mind lest we presume to be like Him. “All things are possible” with our Lord, and nothing can confuse or confound Him. We must trust in His great wisdom, which is much greater than our own, and rely on His loving grace day by day to see us through. Everything man knows has a beginning and an end, everything except our God. What an amazing Being He is.
One day we will be a part of that vast eternity, entering into it by faith; this, of course, is not a surprise to our God who has determined before the foundation of the world that mortal men would lose their mortality, and enter into eternity. That day may be soon for some, and later for others, according to God’s perfect will, but all men are invited and find unity at Calvary.
