“The First thing to understand about the universe is that no condition is "good" or "bad." It just is. So stop making value judgments. The second thing to know is that all conditions are temporary. Nothing stays the same, nothing remains static. Which way a thing changes depends on you.” KnowsWayInspirationalFirstsRealityValuesUniverseReligiousConditionsDependsJudgmentRemainsTemporaryThings ChangeStaticConversations With God Book:Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue Source: Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue
“Oh, remember that as certain as the historical fact, He died on Calvary; so certain is the prophetic fact, He shall reign, and you and I will stand there. I durst not touch that subject. Take it into your own hearts, and think about it, a kingdom, a judgment-seat, a crown, a gathered universe; separation, decision, execution of the sentence.” ThinkingHeartFactsRememberCertainUniverseDecisionSubjectsJudgmentDiedHistoricalSentencesSeparationKingdomsSeatsExecutionCrownsReignPropheticCalvaryHistorical Facts Book:MacLaren's Commentary- Expositions of Holy Scripture Source: MacLaren's Commentary- Expositions of Holy Scripture
“Christ's divinity accounts for His exaltation to the right hand of God, justifies the worship of angels and the confidence of mankind. It makes clear His right to the throne of the universe, and enables the mind to understand why He is exalted in providence, in grace, and in judgment. It is the unifying truth that harmonizes all other teachings of Christianity, and renders the entire system symmetrical and complete.” MindHandsUniverseChristChristianityClearGraceTeachingMankindJudgmentWorshipAngelAccountsDivinityJustifyProvidenceThronesExaltedHands Of GodExaltationUnifyingSymmetrical Author:George C.

“Painting is... a correspondence between what you are and what you see. It's a moment when something is holding together in such a way that it is a universe in itself... Within this is a test and also a judgment upon yourself, your capabilities, your promises, and the part that you play in the world. And nobody else can test that for you. Certainly not the Museum of Modern Art.” WorldWayArtPlayMomentsTogetherUniverseModernPaintingPromiseJudgmentTestsMuseumsCapabilityModernismCorrespondenceModern Art Author:Milton Resnick
“There is no Christian Gospel if history simply unwinds into a meaningless puddle, if the cosmos simply escapes into a cataclysmic black hole, or if the universe finally dies of exhausted energy. Without belief in a biblical eschatology, there is no Christian hope. Without a sense of perfect moral judgment in the end, the human heart is homeless.” IfsHumansHeartEndsChristianDiesUniverseBeliefEnergyBlackPerfectMoralJudgmentHolesCosmosMeaninglessBiblicalHomelessExhaustedHuman HeartBlack HolePuddlesUnwindChristian HopeMoral JudgmentEschatology Author:Albert Mohler
“We should consider the possibility that many, and perhaps even all of Jesus' hell-fire or end-of-the-universe statements refer not to postmortem [after death] judgment but to the very historic consequences of rejecting his kingdom message of reconciliation and peacemaking. The destruction of Jerusalem in A.D. 67-70 seems to many people to fulfill much of what we have traditionally understood as hell.” PeopleShouldEndsSeemsUniverseJesusHellFirePossibilityJudgmentMessagesUnderstoodConsequenceDestructionStatementsKingdomsHistoricReconciliationAfter DeathJerusalemRejectingPeacemakingHell Fire Author:Brian D.
