Forever
God is eternal. The Lord and his Word will stand forever. God promises
to continue his work in us as well (see Philippians 1:6). He promises
to never stop loving us. An evidence of this love is the salvation he
gives us - it doesn't end! God proved this through Jesus' death, forever
guaranteeing our forgiveness, and by giving us the Holy Spirit as our
guide to living a godly life.
Unlike
the boss who retires or the president whose term is complete, nothing
will force God out of power. In fact, the Bible tells us that God will
always rule, and whatever he establishes cannot be altered by anyone.
When everything else seems to change so quickly, God will always be the
same.
God's
love for us will go on forever.
1 Chronicles 16:34
Psalm 136
Jesus is forever a priest, the mediator between God the Father
and us. He gives us the Holy Spirit as proof that we belong to God. Through
these actions, we can know that our sins are forgiven and that our salvation
will never end.
