Exodus 37:1-29; Psalm 89:19-52; Acts 22:1-21
For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 1 Timothy 2:2
In western nations, we are witnessing a rapidly growing contempt for Christians. While being compelled to accept—not just tolerate—every imaginable belief and ideology, we are simultaneously hearing the way of truth being evil spoken of (2 Peter 2:2). Our reaction can understandably be one of hopeless despair. Yet
surely we are witnessing the final act in humanity’s passion play of rebellion against our God and His Son. Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus! —Rick Morse
I can almost hear His footfall, on the threshold of the door,
And my heart, my heart is longing, to be with Him evermore. —S. Trevor Francis
