KNOWN

“We are assured and know that all things work together

for good and and for good to and for those who love God

and are called according to His design and purpose.

For those whom He foreknew, He also destined from

the beginning to be molded into the image of His Son,

that He might become the firstborn among many brethren.

And those whom He thus foreordained, He also called;

and those whom He called, he also justified.

And those whom He justified, He also glorified (raising

them to a heavenly dignity and state of being).

(Romans 8.28-30).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

This is divine knowledge by God. It can be discerned only

through the Holy Spirit shed abroad in our hearts. This is

not concrete,tangible or visible. If it were so, it would not

be by faith. Hope that is fulfilled requires no faith. But

this hope never disappoints, because the Father’s love is

communicated to us through the Son and the Holy Spirit

to our hearts. Men can not avoid the void and fear,

the futility and desperation of life and death.

They seek God with groans which can not be uttered.

They say as Job:

“I know that my Redeemer and Vindicator lives and

at last He shall stand upon the earth!”

God’s response to men’s highest and most earnest yearning

is expressed in Christ Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

God’s love for us is is proclaimed by angels loud and clear:

“Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace among men

with whom He is well pleased!”

We enter the MORE EXCELLENT WAY OF GOD’S LOVE

(AGAPE LOVE) for us and our corresponding love

to Him made possible by the Holy Spirit He sent.

This is possible when we mature and put away childish

things. This love can never fail. Of the three remaining,

of hope, faith and love, the greatest is love, because, love

hopes all things and faith works by love. (I.Cor.13.13).

(Gal. 5.6).

All things work for good for those who love God and are

called according to His purpose. Because in experiencing

and expressing God’s love our greatest expectation is fulfilled.

The expression of God’s love is met in Jesus Christ and Him crucified.

The Way, the Truth and the Life! The Resurrection and the Life!

He declares ‘us not guilty!’ and blessed and His own!

We are united to God, the Ancient of Days in the Holy Communion.
