Come TogetherPosted Jul-30-07 08:36:03 PDT You have not come to a mountain that can be touched and that is burning with fire; to darkness, gloom and storm - but you have come to Mount Zion, to the heavenly Jerusalem, the city of the living God. You have come to thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly, to the Church of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven. You have come to God, the judge of all men, to the spirits of righteous men made perfect, to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of the Abel.
Hebrews 12:18, 22-24
What a contrast between the people's terrified approach to God at Mount Sinai and their joyful approach at Mount Zion! What a difference Jesus has made! Before Jesus came, God seemed distant and threatening. After Jesus came, God welcomes us through Christ into His presence. Accept God's invitation! As Christians, we are citizens of the heavenly Jerusalem right now; because Christ rules our lives, the Holy Spirit is always with us, and we experience close fellowship with God as well as other believers. God has created us as relational people who seek out and cultivate meaning relationships with others in an effort to fulfill the Great Commision and to unify the Church in Love and Unity.
God Bless you,
JH
