We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

It was [Paul’s] mission as the “apostle to the Gentiles,” and it is the universal church’s mission as well, to promote that harmony of cultures in Christ that the cross brings them (or, we might say, forces upon them for their good). Imagine what it took for this former Jewish leader to accept that the Jews’ lofty position as God’s chosen people is not ultimately about ethnic Jews, but only Jewish Christians who share the position with “Gentile dogs” who have also become Christians. The promises made to the Jews are for all who are in Christ; the inheritance is both for Jews and Gentiles. We are all members of one body. The immensity of this new knowledge is not only enough to cause every God-fearing Jew to scream curses at Paul, but is the very reason Gentiles like me have any hope whatsoever. Paul carried this message everywhere.

93:1 De HEERE regeert, Hij is met hoogheid bekleed; de HEERE is bekleed met sterkte, Hij heeft Zich omgord. Ook is de wereld bevestigd, zij zal niet wankelen.

93:2 Van toen af is Uw troon bevestigd, Gij zijt van eeuwigheid af.

93:3 De rivieren verheffen, o HEERE! de rivieren verheffen haar bruisen; de rivieren verheffen haar aanstoting.

93:4 Doch de HEERE in de hoogte is geweldiger dan het bruisen van grote wateren, dan de geweldige baren der zee.

93:5 Uw getuigenissen zijn zeer getrouw; de heiligheid is Uw huize sierlijk, HEERE! tot lange dagen.
