Faith & Love: A One Year Bible Reading Plan - Part 3نموونە

In chapter 13 of the book of Mark, verse 31, Jesus says heaven and earth will pass away, but his word will remain. He is saying these words during a time when He was stating all the devastating things that will take place. I can imagine how disheartening this would have been to his disciples, but in the middle of it all, He gives them hope when he says his word will forever remain. In other words, if they hold on to His word, they will be kept through trials and tribulations. The Apostle John states that "in the beginning was the word and the word was God, and the word was with God." This word is Jesus himself, He is God’s eternal love communicated to us. Since Jesus will remain, then the Love of God will remain too. We are dearly Loved.

Ask yourself: "Have I been holding on to God’s eternal word (love) or to the things that will pass away?

I am convinced that it is the Love of God we should be holding on to because it’s eternal.
