I WILL SEND A GREAT PROPHET
“Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.” “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” – (Martin Luther King, Jr.)
WE MUST RETURN
And this theme really runs throughout the entire Bible. Theologians like to call this theme “the Great Reversal.” “The Great Reversal”: that in the end, God is going to turn things upside-down–or really, rightside-up–from the way they are now in the world. We find this idea in so many places in the Bible. For instance, Mary, in her Magnificat, says of God: “He has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts; he has brought down the mighty from their thrones and exalted those of humble estate.” Both James and Peter, in their epistles, quote the same verse from Proverbs when they write: “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”- (Rev. Charles Henrickson, Pastor at St. Matthews Lutheran Church, Bonne Terre, Missouri)
