> Some teachings of the Bible are so simple and clear that they are > beyond theologians' "interpretation." They are rock-bottom truths that > even an innocent child can see, for example: > > God is love. > > * He so loves that He has given and He gives His only Son to save us > from an eternal hell; He teaches us to love others with the same love > wherewith He loves us; a clear and powerful proclamation of that love > is what Jesus means by "this gospel of the kingdom" (Matt. 24:14); > > * It will be proclaimed so clearly that it is yet to "lighten the > earth with glory" (Rev. 18:1-4); > > * God has true people who as yet don't understand the message, "other > sheep not of this fold," for whom He is also their "Good Shepherd" as > He is ours (John 10:11-16); > > * These people are in "Babylon," that is, scattered in the confusion > of conflicting religions around the world (Rev. 14:8; 18:3); > > * They will hear His voice in the proclamation of that final Good News > message (John 10:4); > > * The love of Christ will bind them all in "one body" of believers > (Eph. 4:4-7) who will have come "out of great tribulation, and have > washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the > Lamb" (Rev. 7:1-4, 14); > > * God so loves these people that He wants to "abide" with them > forever, hence the resurrection and translation at the second coming > of Jesus. > > Muslims as yet don't understand this, but there are some among them > who will perk up when they hear it and will "come out of Babylon" when > the message is proclaimed clearly. They will leave the legalism of > Islam and will embrace "the truth of the gospel," "as the truth is in > Jesus" (Gal. 2:5, 14; Eph. 4:21; a child can see that we must > understand "this gospel" first!). > > Take care of your health; live until Jesus comes; there is great > history before us! > > --Robert J.
